Yes, its a fresh repaint of the factory color. It turned out really nice. The car was in really good shape, just had the usual clear coat pealing. I see u are a local!
Wow I didn't see that you were located in Crosby, I live near Kingwood. That is a really nice car. Have you been to any of the local shows etc?
I haven't yet, I am still tinkering with it, but I do plan on it when its all done. I knid of got stalled when I got deep into my Jeep project. I know better than to have two projects going at the same time but it just kind of happened. LOL!
dockrocker, our cars are nearly twins, im repainting mine back the stock (same color as your car) this weekend because the old clear was going bad, and i have t-tops and c5 y2k chromies, im also in houston, we should get some side by side pics at the next meet
Sickness, wasnt your car in Camaro Performers mag?

im running sportlines, as for my rims they are 18x9.5 all way around, with 295 35 18 and a 245 40 18 offset
thats weird, i dont understand. so you have the 295 35 18 in the rear right? thats pretty wide. but why 35 and 40 tall? like i said im confused. but dam man you have one sick 3rd gen. one of the best IMO
damn these maro's are looking damn nice.....um heres mine. its no show stopper. but its a 3rdgen. also i got some of sound system, not massive but it bumps. and i know my sub is in my back seat, didnt fit in the trunk. so i wanna upgrade soon.

thanks bro, i try my best to keep her sharp. i have 35,40 side walls to keep the overall diameter of the tire the same size or close, so from the side it looks equal and not big and small. i hope that explains.

my front bump stops are worn a little, but its not that bad, ive had these springs on for about 5 years now,i dont bottom out alot i try and aviod as many bumps and holes as possible, the ride at times is pretty harsh though, as for the lights they are h4 euro light headlamps with hids, the park lightss and side markers are from e bay.
yes it has a T56 in it and I made my own dash panel put of carbon fiber. I used the stock gauge housing so I could have a way to mount the panel to the dash itself and it worked out great.
