One thing that's a bit odd is the holes for the front emblem aren't straight. My car is like that also,never looked at the studs on the emblem but they would have to be cockeyed inorder for the emblem to be straight.

Just need to align the front bumper a little....

Paint looks amazing and couldn't be happier with the result.

Will get some final pictures Tuesday

David,

It looks fantastic!

I think Jeff asked a question earlier about the rear hatch I wanted to know too...how did you separate it from the glass and what are you going to use to reattach it?

David, along with the new paint and the 5 spokes, I think you should go ahead and add ZR-1 emblems to the hood. Who cares if they weren't there originally...the hood emblems would pull that beauty all together! DO IT! The Steel Blue '91 is one of my dream cars, and I always thought if I had one, I would find Steel Blue emblems and put them on. Lookin' good!
