first, sorry to goosejg73 for borrowing the pic of his car from readers riders, but it looks just like mine and i needed a dead on side pic (andi have no idea what the blue things were so i removed them).

SOOOO, i was bored at work today and started to think about rims and stuff. i have a 90 firebird with the TA body kit on it, so it looks exactly like this except it has the firebird wing. anyway...i have blackouts on the back, and i am gonna black out my side marker lights and tint my windows. and i think these rims are sweet. they are darkened chrome and look different at night than during the day....but tell me what you think of this "project" car. all the work was done in photoshop....OVERKILL? or BADA**?

don't worry unforgiven, you're not the only one that remembers the episode

Looks great, I think. the only area that might be overkill is the rims. but i think only a little bit more silver in that area would make it better.

You know how the black "GTA" rims have the silver outter edges? I think that'd be JUST enough to add a lil silver to the scheme

Otherwise, the whole blackout and tint-job's awesome!

i updated the pic a little, the rims didn't look quite as dark on real cars, that was a studio shot....so they actually look a littl lighter. just looking for opinnions cause i don't recall seeing the many birds and TAs with rims....
