Would anyone know if changing out the lenses to "clear" will affect Concours judging negatively, as they are not "original".?
Worst case is that I switch back and forth, clear to red, when prepping for a show. They are easy enough to r and r.
I swore that this was the one car I WAS NOT going to touch, but here I am really liking these clears.
Who is the trusted vendor for this swap?

Whatever turns your crank, some like them and some don't. They are an easy switch to make back and forth if you like them. There is no accounting for taste, good or bad

I hope that folks have not started to put them up on blocks. The 50 is definitely a "Show-er" AND a Driver! There is just something about it that even the most hard core P-car guys need to come on over and talk about when I show it. They bring joy. Is it the Geyser Grey that gets them?
My 2 cents on this one.....
PS.....I hope that they don't show up at any of my intended "show" events this season. It will be a tough fight to the top!

For those with the agate carpets -- we have white stitching on the mats. Is that unique to the '50? I'd like to have a back-up set if need be!

On another note for all of you "50" fanatics out there...Anyone use Exclusive Option for their leather upgrades? My first order will be here next week and is there a chance for disappointment (Installation issues/Leather quality)? Probably should have asked this question two months ago.
Anybody have some thoughts on installation? Any Photos of finished work?

Regards....

Exclusive options is really good. Have used them a couple time in the past. Most recently, they did leather-covered burmester tweeter grills for the dash of myth 50a when I did my stereo upgrade. The match is perfect. Highly recommend them.
