| Greetings everyone. Ive been the proud owner of a 1995 supercharged Rivi for a little over a year now. Ive loved the body styles and always wanted one and i was able to get it through our local auction. Shes rough, and ive started getting her where i want it, but as im sure you all know, finding parts is EXTREMELY difficult! Can anyone recommend aftermarket websites for body panels or is my only option finding a donar car? Thanks for the help! | |

| Albert is on the money as usual. Is your car bright white or white diamond pearl? | |

| Well, its bright white, but someone done a hack paint job on it and half is bright white, and the orher is more an eggshell white. But i was able to get it for $350 so i had to buy it. Hopefully over the course of the next couple years ill have fresh body and paintwork done | |

FYI the Eggshell is the correct white. GM reused the color name in the 2000s. Happened to me, skip the long story though. I like the eggshell better, car stayed cooler in the summer for some reason. Albert | |

| My car is pearl white and there is no touch up paint in the world that will come close to matching it. | |

You and me both. My car has a primitive multi configuration display, and presents a graph to track some information... | |

| I actually don't own a Riviera...yet. I joined this forum to have the info I need for when I do get one. My current ride is a 3rd gen Prius. If I owned a 6th or 7th gen, I'd be a rare character indeed. The T-Types from that time intrigue me. | |

| I have a Dark Green/Gray Metallic supercharged Riv that I am parting out. All fenders, bumpers, bumper covers, hood and such are in great shape. The roof, too, but it has no sunroof. The trunk has some rust at the trailing edge. The best part is the green interior. Everything but the carpets are super.The engine and transmission are good, too, but the supercharger went to fix my '95 Platinum Beige Metallic Riv. The trunk lining is near perfect. I'm in 03240 (Grafton, NH). My prices are a bit less than what goes for on eBay but the complete interior (all green parts minus the carpets) is a firm $5,000. Anyone want that can take the whole thing (local pickup, of course) fender liners and all, no extra charge. A gold mine for someone with the time and ability. | |
