OK, so I bought this car about 10 months ago and it was a real pile. Its been almost a year but heres what I have now. Just want some feedback. I cleaned it up a little today but will do the rest tomorrow. Its not the slickest but I really like it and I guess that's what matters, right?

I got the set for $250, polished them and sold the tires (mismatched) for 200, then sold my factorys for $250, bought a set of 295 KDWs with the rest.

Looks pretty nice overall, only thing I'm not a fan of is the steering wheel cover. Other than that, I'd match that nice ram air hood to the body. Sweet project, dude!

factory steering wheel is peeling apart at noon position. put that on till i install my MOMO wheel...need the adapter kit so i can install it...

this car sat in the sun for a long long time... i replaced ALL the interior except the carpet. It was literally as brittle as a potato chip. the steering wheel was bad too. I got this car from a guy on here LOLO07, hes a car flipper and I got taken.... This car needed so much **** it wasnt funny. Its all good though. I get compliments everywhere I go in it...

Silver would look killer with the red interior.

Yeah, anticop. I know what you mean about your car needing a lot of stuff. My Z has pretty much been the same way, but still I love her. F-bodies are money pits, but they're sooo worth it

^ Well, I refused to buy another set of TT2s or OE knockoffs but I picked this set up pretty much for free. Im trying to be different without getting flamed for it...

In their defense, the 98-02 Trans ams are the only 4th gens I think they look decent on.

If your not opposed to running a 5x120 bolt circle, a 19x10 enkei rpf1 would look gorgeous on a TA. Last I looked 19x10 was the only size offered in this bolt circle.
