Re: New paint

hey man i love it, looks amazing. How tall is that cowl hood thats going on it? (the one in the garage) That thing is nice. I cant wait to see the Rumble Zee done I think that name fits more I had a yellow z28 before i got my iroc. I was gonna do the paint like you are. For a personalized license plate use what i was going to. KILR ZEE (killer zee = Killer bee) Good Job

Nice work so far.....

Do the fender vents sit flush or is there a gap?

If flush, how did you do it?

Re: New paint

rumblebee...hahahaha I favor the trans-am fender and hood vent/extractors. But its still nice. And autobot YES!! with the aerio's there is a whole transformer club in PR, dunno but searching transformers on aeriostyle.com might get you something. They did some nice custom paint work, obsessed.

they sit pretty flush there is a small gap at the bottom but its not noticable.. I had to trim the inner part of the vent due to it contacting the frame..

Re: New paint

a nose emblem would really set that car off. wouldnt even matter if it where stock or custom yellow and black it would set it off.

Re: New paint

Looks really cool, not crazy about the fender vents but they look decent with the hood. I really like the headlights, I'd love to see how they look in person.
Also I personally like the shaved nose emblem look, less is more in some cases.

Lordmetal: Do you have any plans to get rid of that vomit-enducing rice-wing? No offence but it just looks extremely out of place and really detracts from an otherwise beautiful car.
