What to do next?
Well i will be getting $210 to spend on the T/A and dont know what to do with it. I have already decided to change all the interior lights to ice blue but thats it. Anyone have ideas on what is cheap and cool to do to improve the appearence of an 86 T/A? Here are some things i was thinking about:
-Tailight blackouts
-Custom floor mats
-Third eye mod.
-Tint windows
-keyless entry (although not an apearence mod it would be nice)
Any ideas and suggestions are welcome.

what would be the average price of window tinting if i had a shop do it? One place said it was like $185 with a lifetime warenty. Does that sound right? Also where can i get the blackouts? I have looked around and the dont have one for an 85-90 TA.

the 185 for 3 windows sounds damn good to me, most places around my area charge about 200 bucks so 185 sounds good. for the blackouts did you try your local autozone, pepboys or strauss discount auto? Most of those places will be able to order a set for your car.

I say do the windows, it makes a car look so much cleaner. then maybe rear blackouts from GTS not GTO
but that all depends on the tails you currently have in the car.

The reason you cant fint any GTS ones are because the company went out of business and its becoming increasingl harder to find their stuff. You may want to check around with some other companies like Ventshade or Wade they both make covers for our cars.

I picked mine up off of Ebay for around $40 near new. There was one or two small scratches on them but they are hardly noticeable. Try looking for second hand.
