Best appreance mod for the $?
I am redoing my firebirds exterior and entire look. Tinting windows/tail lights black, painting wheels black, new hood, high rise spoiler, lowering, etcetc. I ask for opinions and advice, no hating on my poor old V6 please. My parents don't pay for anything, but they agreed if I drove the V6 until it dies completely then they will help with getting a new trans am. Yeah I'm gonna have fun with this while I can. I ust want to know what exactly you did to your car to make it look the best in your eyes. I know just putting the chrome TA wheels on mine from those HIDEOUS v6 firebird wheels made it look 100X better. I want the WS6 imitation hood, there is a local guy selling one. I can probably talk him down seeing as I can get a brand new one with shipping for this.

Ha LS1 front clip would be sweet. but just get a 98+ when your V6 goes... in the mean time it sounds like you are on the right track. that hood will give you a face lift for sure! new paint and tint and you're pretty much there. maybe a drop kit, but save the money for go fast mods on an LS1.
Good luck! and what ever you do to you car make sure you like it!

I would make it to where the timing chain breaks and ******* the engine or something lol
Would a trans quailify as death? Thats an easy option lol
Honestly save the money, if I had a v6 car thats what I would do. Save it for when you get the v8 so you can do some nice stuff with it. I have a hard time justifing buying parts for my z when I want a m6 ta really.

put it this way, buy all the parts you want hood, springs, tint, clip, etc. once the V6 dies part out the car you'll get money back & than use that for your next whip. thats basically what i did with my V6 maxima lol it was fun too

Nothing wrong with building a V6 car up to look nice. I have a 91 V6 Camaro that Im in the process of repainting Hugger Orange. I want something nice to daily drive and not worry about touching the engine. I have my V8 if I need something fast, but a nice looking V6 would be cool for a daily driver. My vote would be LS1 front end with the ws6 hood and some nice wheels and call it a day.

or you could look at it this way..... A guy here in town has a 98+ V6 camaro. Red, SS hood, SS spoiler......EVERYTHING. It is immaculate and has nice wheels ect ect. It took everyone a few minutes to catch on that it was a V6 car. Now all he has to do is swap in a new drivetrain.
