Chris, my SS is the same color as yours with some blue stripes, thought it looked nice. Alright, I couldn't leave well enough alone. Trimmed a bit with the dremel-no more arch through "turbocharged" part of logo. Hopefully the pics give you an idea of how much to take off if you're motivated too.

Just wanted to say it's the attention to details that seperate one from the other! Glad to see it botherd you enough to take the time to dis-assemble and dremel the base for the final finish!

Magnifico ,

So that is on the face side? You just shaved the in the middle above the "dimple"?

I can tell you, I think I'll leave mine till it's warmer or maybe try to get it in the garage...

bart, they can do any coloring you want with an SS because the SS dash LEDs are white not colored. You could make all the numbers pink if you want.
