Nighthawk Custom Colt Work??

Ok guys, yesterday I purchased my first ever Colt. It's my birth year 1979 Combat Commander in 45 acp. I tried to search for older builds but didn't really find what I was looking for. I'd like to know if you've sent your Colt in to NHC, what did you have done? Was it mostly cosmetics or functional as well? Are there things looking back now that you wish you'd done differently?

I've got a list of things that will be must haves for me but I don't want to get it back and realize I forgot something. So please if you've sent a Colt in to them, share your experience. If you still have your build sheets I'd love to see those along with pictures of said gun as well. Thanks for any knowledge or help you can lend!

Please don't add IOS to a 1979 Colt. Please.

I know you didn’t mention iOS but I don’t see a reason not to add it. If it’s a birth year gun, you will likely hold onto it for quite awhile. You can run irons now, but once your eyes start going on you (or you decide to experiment) - it’ll be nice to have that option.
The reason not to is because it's like adding a wing to a classic car.

You do however bring up a valid scenario. Either way, OP isn't doing it.
