Man, I just don't know.
I like the old looking color that is now on the Toyota (Calvary Blue) and the Ford Bronco (Area 51 blue).
These colors are close to the original 1959 colors on the GM chart(Artic Blue, Tartan Turquoise & Orbit Blue).

Blue is my favorite color and those are some nice blues you're looking at. I don't envy you on having to make this decision. Good luck!

Thx. This is the second version of the cover panel. I didn't like the direction of the first. I think they nailed it.

Looking for input on exhaust exiting.
A or B?

B might be changed up a lil. Just trying to figure out a direction.

They both look very clean, can't go wrong with either IMO. A is a more traditional approach while B is very modern Euro tech. Would depend on which look the overall build is.
