Opinions Please!

As soon as the weather decides on warming up permanantly, I aim to get the body work/paint done to the car....now, first thing I'm curious about is the colour change, as shown on the image I atattched..I took the grey runaround, made it black, and would have to redo the blue striping....how would those colours look...? A bit different, but nice, I think....in addition, what about Trans Am GFX to go with it...? (Black, I think). Also, the bra on the front is long gone, I just need to get more pics developed...Ontarionians, lend me your opinions!

did your spoiler crack 2? i am dumping that aerowing garbage and put on a pedestal spoiler from a earlier bird

Heh....my thoughts exactly. I like the look of the spoiler now, but have a love for the T/A skirts and such...hood too...there's a yard car in my area with the pieces in good shape, I'm sure I could pick them up cheap. However, the local yard has a few pedestal spoilers around...how much are you looking to spend? If you want, I could go check it out for ya...?

20 minutes or so east (I think.. ) of Oshawa....perhaps you've heard of Newcastle, or Bowmanville...? I'll see what they want for a spoiler on Monday, email me azure@speedline.ca if you've got any specific requests, or whatever.

And also, another opinion question....86-90 front ends or the sleeker 91-92's..? I'm leaning towards the 86-90, because it looks a bit meaner, but I don't know...

I like the all black with the g-f/x. I'm not sure about the blue strip, but of course that's just my 2 cents. Sounds like a good plan though.

See, the thing most people don't realize is that the car is actually a deep blue, "Dark Sapphire Metallic" or something....I'll have better pics hopefully later tonight...

Azure... I would do a monotone paint scheme. The Black Sapphire paint is a sweet colour when it is shiny, I have it on my Oldsmobile, respray it to that colour. If you can get the ground effects cheap, then go for it, it would look sweet.

Hey.. do me a favour... check your paint code, I am wondering if it IS the same colour as my Olds
