Yeah I will just put the old speakers up for now, they are really faded and have a couple tears in them. Dust caps on ebay, I'll go look now - the Aluminum ones? Might be too big....and I replaced the tweeters/high pass speakers with matching units with black centers...
Thanks for the compliments, the box is coming along nicely.

They look really faded in person, but i know they're suppose to b blue, the outer edges have tears in them (nothing some adhesive on back couldn't make better though).. Looks like JVC used some really nice stuff and had a smart layout for these radios!
Johnny. Those speakers look good to me. If you don't want 'em, you can send 'em to me!
JVC's service manual clearly describes the speakers as new, polyurethane veneered versions. If you look closely, you'll see that the reverse side is blue paper. The front side is coated (veneered) with plastic. The coating is a greyish color and the light blue you are seeing is the original blue of the paper cone showing through. I've had 4 M90's in my collection and they are ALL that color. One of my M90 is as mint as they come, with virtually no use (not even a spec of dust behind the grill) and it's still that color. Besides, I don't think you'll find speakers faded so evenly from behind the grill.

Johnny you can use Dupli-Color fabric spray for your speakers.
Check it:

I've done mines with it and then used a clear coat to add the shine.
What brand name are those black woofers and where did you get them?

The woofers look nice But try and get some caps to add some Bling.
I bet she will sound great with the new Jamo woofs they have a good product.

Johnny here is an original, not painted.
I have used what ford93 suggested as well, and I wish I would have taken a picture when I was done, the color is very close to the original.....Its called hvp112 medium blue. I did not put a clear coat on and they still look very very nice.
