Now, thats what I'm talking about!!! The car looks great, love the color, the hood, and the wheels are perfect!! I do think that the car could sit a little lower, and you really should paint those mirrors - other than that its all good.

How much did that paint job cost you?Are you going to put the rest of the decals,like the body stripe but i love it.Thats what my 87 would look like if i painted it.I just spent all my money on new engine and mods.Modify BEFORE you beautify is the way i see it.I should have mine painted in the next 12 to 18 months.I HOPE!WISH MINE LOOKED THAT GOOD.

I have everything but the carpet to redo the interior in black......Black & Silver 4th gen seats and Black & Silver GTA Door Panels. I just gotta get off my butt and buy the carpet, but its kinda hard to drop 250$ on carpet so it may be another month or so.

The front and rear are both 18's I just goofed on the front tire size so it does look smaller. Im gonna have to live with it until I feel like buyin new front tires, but since im going with a LS1 rear I may just get new rims and tire all together. Im hopin when I get the lowering springs on that its won't be so noticeable.


Thanks

I have 1.75 drop springs front and rear just gotta finish buying the suspension stuff before they go on........I really can't wait til I get the suspension squared away. The mirrors will stay black though that is one thing I really wanted done when I got it painted even though I get a weird look every now and then.

1800$ for paintjob. Next time around im either gonna do the stock black and silver stripes or just leave the Z decal and do some heritage stripes on the hood and decklid.

Sweet ride fella, That is one of the better looking cowl hoods that I've seen. Thats one thing I want on mine. It will look mean once you get the lowering springs on it. KUDOS

i dont know if you'd wanna put Grey carpet in your car, but i have a set of grey carpet that came out of my car that is slightly faded, it's brand new it was only in my car for about 6 months, but being with the top down it kinda faded it to a blueish grey color...i'd take $100 for it, or $150 with the Z28 embroidered floor mats

Nice looking ride! May I suggest a bowtie grill and opting for an in hatch (91-92) third brake light. Other than that, looks great!

Those are on the list of things to get. I got the camaro grille when I got it painted thinkin I was gonna keep the car stock(didn't last a week) but after seeing that you could get a bowtie grille(never notice people had em) I have decided on one and probably paint it silver(might keep it red). If I find one close by I will be getting the newer hatch when I get ready to re-tint the windows, thats one reasons the windows are not tinted yet.

Thanks for the offer but other than the seats and door panels haveing some grey on them the rest of the interior will be black.



Thanks Again Guys

Hey like the paint, the wheels, looks nice but like they say, it'll never be finished.

Keep up the good work.

looks pretty sharp! I think an SS hood woulda looked more at home than that cowl does, but the gorgious paint more than makes up for it!

Except for that wonderful '86 special 3rd brake light, she looks killer!

props.

Thats a real nice car you got. I think the mirror look slick it adds a dimension to the car. I though I was the only one who wanted the mirrors in black but I guess not. Anyway, I will be getting mine black when my car gets painted also.

it could go lower.

Drop-dead gorgeous.

Keep the Z28 spoiler off that car. They're overdone and dated looking. Your stock spoiler looks great, as would a Hawks 5" version to compliment the cowl hood.

I was looking around on ebay last night and found this 52000 mile iroc that has the exact same lowering springs i bought. First time ive got to see a car with them, and after seeing that Im gonna try and get the springs on the car in the next weekend or so.

There Suspension Techniques lowering springs 1.75" f/r drop.

i like it , i just dont like the 86 only glass , if i were you id get a new defrosterless hatch glass and have it tinted 5% and then paint the mirrors the car color . but it looks good besides those little things. o yeah and your hood fit is great , very nice.
