Looks good, I don't really care for the antenna but it's no big deal.

What color is that?

Thanks for the comments guys..

Reid: My factory antenna was broken so I had it replaced. The antenna is functional and not some cheap "cosmetic" one.

That is looking mighty nice. Love that color with those rims! The only thing that doesn't do it for me is the mudflaps...but then again, I could see that it might look funny without them. So nevermind I guess!

Wait, that's a 93 but you have no foglights? Did you do a conversion from a later year?

The later del Sols w/o the foglights look weird to me. I wonder why they got rid of them?

Thanks for the comments guys..Let's see if I can answer your questions.

The color is a titanium bronze metallic, it changes hues depending on the light. So at dusk it looks kinda silverish, at noon really bronze, and on overcast days titanium.

The front end was updated to the newer, less often seen, 96-97 bumper cover. I like the bigger air dam, but kinda miss the aux lights.

The side skirts are stock, paint has held up really well. Not a rock chip to be seen and it's my daily driver. It all depends on how the shop you take your car to preps the skirts and applies the paint.

I'm not entirely sure on this, but I've heard that the reason Honda got rid of the aux lights on the 96-97s is because they lights had a bad habit of killing bulbs. I know the lights killed about 3 bulbs when I had the previous front end. HTH
