Trenz grill is on with the z06's
I guess it looks pretty good. What's killing my car is the damn front bumper. uhh I hate it. And i have rags underneath the back of the bumper lip to push it up.. its rediculous, also if my hood goes down anymore my fenders where they meet the hood will be uneven and not flush.

Not sure why the front of the hood would lift like that unless the hood was bent...
I like the color/wheels/grille... I'm not a fan of cowl induction hoods unless they are very low..

Shave some off the rear spacers on the (cnc)
durtybird-the hoods not bend the front of the car was in an accident because of the previous owner. The light bucket was broken in half, right fender all busted up, the bumper is also warped a bit, look at the light pockets

Looks like the front bumper is actually back a little bit i remember seeing your headlights messed up some too i bet you need a new headlight support bar. Also the rear wheels look like they stick out a little too much and get the Z hood on and it will look sweet. You need the v6 lowering springs also cause those v8 ones prob ride terrible on a v6.

i said the bucket was broken in half from the crash. I already replaced that light bucket support that goes acrossed. It was so hard getting the bumper back on when i put the new support in

well , i like the grill but you need to do a few things before the show. most will be pretty cheap . The milling of the spacers/adaptors, the clear markers. Lower the car a bunch , with sportlines , take out the headlight and the front trun signals and polish them , they look like crap and just need to be poished to their bright orignal luster and get the front lip finished, also if its gonna get painted what about getting the black buckets and doing the front bumper like the japanese maro , you know with the opening painted black a little.

I agree with 18inchboyds. I just kept thinking how much you need new turn signals.. it would look really good that way. I agree with the black headlight pockets too. The grille looks great though
Nice car!

Brisk-My grille was 175$, got it here
http://www.seffects.com/parts/TRE2064CP.htm
18inchboyds-Great great points. All these I have been
thinking about. I was also thinking about cutting the dropzone springs if I have to unless someone wants to trade me their sportlines for my dropzones
... I just don't have enough time to purchase stuff and go through all the money as i'm spending a lot right now.. Maybe i can find some used ones cheap. If you know any one getting rid of some please let me know. And i still have a custom box for 2 15's to make where the back seats were. I'm in rush mode. Deadline =june 11
astoria18-Thanks I dunno about the paint in the light bucket area tho.
Gr89rs- You know where the hoods center meets the top of the bumper. Right at that lip of the top of the bumper, underneath that you have your light bucket that goes across. I wedged small slits of rags in between the light bucket and the lip of the bumper, it helped a bit. I plan to get a mint bumper some day.

not if you have the snorkle. Its barely noticable though. Try it. Get a small peice of rag, roll it up and shove it in there mess around with it. Really i just need a mint bumper, the only way to fix it the right way

No worries, doesnt matter lol. Man I could just see your face when your dad put in on the truck and scraped the front there. I would **** a brick
But yeah as Spdfrk1990 said you should polish headlights and the lamps.
I also think the buckets would look good black. But its your car
