yes it is original gel coat, spent 10 hours buffiing, waxing this year. It is dark green with a purple stripe. the tower was ordered from supra in 2000 for a launch. The bimini is Huge and a supra dealer here in Reno NV ordered it.

Ur boat looks sweet, great to see the kids loving it as well! Can't wait till my kids have a bit bigger appreciation for our boat, all in time, a bit young yet.

Ditto, I like that tower! Does the '94 have side widows that pop open? If so, can you still open them with this tower on?

Thanks for the replys, the tower was like 2000$ back in 2000 but they all were more then. yes is has the vent wings and they do open fully. I need an upholstery recomendation in n. nevada or n. california, know anybody?

Yours looks real nice. I also have a 94 sunsport. Had a new motor put in it recently but they ran into a problem with the fuel injectors so they put a carb on it instead, I actually bought it that way but I bought from my sister so know the history of it. Last year i redid the dash panel gauges and dash paneling it came out pretty good.

Here are some images of my Sunsport and the before and after of the gauge job.. Next i want to get the gel coat and trailer painted, then probably be time for interior

Hey PoPoz dash and boat look great did you use a carbon fiber vinyl or did you have your dash pieces hydro dipped?

Jason, I used carbon fiber. Found a place where they sell different gauge sheets, then used the old plastic paneling as a template took my jig saw and cut slow!! it was pretty expensive i think the 11" x 33" i used for the main panel was like 120 bucks, so i was real nervous when cutting and using the drill press for the gauges. but it worked out pretty good, took me about a month to get all the materials and about another month to take it all apart and fabricate and put back together. I was glad that I decided to do it myself even tho i had no experience it gave me a good sense of why a job like that would cost a couple thousand and also I like to give my boat personal love =)

Nice work! I plan on doing the same thing, only I'm 99% sure I'm not using real carbon fiber.

Ya it was pretty easy just time consuming labeling and what not. But the whole dash board comes out easy and there are quick plugs for all the connections under the dash which was nice i didn't have to cut and splice everything back together.. I had trouble finding other material for the dash paneling, actually was hard to find good carbon fiber sheets, what's nice tho is that there is a fiberglass backing behind all the plating.

you know it was like 2 years ago, looked through my emails but can't find anything. I know i order them online tho. I'll look in the garage and see if the box they came in has the packing slip in it

Here are more pics of my boat as requested.

The reason I ask this is I need to replace the clock gauge, it has fallen apart inside. Next the fuel gauge cover is almost unreadable, so I'm going to replace all the bottom gauges. I love the look of the gauges and you have a clock gauge that I can't find. I'll probally replace all the gauges to match, the only one that I will not replace is the perfect pass gauge installed where 1 of the speedos were. Thanks for any kind of help.:D

This was the series i used the Teleflex Lido as u can see in the photo they have the clock in that series. But don't know if i bought from them because they don't have the clock. But know that i think of it i might have hunted the clock gauge down and ordered it from a different site. And the clock i haven't been able to figure out, don't know if it's mis wired someplace else cuz it won't keep the time when the batteries are unplugged, but i think it works, i mainly got it because i needed the placeholder for that hole in the dash. I'll mess around with it on Saturday to see what happens.

Thanks for the compliments guys!!! makes me feel good about the love i put into it
