^^Not to put either one of you down but it's his vehicle, and regardless if he is ever going to sell it or not I'm sure someone is looking at it and likes it, maybe neither of you like it but taste is not black and white to the extent where the vehicle will not be admired by anyone else.
On that note
It looks good Dust2Dust Keep up those mods and we shall await the finished product

Just want to also let them know about selling in the future. Just that you might not have the audience who would get you the price you would sell as if it was the way it looked when it was driven out of the dealership.
We do have our opinions. Also, please note we didn't say anything, so what's the fuss about?

lol mikey are you causing trouble.
I wouldnt do all your exterior/blinkers blue unless you have a hook up on your state inspection plus you can get a really expensive ticket if police see you since certain light colors are designated for government vehicles.
Only window visors are the cheapo ebay ones or the weathertech visors for our cars.

it looks like they installed it pretty well... any shots during the day? of the back seats?
also... how much did it run you?
if you had extra fabric left over... you should line the trunk.

I agree, the shop did a great job!
I'm sure you're happy with it.
Did your original mirror have the self dimming feature or the garage door opener?

Frame damage!
Sorry to hear that, but it's pretty amazing what can be done with a frame rack. I remember when frame damage was a total.
Presumably, your dad has a frame rack and you'll get her back straight.
Good luck!

Good luck with the repairs. If it makes you feel better at all, our early model coupes have horrible rust protection, so you would have probably had to replace those front fenders relatively soon - I had both of mine replaced this past spring, as rust was popping up everywhere.
I'm not really understanding this. Any hood vent will not be functional anyway, so no real reason to cut into the hood, so if you're going to do it, why not save yourself the headache and do a fake one? Just a thought.
