The rolltop boxes are going to be a paint to cover in vinyl.

I didn;t bother on my car. I just left the rear one in wood... nobdy sees it anyway unless they look for it.

Ashman,

I think that may be the best idea. although painting them black may look good as a contrast to the grey interior. It depends on which way I go with the rest of the car.

This time I will post pix. I have not done so yet due to some other things that have taken me from the car. It is time.

the roll top box can be done, but it is time consuming. you have to apply the vinyl in one piece, then cut across all the slits...

I tried it once, but never bothered to try again as of yet.

Exactly around two years or so ago..



A few weeks ago...







The clear corners I bought broke when i took one out (I got bored of them so I put the half amber ones back)

I tried one of those avantgarde grille but it was so flimsy I got rid of it

other than some other interior mods, the only thing I did to the exterior is the wheels

I put the Euro plate away too as it's becoming played out over here...

The rest of the pics are:

lots of cars
I wonder how would it look if you paint those chrome fender strips body color? Or even weld them on the car and fill them smooth to make them look like fender flairs.

My new ride!

I've had this car for about a month now and am enjoying it very much. The 8 cylinder engine is fabulous! Love this site.
