if you guys wana know my mods just ask..no motor work done yet im in the planning stages

y2k's im looking for some black wheels ..... I like the full black out look....or just powder coat em

they look nice one your car where did you buy them from?

ebay....picked em up in PA .... just look around their pretty comon i think

Nice looking car but....

Lose the louvers. It would look even better

x2

x3

LOL yeh yeh yeh i just need time to take em off just got home from work and not about to take it of at 12:11 am but they will go back on some time


hey sinister z hows your car doin/ how have you been?
....i so want the hawks 5 inch spoiler with a 3rd brake light..... been playin around with that idea for awhile

I have keeping busy & the car is doing just fine...thanks, go for the 5" spoiler it will look good on your car but take off those louvers...it will look sleeker!

yeh i will inbtween cort and going to work

Your car looks like a beast on the outside looks great.. personally i'm a fan of the louvers.. but if you wanna do the 5 in spoiler then i'd defintily ditch them..

Don't do it, it looks MUCH better as is.

All black wheels = yuck. It will look like it's on four donuts.

Ya, I wouldn't get rid of the loovers. But I think they look cool. I was trying to get a set that was local to me but the guy never got back to me. I see your in MD also. If you want to sell them let me know. Hehe

deffenetly not goign to sell em. court took longer than i thought so looks like ill take em off tomorow or sumthing

Personally like the louvers, here in Hawaii it keeps my car so much cooler, especially on a black car. Also keeps my rear leather seats in good condition.

Looks good. Im running rear louver to. NICE but tired of cleaning window.
Black wheels would look good, maybe with a chrome or polished lip.

the hood fits great

OH MAN!!!

Where did you get that hood? It dosent look like the usual SS hoods everyone has. I want one, could you give me some info?


Very Nice

I had to play with the fenders a little bit to get the hood to fit better.Their is a small gap in the front of he hood,between the front of the hood and the nose.

It is an ASCD SS hood, i bought it from another TGO member ( camaro05)
for $275 and picked it up at his place,which is about an hour and half away
here is a link to thread that he posted so you can see some other angles of the hood.

~side note~ got my A-arms,crossmember, wonderbar today

what did you do with old hood

The old hood is in my shed.

for everyone eles here is an update.

wow, from when you first got it to now is a night and day difference, you're making some pretty quick progress on it. The car looks great! I like everything and definately agree with losing the louvers, the dark tint on the back window will help with keeping it cool and the sun out. I'd stick with chrome wheels though, I like all black but the chrome is just enough to break it up some. Anyways, obviously you've got good taste so I'm sure no matter what you do it will look good. Keep up the good work and keep us posted!

yea the car looks sweet!

what next is the big question....

10x better looking now without the louvers

NEXT IS A GOOOD ALARM.now just witch one ?

Car looks 1000x better without the louvers. I still gotta check that car out sometime. Maybe if i ever get mine running we can meet up. lol...

yeh deffenetly man, I would love to see your beast too.

That thing has a whole new attitude without those louvers on there. Awesome looking car dude!

Car is looking good man. I like cars both ways with and without louvers. However, yours looks better without them IMO. Keep up the hard work.
