Wow you brought it back looks a lot better. If you ever want to sell it, there's a cat at work that's been bugging me to find him a t- top.

Posted by LUCKY 187 (Member # 4347) on :
 
Teal was what I was thinking for so long. Maybe on some 10th anniversarys.
 
Posted by NEIGHT (Member # 8741) on :

You think black or the dark gray? What's it called anthracite or something like that.

Nice, t-tops are the shit ..btw, good install on the gears, haven't heard a peep just changed the fluid.
 
Posted by 166 Merlot (Member # 1549) on :
 
Antracite, Is that the same as Gunmetal?

But thats a big negative on Teal = Narta! the truth.

Red or Black would go hard IMO. If I were painting my coupe again I'd definitely go red... Or maybe black. Only question is if u want to trim black the moldings or match the paint.

I need me a top [Whoo Whooooo!]

Wats the sticker say 2Tone?

Shit thanks for all the positive replies. I was kinda stalling out on this project but seeing the response started to motivate me.

I'm glad those gears are holding up. I forgot I did them actually but now I remember. that's the one thing I miss from working at that shop.
 
Posted by 2TONE (Member # 4216) on :
 
Well u know ima need some gears done too if u wanna do. A built rearend job for me...when and if u get ur press..no rush when the coupe is running
