I ike you are taking the color theme to the fullest, love that brown. Have you swapped the turn signals out or are you leaving them orange?
Time to paint the rear turbo emblem macadamia as well...

I am going the grey and black route, just received the black hood emblem...
Still and old pic with the Rotec's will take new ones soon...

Did you put the 'smile' in yourself, or did you take it to a body shop? Want to do the same, but not sure how hard it is.
