Hood bird for a '96 convertible?

Hello all,

Is there any reason why I shouldn't add a blue hood bird to Trixie? She's white with blue trim, and I'm replacing the current white top with a blue one after the summer. Here's the current hood and a mock-up of what I was thinking. Or is this a huge no-no? TIA!

Replacement soft top

My second question of the day, thank you for putting up with me! I need to replace the soft top on a 96 TransAm. It's a white car with a white top, which is cracked and dirty. See photo. I was thinking about replacing it with a blue top to match the blue trim. I did up an AI rendering of a blue top. What do you think, stick with white or go blue? Thanks!

Tonneau cover

Is it worth installing these tonneau covers on my '96 convertible? I guess I'm worried about getting caught in the rain and needing to get the top up quickly! I also gotta figure out how to install them. I can't find the instructions in Dad's paperwork. Thanks!

Dad's 96 TransAm

Hello all, I just inherited my dad's 96 TransAm with the LT1/5.7L V8. Does this engine require the higher octane gasoline (93)? I'm assuming it does, please confirm! Thanks!
