hey m3baller, i got a question!

What color are your tail light blackouts on your firebird in that picture you have? I have a black formula, so i would be a similar look. They got like carbon, smoke, what kind do you have? And also what do you think about them, do you have any trouble with them, and how do they stay on?
Thanks a lot man, i really appreciate it!

Hey man,

The part number of my tail light covers is GTS-GT034, GT Styling tail light covers for 86-92 Firebird except T/A (cause T/A tails are already smoked). They are smoked. So far i have not had any problems with them from anyone, police don't even really look.

I like them, they fit really good. They are attached with 3 pieces of some type of plastic 3m velcro, like little beads that push together, seem like they won't be able to be ripped off.

If you get them, make sure you use the alcohol pad in there to clean where the velcro goes. To put them together you put the two outside pieces on first, then the middle part slides into place while the others are on the car. You just need to open the hatch to make it easier.



I think i'm gonna remove the GTS stickers soon.

Hope this helps,
-Chris

Hey Chris Thanks a lot man! You answered all my questions perfectly! I just love your car man, those blackouts make it look so smooth and clean. Anyway I think i'm going to get some for my firebird. I went to autozone and they have them for $65.00, so i guess thats not too bad of a price. But Thanks for the help man and i'll talk to ya later!
Love the car!
-Ryan

Edit: Oh yea, i plan on SS or ZR1 rims. I don't want huge tires though (width). Maybe 17's. Anyone want to suggest anything? TT2, ROH RT's...black crosslace...any suggestions plz

Thanks, can't stop smiling here when people comment on my car.

I had to order them from autozone and i had like a $50 gift cert so it wasn't bad. I had to order them and pay before i had them tho.

Good luck. Here is another pic.

Think i should do a ram air hood or 4th gen spoiler, or aero spoiler? I might get it tinted too, car is too hot in the summer. Guess thats a reason i'd like t-tops :-)

I'm going to tint my windows when i get money later. Yea i think a ram air hood would look good on your firebird. Maybe the Ram Air II hood? But its up to you man. I like both the ss rims and zr1 rims so i can't really help ya there, sorry. About the spoiler, I have always liked the aero spoiler persoanlly, but the 4th gen spoiler is tight too, so that would be a hard decision, but i'm sure either one would look good! Keep up the good work on your car man, it looks great!
