    I think the license plate panel should be Continental Orange.

    John, my opinion is of course bias, but I've always felt that the two tone look is special... And, that color combination you've chosen looks fantastic.

    The problem with a two-tone look is that anyone who sees the car outside of our circles will think that it is waiting to visit the paint shop. The fact that you contrasted the rear apron as well as the deck gives some clue to the clueless that perhaps it is intentional. Good choice.

    Car looks great. Shame with all of your photography skills and gear that you can only give us snapshots from a parking lot!

    compliments on a very clean, good-looking car. Well done.

    Question: In studying the front end it appears to me that you have cut away the brackets for mounting the fog-light covers in the front bumper.

    Am I seeing things, or did you actually cut & remove them.
