Wow looks nice! I was thinking of going as dark as you with the tint, but i'm still changing my mind back and forth. I don't really like formulas much but yours is nice!

Re: My Formula 350

I'm not a fan of the black replacing the gray as the second color. I really don't like the black "Formula 350" lettering. However, I do love the tint job and the wheels.

Re: My Formula 350

Looks really good.

For the decals, I would have at least gone with the factory font style.

I think the cars look hot naked. the only place that says anything on my car is the "Pontiac" on the drivers side headlight bezel.

Re: My Formula 350

thanks guys! I wanted to make the car different. this was what I envisioned since the accident. I would have stayed stock if not for the a$$hole who hit me. i posted pics on here of the accident. the whole rear was smashed and the roof buckled. i looked around for a roller body but in michigan 90% of these cars are rusted out, i ended up trading electrical work for body+paint. the Formula 350 it actually painted on the doors. the reason i kept the 350 was i wanted people to know thats what it is. I do wonder what you guys think on something though. I was considering putting a firebird sticked on the hatch like a 3x3 big thirdgen style bird, ill try to find a pic and post it.

i wish i knew the color blue. i believe it is a stock blue from some sort of mazda? I cant remember though.
