Default What-cha' think?

Hello all, well got home from Iraq on R&R and my car was witing on me. Wow the first time I saw it it absolutely took my breathe away. And then I fired it up..... My questions now are, what do you guys think? And what kind of rims do you think would complement my setup, I don't drag much, just cruise on the highway.




Sorry I know they are kind of big.

She looks good just like she is!.........but some Chrome Corvette 18" Y2K's would look nice IMO, Fiske or HRE's would do the job nicely too.....

thanks for your service soldier..........

Sorry guys, it tends to get a little misleading. I'm not a soldier, I work for KBR providing engineerng support for our troops. I was never honored enough to be a soldier, couldn't cut the medical exam, damn asthma. Thanks for the compliments guys, when shes cleaned up it looks real mean. So nobody thinks the body kit is too much? Not many people say it looks bad on there. I think it goes with the factory body lines very well. I'm mainly looking for something that can handle the cornering real well and get a better contact patch in the back end. They tend to go up in smoke pretty quick.

I never liked ground effects on T/A's. I'd take that off and get some 18" wheels all around.

not too big a fan of GFX usually, but they look good on your car, which is beautiful. thanks for supporting our troops regardless of your soldier status.

I think they look great on the car. I usually dont like GFX either. My vote if you were counting.. keep em! Some rims would really set that car off. Maybe even some HP Evos.

I got them from a non sponsor web site on sale for like 300$, normally 600$ i think. They are Wings West W-Type ground effects. It has a front lip side skirts and tail skirts. The non sponsor rhymes with kegs. I'm going to have to look up all these rims ya'll are naming. I can't wait to get home and get my exhaust mods done. Yungn what kind of rims are those in your sig? I can't quite tell in the picture, they look like C5 rims painted black.

Yeah I have the firebird plate cover but before i got home from iraq my dad installed the front and rear plates for me with those non unscrewable screws that you see in bathroom stalls. Why someone would want to steal a stall door I will never understand, but a liscence plate i can understand. When I go home for good I will probably take some chanel locks and back the screws off and put the cover back on there.
