Well, im not sure if i want tint or not, I like it that people can see me in it. I put some amber led's under the driver and passenger knee bolster areas. they look good at night, tried to take pics but didnt turn out so well.
I have a ported tb from a 99 z28 in the mail for me and a cf lid. I just gotta switch cams on tb with my stocker and i should be set. also got a fernco tube today, gonna hook it all up when everything gets to me in the mail.
I ordered some corsa tip clones from slt about a month ago but something happened with the money order i sent him and its taking forever for him to get it.
Plans as of right now are some lt's, e cutout(s), short stick, jaam ram air setup, and possibly true duals if i get the panhard relocation setup. I want to lower it but heard that i should get shocks too if i replace springs. I am a po boy in college on a major budget so all this isnt going to happen for a while.

Is that a real WS6? If so I think your badge fell off or unless you took it off.. I agree with everyone else on some tint, it would make it look tons better than she already does. People can still see you in it at 35% on the sides. You should get 5-20% on the back. Keeps the lights behind you out of your eyes. Car looks really good though. You might wanna stay off the modding wagon... even with low income you will always find yourself buying something else for it!

its a real ws6, checked the door rpo code. some ******* stole it off the car when it was on the lot like the week before i bought it. I test drove it one weekend and it had the badge, then the next weekend when i bought it the badge was gone. oh well, i ordered a ce black ws6 badge. it might not be true to the car but i think it will look good and thats all that really matters, right? I think tint is inevitable though, just how dark is the question.

nice car. if you tint the side windows, the back windows should be tinted also so it looks right.. good luck with your ported tb. I like the stock look on there too.

agree with everyone else about the window tint, tinted windows on black cars is a must! Not really feeling the front plate cover though. But overall nice car man

lol yeah i am iffy about the front plate too. It seemed like a good idea on paper... I was thinking of painting everything but the bird and then putting some leds in there so at night it will glow.

thanks for all the feedback, you guys really got me weighing my options on the tint now. all i know is that for the color scheme, nothing looks quite as good with black as... well, black.

lol it is, i just got it like a week ago pretty much. im on a budget gimme some time. It was owned by some guy in the military before me, he kept it bone stock and had it up to 52k miles. I was really surprised to find one completely unmodded. So far I got a lid, ported tb, interior leds, filter, 99 cent !CAGS, and some other minor stuff. Im just excited to finally have an ls1 fbody.

Agreed:
-get rid of the front plate cover
-get the tint!
-the first pic would turned out better of the wheels were turned to the right
-AND, once you start modding...it becomes a money pit. Been there, WAIT, still there
