lookin good! What hood is that? I think you need a Camaro or bowtie grill and it would look even better.
sweet car, i have seen those rims on a few cars and i admit i either love them or hate them. on black cars they look nice but i dont really like them with the white, sorry! sweet *** car though, i love white f-bodies, tint your windows dark and it'll look real sweet.

I can guarantee that 5% tint all the way around will look AMAZING. My friend has a white 84 TA with 5%, and wow it made just an amazing difference on his car.
Like said above, a bowtie grill would look killer, they are only 52 bucks from classic industries.

hood fits real nice. Just have to tweak it a bit, which I will do when I get the nose touched up (%@## curbs)
Hood is painted flat black underneath.
As for the headlight buckets, i painted them (and the whole car) so I wouldn't have them black

I wouldn't get 5% tint If was you. My new RS has 5% and I can't see out the side windows at night. I have to role them down. I have 35 on my other RS and it is fine. but if you care going to go darker than the legal limmit I would do 15 or 20%. just my oppinion

I agree, it will difinantly look awesome. just makes it a little hard to see sometimes. but if that doesn't bother you. go for it . It gives your car a much meaner look I think.
Yeah, I don't know if you can really tell, but my back window is already 5%. Impossible to see out of at night....but I'm used to just looking for headlights there. This has taught me to rely on my side mirrors more than most, so smoking out the side windows not really an option. they already have light tint on them. I'm going to darken it soon...maybe 15% -20%. tint + white car = good

I am going to get it airbrushed in a couple weeks. Paint is the expensive part because my paint has a subtle blue pearl in it.83'bird - vanfbody has been fairly busy lately. get on there
