Yeah, pink orange, and blue I think it the combo, should pop. I can go either way on the caps, black or red, and do have the install kit.

Those stay centered? Would be a bummer if they were offset and did like an elliptical thing in the middle of the wheel, might hypnotize someone if they look at them going down the road.

So was at the shop Friday, and they recommended that the paint out gas some before applying the stripes. I'm fine with that, especially if I scratch it while I'm assembling, will be easier to repair.

So they are installing the hood, trunk lid, endura, and a few other items, this week, and are planning to send it home with me on Friday. That would make me pretty darn happy!

Time to start getting it trimmed out, and get to the interior. Think I might take a week off, get a good start on some of that stuff.

Now if my billet crank would only sell! This would be a good time for some additional cash!

Well, guess the question now is, black or red center caps?

Buddy of mine was up at the shop yesterday, snapped a shot of the endura being mounted. Crappy pic, but still captured some of the color...

I will be up there Friday, it should be very close to being 'released' by then....

You could always go by the build date of the car...but my gut tells me black...with the pink stripes I think the red caps will clash.

I looked at examples last night, and yeah, black would be the way to go.

So go up this morning to pick the car up, it's ready to come home for me to get started on trim out and assembly.

Once I have that done I will take it back, have th stripes installed, and any blemishes repaired.

Here's a shot the one body guy just shot me, and it's waiting to go onto the rollback.

I'll get some more shots once I get it home....

Don't you just love it when your car is released from paint jail?

Anxious to see it striped and trimmed out.
