    Love the color btw, suits the car very well.
    Even with tinted windows and my car being a garage a good bit of the time?

    I might take a stab at reskinning my headliner in microsuede this weekend. I'm just worried that the awkward angles on this car are going to make it extra difficult to get the headliner out.

    These sound awesome too.
    Thanks man! Mine just has a custom axle-back for now so it doesn't really sound much better than stock. I'm planning to delete the resonator soon though so i'm hoping for a throatier exhaust note when I do so.

    I was considering it but more than likely not due to work and whatnot.

    I cleaned up my engine bay a little bit over the weekend. It's one area of my car that I admittedly neglect when it comes to cleaning. It's not quite showroom fresh but hey it's a 9 year old car afterall. I want to eventually have my supercharger and valve covers powdercoated but i'm not sure what color I want to do. I was thinking maybe a gunmetal metallic color of some sort. I want something relatively neutral.....not too flashy.....but not so neutral that it appears to be stock. Thoughts?

    After

    Also, did they make vert SRT-6 crossfires? I think I saw one this morning (had the big spoiler not the veyron-style one) on the way to work. It was black
    Thanks man! I And yeah these cars are about 80% German, 20% American. The only reason you can tell it's a Chrysler is because of the cheap-o interior plastics and the droopy headliner.........lol.

    And yeah they made SRT-6's in convertible trim. I was actually originally considering an SRT-6 convertible since I was coming from a Miata and ***** to give up having a convertible. But the more I looked at them the less I liked them and eventually decided on the coupe. The rear roofline/c-pillars is what gives these cars their character in my opinion and you lose that bodyline with the verts. The verts however are a little bit rarer than the coupes.
