I just pulled mine off last weekend and installed new speakers. My speaker covers were blue also. I removed them and sprayed them with black duplicolor fabric/vinyl dye. Worked really good. I hope your repair goes well.
Almost done...My OCD acted up and I'm trying to make it better but here is the almost finished result. Very happy so far Complete process pics to come.
I picked up my 90 Convertible after getting the Mid America Motorworks Corvette Stainless Steel Quad Power Mufflers installed, also I installed rear KYB KG5571 Gas-a-Just rear shocks last week. I like the sound from the exhaust, throaty enough without being too loud, plus my wife is really happy the droning is gone. The old exhaust was rusted and droned really bad, so much that the wife did not want to ride in it.
Next up is getting the water pump and pads/rotors installed (front & rear) tomorrow and then I plan on just enjoying it for a little while.
I bled my brakes, added a couple gallons of Sunoco Unleaded Race Fuel, added a quart of Royal Purple Race Oil, check the tranny and diff fluids, and gave it a once over for the A AS event the weekend after next.
Good luck man! Get us some video of that wicked C4 one day, please
Hmm, well okay, that might be a little difficult. I am an old guy from the old school, I don't have any Go-Pros or any other technology gadgets to capture any video. However, my car does have GPS only for the speedometer.
Actually pulled her outta the barn, picked up the wife in the driveway and went to a car show in Blissfiled Michigan. I won a basket full of candy so it looks like I have Mother's Day covered now!

I hear you. I have my go pro on my cross bar, which is behind the seat. It's easy to do. You just hit the record button, and connect the go pro to your computer. They supply a cable when you buy it. How it looks.
How was the install? I've heard you don't even need to jack up the front end to change the front shocks?
Thats correct. I didnt jack it up and it was easy as pie. I had a fight with the left side not wanting to come off, but I drilled a hole in the bolt and just cold chiseled it off.... 5 -10 minutes, it was off. See my post on shock in the tech/performance section...
Finally got it running after a dead battery, had to jump start with an Avalanche because the battery tender didn't work. Now to diagnose other issues...
I have a list of things to do since the beginning of spring, got as far as changing my oil. And as it continues to rain everyday, I do not see me finishing the list on my 94 or my 76 till Noah loads them on the ark.
Today i Finished changing my spark plugs, number 8 was giving me hell to get back in. after an hour struggle i finally got in Flushed the coolant system, bleed the system, new injector o-rings installed and She fired right up. It was quite the day!
list for tomorrow is new brake/rotors. Then hitting the road hopefully!

#8 is tough. Probably took me 30min to an hour just for that one. The good news is it gets easier if you keep doing it I tested my compression last week and had to get all the plugs out again, just two weeks after changing them. At least the test results came back good! (150 psi +- 10 psi).
