Ali..Im assuming you are going to drop the engine and strip it and respray the entire car then?

You get them few things done and sprayed the same colour and it would look great, less work too!
Even though Han is biased, which i dont blame her, black cabs do look the b0llix when done right..
Keep the colour and a few of your own little touches and will look lovely darl..

90s and cast are quite similar...
