Seriously... I have no idea what all this talk of "damage" is about.
All it needed was a good wax and buff and all the little scratches come out.
Sissies.
Before:

After a simple wash and wax... (um and a new hatch, primer, paint, and a Sunday afternoon...)

It would appear that collateral damage was substantial and the anaconda reached out and bit hard :D

Glad to see you were able to buff it out.

Good catch. That's my son. He wears a seat belt while we are moving. In the tippy pic, we are completely stopped and he's "leaning my way" to "help with balance".

Once we started going again, he put it back on (as did I). For the really serious obstacles, he gets out of the Jeep (at my request) for safety (especially waterfalls and off camber climbs).

Once I get a full cage, then he can stay in the rig with a helmet.

Nothing is more important than my boy.

Did your glass bust out on the trial? if it did, did you clean it up?

I talked to Alanzona before Rockfest. The glass fell into the back of the XJ in 1 piece. It did not break.
