What you guys think?

This is how my car is looking right now. I have new fenders a GTA hood for the spring along with GTA rims. What do you think of it now? Any ideas I could do

Your car looks really nice man, pretty sweet for a 17 year old. It may be just me but I dislike those wings like you have. If I were you I would pick up a GTA or formula wing for it. That would look really good IMO.

Very clean, but in my opinion, definately remove the bra. Most of the time they end up doing more damage than good.

I like black bra's on white thirdgens.
I have one on my '92rs. Put it on to cover up a crack that some 15 year old dork in a kia made when he blew a stop sign. At first i didn't like it....but with time it grew on me. Never did fix the crack on my bumper, but I got $991 from the kid's insurance company.

Thanks guys for all the compliments . The bra is also covering some imperfections in my bumper. It will be off once it gets painted I only paid $200 for the car and put about 1500 into it so far I love my car

I wouldn't put anything on it. I would leave it looking like it does, it's a sweet looking Firebird! And what an awesome sleeper that would make!

Just get rid of those two small bump strips on infront and behind of your door

Looks real good man, body looks to be decent but she doesn need to loose the bra, Thats a cool little deal your club does having like a featured member of the month, i'm gonna suggest that to coloradof-body.

I'm 19 and have a teal car, however my dad has our project we did when i was younger thats a 81Z and its white, i was 17 when we were workign on it though
