There you are

<img src = "http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1647335&a=12609157&p=46701937">

Click edit to see the code to post your first pic. Use a Less Than sign followed by the words "IMG SRC" then "=" followed by quotes, the address starting with HTTP: (remember to reference the pic and not the page) and close with quotes and a greater than sign.

Hope this helped

Nice car, man. There is nothing wrong with that color, but maybe it could look even cooler if you lost the louvers on the hatch glass, tinting it instead, and painted some clear taillight covers to match the paint...same thing with headlight covers...If you leave the car how it is, its still a nice car and I always like seeing pics of 3rd gens. Later man, and keep up the good work!!

I think it looks sweet! The yellow paint goes good along with the yellow letters on the tires. Your whole car is color-corrdinated very well. The louvers look pretty nice. I've seen louvers on other camaros and they looked pretty bad, but yours looks good, the whole thing is real nice!

Zaino is a professional car polish. Not a wax. It can make a car shine so much, that if you look into it, its practically a mirror w/ a filter on it.

dont forget that it lasts a long time (6-8 months), and will not wash off.

It's actually a bad picture... but the car does shine really well. I use a wax we have at the dealership I used to work at. It's pink-wax/polish and we got it from the distributor Auto Magic. Nothing shines the car better. Costs about 50 a gallon. Very good stuff.

Were those white-letter tires that were colored yellow? Or did they come yellow? If they were colored yellow, is it paint?

yea, I did buy them yellow. I had to sacriface a slightly higher profile and less width, but all in all, I'd say it's worth it. They have better traction when the weather isn't so great, plus I just like the looks of them. I strive to be different, and I hadn't seen anyone do this yet... so I thought, what the hey. It has to be paint... what else would it be?
