If I end up keeping the car I am going to get a wrap around. The rear tint is 5% and the sides are 15%.

Thanks for the comments

camaro-mayhem- I WAS gonna go out to Colossal cave and take the pics but there was a housing development going up on the way and I pulled into there instead, I figured there would be less other people. As I was leaving a security dude was driving up and glaring at me

Well you said it needs paint, so besides the obvious, how bout dual exhaust, just a suggestion. Otherwise, looks great. Love GTAs.

Lookin good man, but Ive gotta point out a few things. First, GTA's never had 2 tone paint schemes. Second, all your emblems are in the wrong positions (except nose emblem), third, GTA's had gold crosslace wheels. Are you sure its a real GTA?

Thanks, but yea I know about the mono-chromaticness of the GTA's. Nearly all of the ground effects had the yellow palstic showing due to the cheapo paintjob that was on it and I wanted to cover it up and while I was at it make the car look a little different, soo I used silver What do you mean my badges are in the wrong places? All of the GTA's that I've seen had them in the spots that mine does? If they are in the wrong spot its because of whoever the previous owner had paint it. The wheels were just re-painted black by ME. They were gold. I've run the numbers, its a real GTA Thanks for the comments!
