New pics of the California IROC
I thought I'd slap one more coat of wax on the original 18 year old paint before I get it repainted here in a few months. Plus I can now show some before/after pics after getting my new springs installed. I also got a chance to try out a Mother's clay bar...makes the paint feel smoother than a baby's ****.
Same spot, different season, different lighting
Enjoy. Feedback is always welcome. Some came out a bit dark, sorry about that!
Before lowering:
After lowering:
Tried to get a little artsy with this shot..came out too dark though
Here's my favorite! :P

Here's a closeup - still a pretty good reflection. The car was a little dirty when I took the picture though

I was going more for performance over looks anyways - otherwise I would have gotten the sportlines. As it is, I've only got maybe 1 1/2 inches of clearance with my exhaust. I bottom out on my steep driveway a LOT.

Awesome IROC, I love the pics.
When you repaint it, are you keeping that color?

Thanks for the kind words everyone
MetalliCamaro: Yes, and for two reasons...
1) originality
2) I love the color. The deep red is just awesome. A lot better than the bright rally red they used on 98-02 camaros.
