thanks! i personally think the color is a little to bright, plus its a crappy paint job, so in 4 months its going black with red metal flake. should look pretty slick.

I got the 84-85 series, and all you gotta do is cut about an inch off the lower tab. It doesnt matter how bad or ugly the cut is because it will slip under the dash.

Just red......Dupont 916 Primary Red to be exact.
And the top is Mercedes Toner,an ultra high pigment black with no washout.

Its a big mistake to choose a color just because its Ferrari or Porsche's color of choice.When selecting a color(especially reds),disregard the name or orgin and just go with what you like under direct sunlight.So many factory reds are orange or yellow under sunlight, that its a maor dissapointment when you see it for the first time.
