That business trip must suck. You're dying to get back to your new baby I'm sure! Been there done that - LOL!!

Beautiful Color - Congrats!!

When I was into C3's it was all about stock/survivor/original to me. Once I got my C5 it's all about tasteful mods and crafting your own unique piece of art!

A beautiful car, not pewter, but beautiful never-the-less. I too was required to come up with a front license filler plate. I found one that was unpainted which brought along another set of issues, now I know all I will ever need to know about "color sanding". It did come in handy painting my used body side moldings which you already have.

Congrats!

A word of warning though... if you replace or mod just one thing (that exhaust plate for example) it will lead you down a long expensive road of looking for the next best thing! Enjoy!
