I've been busy lately but I finally got a chance to snap a few pictures of the car with polished tips on it. They are slant-cut tips with rolled edges.

Thanks man.

Here's a shot centered from the rear...


The rest of the exhaust setup consists of Hooker #2055 headers, a 3in. Catco hi-flow cat, 3in. Dynomax intermediate pipes, and a Hooker aerochamber muffler. It's not as loud as I would have hoped but I can feel the added power.

In the works: custom door panels and leather seats, full suspension upgrade, and custom box/audio setup.

Wow nice car, those tips look good. I would take off the GTS stickers on the blackouts though.

The car looks good man!

In my humble opinion though, I don't know about the tail light blackouts, for some reason they just don't look right to me. I like the headlight blackouts, but taillights... *shrug*, go figure.

I've thought about getting a silver 5.7 emblem for quite a while now. I'll probably go ahead and pick one up. I just hope that it doesn't make my 25th anniversary badge stand out like a sore thumb. As for the GTS stickers I think I'll keep them on for now since they match the stripes as well as my other decals. However, once I get around to having 5% tint put on the windows I go ahead and remove all of the stickers on the car.

Im not a big fan of rolled tips (or tips sticking out for that matter), but nonetheless they look good on your car
