A bit off the subject, but congratulations on carrying the Danube Blue forward to the front parking light area and the little step below it which is visible between the bumper and parking light when assembled. Some will dispute that this should be the middle color (blue) on 3-tone cars (it's the bottom color on 2-tone cars) but the few factory photos and unrepainted original cars show this to be correct though some of the conceptual pre-introduction artwork (not photos) show it otherwise. Some folks paint that little spot Roman Copper (or the bottom color) which seems to follow the color line but yet which the preponderance of evidence says is incorrect. I'm curious, if you have original steel wheels, are they also Danube Blue on the outside (black on the inside)?
