That is really nice. Now pick up one of them 'silver style' hood emblems to replace the gold one you have and you'll be stylin'!

I love that color. I want to get mine painted because the black is starting to look really bad, and that was almost the exact color I was thinking of going with. Looks really nice man.

Any insight on hood scoops and side scoops? I like the triangle scoop on GT1's and on Vipers.

Anyone know how to fix cracks in the dash? Do those crack kits at Autozone work?

Love it!!! - my "S" is the EXACT same color. I get some comments from people saying that it looks more like a "ninties" color, and can't believe the car was made in the eighties. Did you have them do it in the original factory Nautic Metallic that was released in 87-88? Or did they (the folks who painted it) cook up something similar on their own?

Great car, by the way.
