navy seabee. And yes it is just a bit much on the gold. I was trying to make my car look as close to the bandit car as I could. figured I'd leave it like this for a while just for the fun of it.

the shades are just a two piece thing i picked up from pep boys a long time ago. they fold up into some weird pretzel round shape. but they work to keep the sun off my dash.
