The tape is to stop the doors from swinging open when the car is being rotated on the rotisserie.

Some colour on the insides of the hang ons:
Colour co-ordinated dash, something different from a plain saturn black, will be pinstriped at a later date
In the booth for some colour:
All painted and getting a good buff over
Paint work all done and waiting for tow truck
All hang ons secured with duct tape, on the truck coming home
Special thanks go to Steve, Gary and Rowdy of Lizard designs for all the bodywork and paint.
