Looks good man!

 

Thanks, my gf took some great pics in my oppinion

 

Looking good man, so what happened with the MACCO thingy?

 

i need to find a ride for a few hours on either a tuesday or wednesday and they will fix everything, the BBB recieved my complaint last week sometime..

other then that, i'm looking into upholstery so i can finish my car before the big car show in town this summer....that and i am going to experiment with garbage bags, windex, and old tints..

 

I used simple green, I just peeled a lil at a time spry simpl green, let it sit, peel-spray-sit. It took everything off, make sure you have some old sheets to cover your seats, door panels, ect. Plus it smelled clean for a few days after that...lol, if all else fails the good ole hair dryer works, but it takes some time.

 

I'll buy some of that also, i went to a tint shop and they quoted me $120 just to remove it, but one of the guy's pulled me aside and told me that that's what they did to take the tint, off, it took time but didn't mess up the rear defroster..

 

do you by chance have a technique to suggest?

 

You can also use those green scrub pads the ones you use on pots & pans to take off stuck & burnt food. It won't mess up your rear defrost & it cleans the windows really nice. If you do it yourself I suggest to remove the door panels so they wont get soaked. The hatch is gonna be a PITA if you dont have a garage, cause the sun sucks when you have to look up with no shade. Then when its all done just let her sit in the sun fr an 1hr. to air & dry it out. Sometimes you might get lucky & peel it rite off, & just gotta spry & use the pad to clean off the glue residue. Thats the technique I used on all my cars & it worked perfectly.
What also works if you have one of those self standing steamer things to get the wrinkles out of your clothes, the ones like the infomercial, the hot steam makes it so much easier & cleaner.

 

Pics look good man. Nice job.

 

what is the profile of those tires?

 

For the tint's the guy just told me on a hot day (which this weekend it's supose to hit 90 so it sounds perfect) get towels to cover any area that may get wet from windex.. spray the crap outta the back window and cut a black grabage bag to fit the rear window, let sit, and every 30-45min's go respray and after about 2 hours take it off and get a steel wool pad and the rest is just elbow grease, the shop i went to showed me pictures of what the cars looked like before and after with the tint useing that technique so i'm going to do it and hopfully by next week have some pics up with it all off..

and as for the profile of my tires their 235/50/ZR17's...

 

yeah i think a 50 series tire is a bit too tall for 17's. i noticed the profile looked a bit large

any plans to lower it? that would help. nice car tho

 

i've seen pics with slightly lower profile tires and they looked like they really needed to be lowered.. my speedo's still dead on with these, and i like the look, just personal preference i guess.. and i've played with the idea of lowering it.. but i already have scrapeing issues, leaving friends driveway's i already have to be careful backing out, i can only imagine what it'd be like with the car an inch lower

 

wow i remeber my Z28 was lower than that and i didnt have that many problems

 

You live in a town with good roads? going into our safeway parkinglot, and other places i have trouble.. idk how mcuh of a idfference it would make, what did you use to lower the car

 

Nice camaro man. I like the black rims

 

it was the factory springs. i live in a town with slightly above average roads. the car scraped every once in a while, but it was just the air dam.

 

thanks for the compliment

and my car's all stock.. i don't see how yours was any lower then mine if yours were stock..

 

either my springs sagged or its the profile of your tires. my car wasnt that much lower than urs tho

 

If you look up member Al Hasse he has lower profile tires then i do.. if you get a chance take a look at his compared to mine on his '89

 

Yep, your tires are a little taller than mine, a little more than 1/2". My 89 also has cut WS6 springs (1/2 coil each) and now sits maybe an inch lower than stock in front and 1/2" lower in the rear. It was about 27 1/2" from ground to top of each fender arch prior to cutting. Yours would look good about the same height. My 92 also sits at about this same height, but it has the same size tires as my 89, and very soft worn out springs.
