I have nearly finished up with all my body mods, maybe thrusday I will get my polished Z28 rims mounted and have them put on the car.I have to can paint my hatch trim"it has some rust and primer on it".I still need to put on my emblems. Enjoy



I polished up my tail lens,and plate lights,and 3rd brake light. I did my side markers too. The pass one was from Socal85tam it was in great condition, but my drv was faded to heck befor I polished it out.


And heres one from my lack luster interior. oh well thats getting fixed soon.

 

The nose to hood line is not as bad as mine, but still noticible. Other than that, Great Job.

 

Lookin sweet man! I love shiney black cars! :hail:

 

Looks great mike:hail: .... BTW great looking tail lights, where did you get those?j/k

 

Black does look sweet. I still have the other tail light that I bought from you,I polished and painted it too.Does anybody know how to fix the hood to nose gap. Do I have to adjust the hood stops? Thanks

 

Yeah I havent tried to line it up yet, but adjusting the hood stops probably wont do it. See the hood lines up good with the very far left and right headlight pockets, but just not in the middle. Maybe someone will give us a tip.

 

Great job, I didn't think it'd look that good without clear coat on it, but it's pretty nice. Hit it with some zaino and make that baby SHINE And when you say Z28 rims, do u mean the 15x7's? What size are the ones on it now? I think they'd look sweet if you just cleaned them up with some Nevr-Dull and cleaned the tires, they look alot better than the stock Z28/RS wheels to me...

 

Great job, I would say to get those Z28 rims on as fast as you can! Those ones you have on there now look terrible!

 

dude you'd be an idiot to get the ugly *** stock z28 rims.. those rims you have are nice.. u just need to get the american racing centercaps and some alloy wheel cleaner...

 

Yep the 15X7'S

 

SWEET:hail: :hail: :hail:

 

Your car looks awesome...what steps did u take to prep ur car for paint? I know u primed it all , and that is what i am doing to my car, just looking for some tips or the way you did yours....

 

what u on crack RS?! the Z28 rims look 100 times better!

 

I have the 86 Z28 rims on the car right now,but when I get me a set of IROC rims I will polish them and have them chromed.

 

Why not have them cromed... I did

 

HARD TO BELIEVE THAT IS THE SAME CAR!!!!!!!

Looks great man :hail: :hail: :hail: Those IROC Rims would be great, but I wouldn't dip them in crome, crome on our cars is nasty. Anything made after 1970 should not be allowed to have crome wheels IMO.

But I am diggin the Polished IROC rims, I am either getting those or ZR1's not sure yet...

 

I will eventually get a set of IROC rims for my car, polish the up and have them chromed. Black85TransAm,
When I primed the whole car I sanded down to bare metal and take all the paint off of the gfx's and bumpers. Now if you are gonna have paint put over your current paint I would get rid of any pits, cracks , and chips that are in the paint. When you get your car to the paint shop mask off everything you dont want painted and you should be set.To bad you will miss out on the best part though, theres nothing like painting your own car.

 

I didn't think they'd look that good, but those 15x7 Z wheels are B!TCH!N DUDE!!! :hail: Might I suggest painting your drums silver???

 

Actually I'm going to have them chromed

 

form one 60* owner to another, please do NOT do that to your car!

Get my point? Crome is just wrong:nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono:

 

Why is that wrong? Everyone has polished rims... imo.
Do what u like not what other thinks

 

im just saying that crome on our cars is just plain old ugly and really brings the car down. Just my .02

But do whatever you want, its your car. IMO Polished is better.

 

I'm still undicided on getting the IROCs chromed or not. My main reasons for having them chromed is for easy cleaning, longer lasting shine, and never have to re do them again" until the chrome strips off." But until the time comes I'll wait.

 

Hadn't seen your ride in a while man. ITs looking really good. I am vbery impressed with how far you've come with the car. Excellent job and keep up the work!

 

crome iroc rims look awesome.. hell most aftermarket rims are crome.. i wish i had cromed iroc rims hehe crome rims look great on 3rd gens! nice job guys!

 

Nice, I really like those rims. I am still undecided about polishing mine or repainting them white. What are you doing for a center cap?

 

I'm going to buy oroginal style center caps that have the camaro inserts on them.

 

I'd go with chrome too. Nothing can shine like chrome, and the upkeep is 10 times better than polished.

 

I was at a junk yard today and found chrome caps that said "ralley" on them. They wanted $15 each.

 

85SportCoupeto89RS, how did you get your front lights that color? I love them. Did you use nightshades by any chance? I've heard about them but haven't seen much of how it looks.

 

85SportCoupeto89RS think it's time for some tire shine?

 

Chrome Irocs!!!!!!!!

 

92blue? I havent changed the colors of my lights.What color did you see. I have yellow light bulbs in my park lights though with new lenses so that might be what you see. I have put tire shine on them just didnt have any batteries for my DC once I had finished.

 

Since its been over 60 days since I painted my car I decided to wax oh and I have tire shine.

 

Got my rocker panel and rear emblems put on too.

 

smile for the camera

 

Heres one of my interior. Everything on the center console is new except my shifter ****,and console lid. I might be able to get a set of 4th gen seats" got a tip about a set in the j/y "

 

car is looking great, i have to ask, what is on your passenger a Pillar?

 

:

[B]Just a lil confuseed..... I think 98 WS6 Chrome 17x9 wheels look totally awesome on thirdgens..... least on birds... not sure bout Camaro's.. only difference between maro's and gens are front bumper, and rear bumper, and rear 1/4 panels...
anyways.. I think Chrome looks awesome.. I seen Chromed Iroc rims on cars driving down the road on a black Z28, I thought it was Killer!

 

I guess it's a reflection of the sky or something?

 

The only thing i would change is put some new rims on that and it would look absolutely amazing. You did an awesome job on the body work i would have to say.

 

i'll guess that I'll keep my big mouth shut from now on, and keep my opinions to myself, hjate to see this thread to go bad, cuase your car looks great. Everybody has there own opinions and I respect that, and i'll be glad if you get what you want if it pleases you, do it, i was just stating my opinon. Lets let this be before this gets out of hand please.

 

I dont mind your opinions at all stuart69427. Your opinions expand the choices I have to do to my car so keep them coming.

 

what kind of 4th Gen seats are you getting? Camaro or Trans Am?

 

Hopefully I will get them. They come from an 96 Firebird I believe. The car is impounded and is going up for auction, if Rick gets the car he said I can pull the Black seats and belts .
