Those tweeter trims look sweet. Was it hard to line them up straight? Seems like those skinny parts would bend while you're trying to put them on.

It was tricky. I peeled them up after being 1/2 stuck down probably 4-5 times. Well worth it.

Caution comes through again, dang.

New chrome strip for the bottom of the tuner window.


Beautiful!

Bredgeo knobs for the win!!!!! Full matching set, will be painted silver soon. Actually seeing them with this opaque color makes my mind turn that maybe you could add back lighting in the knobs oooooohhhhhh aaaaaaahhhhh, but probably not ;-)

I love looking at this thing. Every day!!!!


One thing I notice with a paint color like this blue is that the darker the color, the more detail you seem to lose in my opinion. The curves, grooves, notches, ribs, etc.... they all kind of fade away because you can't see the shadows from the cool details. It still is nice, but I wouldn't go this dark again.

I love the contrast of the Redfire with the M90 gray:

The red one is nice enough to not need to decal over the original finishes. The blue one was way more rough.

Now it is time for someone to make a Switch panel restoration (transfer) for M90. :yes:
That can restore the looks of faded switch panel areas.

Couple more things we need is to find a place to restore the chrome finish of speaker rings and refinish knobs.

In my case if there is one ding on the speaker ring that is where I look all the time and worry! Like the scratch on a new car. :yes: :-D I am sick! :w00t:

I like the character of the dings on street blasters. Now on a shelf queen, a ding would drive me NUTS!!!
