Default Pic's of my car

Well yesterday I posted pix of my interior and now got around to posting pic's of my car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . So once again, please tell me what you guys think so far.

PS: Sorry but my car is fairly dusty in the pix (to me this is dirty), but I wanted to get some picture's up so you guys can take a look <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

The car looks nice now but once you get the clear corners and wheels it will look <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> .

I like the rear blacked out tail panel it looks great!

I think your GN wannabee stripes are 1) too narrow and 2) played out.

John is it a GN (grand national?) or GS (grand sport)stripe?

My stripes are exactly the same as Xsta's (measurements and all, they were even made the same person *mark), except for the fact that they are black instead of silver <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . I personally love the way they look, but thanks for the comment!

Your car looks fantastic! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Once you get those clear corners, your grill and highlights will match up really well. Your real panel looks great too. LOWER THAT BADBOY ASAP! <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

The clear corners should be here in a few days <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

LS1MONSTER - I hope to lower it soon, but I'm saving money for a STB, PHR, and the springs; If I'm gonna do it I wanna have it done right. Then once I have enough $$$ after rims I'll finish it off with shocks, lower control arms ect... Thanks for the kind words 2!

BTW your car is looking good! Although it must be an optical illusion, cause the stripes do look skinny! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I know I made them exactly the same but why do yours look skinny compared to Andy's? Did you modify them at all?

Do you have a closer picture? Maybe it's just an optical illusion. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Nope, didn't modify them at all.

I measured them to make sure they were the same as andy's (gave me measurments awile back), and they are 2 1/8th thick and a 5/8 gap between the two.

I dunno... must be the pics playin games?

Also, after lookin at the pics I to thought they looked skinnyer (sp), but maybe its the fact that the stripes are darker then the car, but with andy's its opposite...

Well I think it looks really good but you could really use some lowering springs on that 4x4! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

For some reason, the LS1 cars with stock suspension sit way too high. Silly GM...
