CamaroStud1988 what size TT2s are those? 16s? What size tires? looks real nice. I like the SS hoods on 3rd gens. Very smooth and updates the 80s look.

Looks good...cant wait to see it in paint!

Mine is still in black primer, gonna paint it soon. I have an Edlebrock STB on mine and i had to notch the underside pan to get it to fit. I used some vacum hose to run around the outside of the notch. Split it with a razor blade and sliped it over the edge. Looks pretty clean, and best of all i get to keep my brace.

Looks good....The Black is a nice touch.

IM debating on putting hood locks on mine but not sure. Yeah post some more pics of it when you can. IM not sure if i want the hood locks to be chrome or black.

Did have to do much prep work to get it straight? My hood is still in primer.
