The black on the inside is a great idea. The inside of 'glass bodies need to be protected and waterproofed. Over time, unprotected fiberglass that is subjected to moisture will begin to delaminate. I coat the inside of all fiberglass cars I work on. Besides, makes them look nicer til you get around to putting upholstery in them!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Dave, I never thought of the waterproofing aspect, but you are right. Funny you should mention the nice look until upholstery happens. I had exactly the same thought today, maybe I will drive it sans upholstery for a while and the solid color will at least look better.
I really liked the Duplicolor Truck Bed Liner I got. It brushed on quick and easy and didn't dry like some of the liners I have seen that are like sandpaper. This stuff is pretty smooth.

Brian, I also understand some type of undercoating under fenders keeps down rock chips and stars. I never run fenders so I didn't pay attention to what product guys use.
