Damnnn....very nice! That has got to be one of the cleanest birds I've ever seen. Your paint is perfect...sooo red...and I love that hood. I'm glad that you kept the car simple and did not add too many crazy ****, like most people do. Very Nicely done!

Nice car. But I love your 4th gen. I am hoping to get a 4th gen for my second car. I really want a '98-01 TA or WS6.

VERY NICE!!! I'm actually not much of a fan of red (my cars red, going black soon) but that car is spotless... paint is perfect. Very nice. I also want a 4th gen. I want a new SS with the ZR1 wheels.

I want a 4th gen as well
The carpet is probably just mashed around and the fibers reflected the light different. In pictures my black interior appears a dark dark maroon to brown color.

Yeah, I like keeping it pretty simple. Before the show, I even removed the ZAINO BROS decal and LS1-style FORMULA badge from the rear bumper (even though they were really sharp looking) I want to have a Bird SOMEWHERE on the car, so I'll probably keep the nose bird that you see there. I also like the Ram Air decals. I'll also be blacking out the tail light center panel, and adding 85-90 T/A Taillights soon. Other than that, I BADLY want to remove the side molding, but my paint guy clear coated over them and I'd have to get those parts of the car redone. So, I'll just live with it for now.

Thanks for the comments guys. I've learned a lot about what to do and what not to do from this site

I took pictures of the interior of my car recently and was very disappointed in the way the floor mats looked. The camera picked up all the discoloration from dirt. They looked clean until the camera showed differently. I shampooed the floor mats and found the water was filthy when I was done. Lesson learned.
