Finally One Color!! (Big Pics)
Well, my car has been like 8 different colors for like forever, so after I got the frame pulled from the accident, I gave in and just primered the whole car. Yeah, I know, it's a rattle can job, but it looks soo much better now that it's all one color until I can get the money to get the new fenders, bumper, and get it painted. What do you guys think?

Wow, that thing looks killer (minus the primer)
That's the exact set-up as Sonar_Un has with his car and If i ever owned a Trans Am, that's the look i would go for too...

Yeah, I know it's the same as sonar's... he's pointed it out to me a couple times... but i've had the hood, spoiler, and rims for over a year. And it'll be shiny black when it's all done.

I've actually had more people than you might expect actually compliment the way it looks just primered, in that it looks meaner. I like it... but it'll still get painted eventually.

It does need a new nose, as well as both fenders. They're all shot, another reason I didn't mind just paintin over what was there. I just painted it all cuz I knew it would be a lil while till I get get the bumper, fenders, and everything else.

Haven't seen a black suede third gen that I can remember. Different look, imagine cops notice too. Don't think I'd let anyone sit on the hood like that either, even a nice looking gal like her.

That'd look badass if you evened it all out for the smooth matte look and polished the **** out of the tailights.

Looks very similar to my progress. 
Super crappy pic though, I need to get better ones. But my car is also in flat black primer and has the Ram Air II hood and will have the fourth-gen wing. Differences are mine's a 91 so it has a different nose, a Formula so no GFX, and I have fourth-gen Camaro wheels instead of fourth-gen T/A wheels.
