I thought Autobahn's had more silver/chrome in them... maybe I'm thinking of another.

if you note the rims, mike, they appear to be the same on all the pics. It should be the same car.

FRP means fiberglass re-inforced plastic. it's what many tub and shower units are made out of nowadays.

Gemini do not take strikes (I have them).
Autobahn come in two flavours, crome or black metal screen (the Gemini do too).
The second pic is not stock painted. The stock ones have a flat surface and a small rhombic grill patern. The one in the pic has "depth" where the grill is, and the grill has a different patern.
