Nice pics, Evan. I think your 6GA is the only one I've seen with smoked headlight covers, it's working with the theme you have going.

I don't know to be honest. I see lighter shades of green on coupes and sedans around here, but I also see my shade sometimes. I believe I see the lighter shade on 01-02 coupes, but that be just me. Thank you though.
The lenses are tinted. I need to polish them out, but it seems like the tiny may be flaking off. Really would like to save them though

so I re-wrapped it. It took me ~2hr of sewing!
Tried my best to complete a paint restore. When I got the car about 3 weeks ago the paint was oxidized and had no sheen to it. Paint is far from perfect, but wanted to make it better.
-- washed
-- clayed
-- compound
-- Color X from Meguiars
-- two coats of wax
I think it turned out pretty good. Not quite as good as I hoped, but I would have had to spend a lot more time in the compound phase of things and it is hot here in Phoenix.
Sorry images are not embedded. I wish Google Drive would allow this more freely. I used to have a way around it, but it looks like they are preventing that method now.

Looking great! I've had all the parts to do mine for close to a year now. Just cant find the time.
I have very similar ideas for mine, well done!

Hollowed out my cat over the weekend...The rattling got annoying lol
Hollowed out? I need to either take my cat shield off or secure it. It rattles so much from being hit everywhere lol. I drove the Accord today to school and as I walked out, some dude did a walk around three times. Lol. I drove by later as he was standing next to a stock SMR coupe. Felt pretty good

Nice job. Try a paint meter on it?
Looks good. Haven’t seen those shrouds in a while.
Did you defoul the sensor or are you not getting any codes?
For pouring your heart into a car that still never seems to quite get the credit/attention it deserves, it’s always nice when you do get that appreciation. Mine has been attracting more people to it at Cars & Coffee lately, I was talking awhile with an NSX owner and another guy with an 80’s M6 this past Saturday. Definitely felt good.
