Brilliant, thanks! Looks great from every angle Wink ! Only looks like your rear bumper is tilted a little in the pictures.

What kind of (fog?)light is that?

Hi everyone, I am looking to repair the spring mount of my decklid and trying to find the spring that was missing.
Here are some picture.
For some reasons the mount was removed or cut, who knows..., so I am trying the get a repair properly made.
Should the spring on convertible be the same as for the sedan ?

thanks for any help.
Jerome

I want to get it cleaned up, but will get more pics soon. Here is a picture of it loading on the truck by the prior owner and off the truck when it got delivered. The car has about 40,000 original miles. Original paint. Original top. Original boot. Original Interior. Everything with the exception of the wheels which were painted brown for some reason is as it was. Excited to share more pics as I get the car dialed in.
