Your Roadster might need a rest from your modding fever, spiney.

The biggest pain was finding someone to do the work. On Midnight Black, I think it really helps to balance the brightness of the chrome trim around the grill. Glad you approve, Steven.

Good on you for the perseverance. Looks great, and the fact that it's unique makes it even better.

My wife came down again for the 4th. Had anotherconjugal visit with the roadster! It looks hot, and trust me it was but we still had the top down and I have the burns to prove it! LOL










And hope you had a happy 4th!

That's what I thought when I saw it, more "Auto Awful" to be honest! I just wanted to make sure that it wasn't just me who thought that.

It may not be up to snuff for you, but I'm loving these pictures. And LOVE that interior (but, I may be biased).

It was raining but the experience was a total fun none the less...

I have more pictures of the Sunny day I'll post a little later but I'm in Boston Airport and the pictures aren't with me so I'll have to do that tomorrow once I'm back...

Was nice to meet you btw!
