Hey man Check out GTAsourcepage.com That is a great site for all your GTA questions. I go there alot for GTA info. Frankie Rider, knows his stuff thats for sure, he owns the group. This question has been posted in here before, and Frankie answered it. It wasn't that long ago, but not sure if you can find the post. But I am sure someone here might know also. Good luck man.

West Coast, thanks a lot for the compliments.... I appreciate that a lot. It's nice to know that the Source Page helps people out from time to time.

I responded on this via e-mail but I'll also post here just in case.

Mike, the 1991 colors were the first to vary from the standard GTA color palette. The available colors were as follows:

Code --- Color

10 ----- Bright White
41 ----- Black
45 ----- Dark Green Metallic **
75 ----- Brilliant Red Metallic **
81 ----- Bright Red
87 ----- Medium Gray Metallic

** - new color for 1991

Look to part with some money for the emblems, as they are no longer available through GM. You are kind of at the mercy of who is selling them.... pretty much a supply and demand kind of thing going there. I've seen complete NOS emblem sets of five pieces go for up to $500 recently. So it's really just how much you are willing to pay to get them.

Good luck.
