That's a nice GTA! But if you are going for the full 100% original look why are your GTA emblems in the wrong spot?

edit: I just read it was repainted but you plan on fixing the emblems, good stuff!

Thanks you guys! It's is ALLOT of hardwork to keep a car that nice especially when it has more than 100K miles

All I need to do now is install new leather seat covers, shampoo the carpet, and buy new floor mats and it's FINALLY done! Of course they are never done....

92 Firebirds have the same tailights as Formulas, the standard red on top and yellow on the bottom with the white towards the middle.

hey 92 GTA did you get pulled over for not having the front plates and then you put it on? I don't want to drive around with the front plate making my car look bad. I know tons of people that drive with it off here in so cal but Im just worried about the fuzz. Oh also where did you get those runners for your TPI?

They have a retractable front license plate. Bolts under the bumber cover and comes forward and pops up. Pretty cool.
Dude on LS1.com is selling his, brand new never used.

I have the front plate on there because being and original CA, it has the RPO for the front license plate mounting hardware on the SPI label so since I do cars shows and I want my car to be correct, I installed the front plate when I got my custom plates. I even went so far as to use the original GM torx screws to mount it

The intake runners were part of the SLP package, check my sig.
