Thank You!

Wow I like that a lot. I want to get new rims too but at the same time I like my original ones. I was gonna try and do some touch up painting. Inside of the honeycomb is gray and I was thinking about painting it black instead.

Re: Trans Am Tinted Windows-PICS PLEASE

So yea I heard I can't tint the rear windshield and plus I would bust my louvers if i tried to take them off. So tint looks out of the question, atleast for now with $ limitations. Definitely gonna polish my rims when I get new tires and put in the new engine this summer.

Since the tint is so cheap, I would do that first.

Re: Trans Am Tinted Windows-PICS PLEASE

That's no bad. I asked for a quote from a place and they said about 220-250. Then I would have to buy a new set of louvers cuz mine would break when taking them off.

Re: Trans Am Tinted Windows-PICS PLEASE

I love the silver gfx. I think the car looks so much better two tone . Ive seen a few red ones with the same hood and it just doesn't look as good , to me that is . Its your opinion . I like the two tone , very few cars come from the factory two toned so i like how it stands out and looks .
