Yes, it needs something up front. But looks way better without the factory ones, than with them.
Nose being pointed did take some getting used to.... wanted a Iroc front clip at first, but now I appreciate mine more cause mine stands out more than most 3RD'S! Thanks for the comments

Do you have a broken window in the back or is that just a shaggy blue blanket on the top of your passenger seat?

I have that rear too. Shhh, don't tell the state piglets but one time I was crusin' 110 down the interstate and it was only @ 3k rpms. I know it would have went faster but I had a magnetic cb antanna on the roof and I was pushing it with that as it was.
I'm imagining with the wind drag and all, it may be around 140-160 MPH maximum top speed. Just a guess.

thanks! the wheels are 15x7 Cragar Black D Window (4" backspacing) and the tires are Cooper Cobra Radial GT P235/60R15. the tires are pretty good- these are the 2nd set of them i've had. they're all-weather performance tires. they have a little more grip than most all-weather tires. not bad in the rain or light snow, great on dry roads. summit's price is a bit high- i got them for $93 per tire- and that's including mounting, balancing, and the valve stem. the guy i went to had to special order them and go pick them up from the warehouse, but i had them on the car by the end of the day.
