I like the rims erik but newer style tail lights would look alot better. And the tips look weird. Like theyre slanted or something and stick too far. Rims look excellent though!

oh ya get rid of the 3rd tail light and maybe get a wrap around wing.

so to get a 10/10, i should take off the tips, put on the matching front wheels? that's it? btw , i'm looking for a 84 aero trans am front spoiler, and perhaps a wrap around for cheap.

you should get the tail lights that look like they have little circles in them.(early 90 firebirds or something). Maybe a new hood would set it off good. Ever think of ram air with maybe some gold accents on the hood maybe stripes

Nate

Edit-Oh also get some bird stickers for the sides and all the stock locations they were put and maybe white out the trans am logo on your front fender.
