Well grabbed a soft plastic red 500 the other day and finally got done with it.  Don't think it turned out that bad for one of my first soft 500's.  The cord, even though cleaned, still seems a bit dark.

Very nice, I really should get round to finishing off my red WE500, I'm just too scared to attempt the smoothing round where I fixed the crack and polishing it all up... :D

Those red ones always look sharp all cleaned up.  Those cords don't look too dark to me.

You noticed that, too, Dennis? I'd say the cover isn't on the hookswitch correctly, or that it is stuck down under them...

In the before pics I had already started tearing it apart when I realized I hadnt taken any pics. Quick fix was to toss the housing back on.
