Default Couple pics of my Formula...

Well took a couple pics of the formula yesterday. I was fighting with the light since it was late. I have to take a few more when its brighter outside.

Comments (either negative or positive) appreciated

No this is a 2000 formula. My previous car was a 1996 Firebird. Traded that one in for the Formula.

Very nice car. Is that an aftermarket hood? I've never seen the stock formula wheels in chrome before. They look much better than the plain silver, especially on a dark car.

Its an aftermarket hood from VFN. The wheels came with the car. I bought the car used with 19k miles on it, so I'm guessing the wheels came stock, maybe the dealer chromed them.

Thanx for the replies guys!

Hey man your car looks badass, but I think it would benefit from a 1.5-2.0 inch drop. Just my .02, good work on the hood.

Love the chrome stock twisties, I'd keep them on the car personally. How was the fitment on the VFN hood? Im considering getting their 4" non ws6 ram air hood for my car, any problems with yours?

Bad Blu Formula - I'm thinking a set of Boyd Coddington Smoothie II's in the 17's for the future..possibly next spring.

onebadz - Yes, also thinking 1.5" drop. First I'm looking at purchasing a winter and all around year car, after that the massive modding will begin

KMStevens - Ya I still havent found chrome twisties on another car so I'm diggin these rims. The VFN hood didnt fit too badly. Needed to shave it down a bit, and enlarge some of the holes under the hood, but besides that you can see from the pic it wasnt too bad. The second link has a nice air shot of the lines on the hood. Not bad really. Plus I got in on a GP a while back, ran like $425 or something, you cant beat that. I also live in about 30 mins from their shop so no shipping.

Thanx for all the replies guys!

Looks Good.

Those chrome twisted star wheels are unique as far as I know. To my knowledge, the twisted star wheels only came in silver paint. The optional chrome wheels (which I have) are not twisted, they are the stock wheels on the T/A.

Hmmm, that car looks very familiar to me for some reason. .

Here is how your car would look with 18s, or with the tires in the air:

Yeah? Which photo are you using? That Formula is enjoying its life in retirement up in KY, but I bet it misses the wheel stands
