This has a pearl through it. What ever ended up happening with this car after it was advertised on here for a fairly decent amount?? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

that looks really nice the way it is, everythings understated and done right. youve done well. heres my 2 cents, i wouldnt bother clipping on the chrome strips, it makes your car (not VL's in general!!) look alot cleaner and gives it less of the "old car" look...plus it makes it easier to polish/clean the bumpers and moulds.
