I finally got the chance to read through this long thread and the car looks real good.

Never got a chance to meet you guys here in New York City. Hopefully I will be able to say hello real soon. Flushing to Woodhaven is my daily commute but I used to live in Downtown Manhattan and Dyker Heights in Brooklyn.

If I ever need help, I will know how to ask ... ahem, Waveykat.

Oh...Just went through all 24 pages...Some years ha? And you where talking about selling it a few years back and still have it..Cool..

You put in a big amout of dough in this car and several sets of wheels...And here I come with my facelift thread and you get even more ideas now from me..hahaha.....You do them and you will have a brutal car..

I think you should add the wheels I have on mine..It woud make your car SOOO much rawer and perfect...

And when it comes to your color on the car I JUST LOVE IT!!!! Soo rare and cool...Even over here you never se that color..

Thanks for posting that pic of the headliner; looks great! That's just what I'd like to do - would match the fabric liner under the panorama roof. Guess it's time to email Steve about black handles.
