Just wait till you see her shining in the Canada sun in a month.

Smelly'* is half maroon, half purple i'd guess. Maybe i'll put some up of ours together (gee that doesn't happen all the time)....

i assume you are going to have it painted somewhere ? i think you will be in for sticker shock. a ton of extra labor to change the color of a car. trunk bottom, door jabs , inside of fenders. all have to be repainted to do it right. :?

That will have to go for painting it, and yes you can buy new stuff from GM too.
