Default Pics, Nice yesterday. LBM looked sooo good!

I've convinently left out pics of the front as that is the half I've started sanding down. The whole car will be stripped down, but I haven't gotten to that. Hence, only pics of the rear. You ask why? The camara can't seem to pick up any of the 1 billion flaws in the paint. The car is going to be repainted.
If your wondering what LBM is, its LeMans Blue Metallic.

I think you're just leaving the front out so you can be like Wilson off of "Home Improvement"

Gorgeous car. I love the color

Yes, It will be a variation of it. Actually if you look at a LBM Vette, they are a lil different. I've got a friend with a the 04' LBM Vette with the silver and red strip and they are different. Mine is more blue where as his was more purple.


SpdFrk1990 - The rears are 295/35/18. Its on a 9.5" wheel, so thats as big as I could go. They look big because they are! Tires of the same size on the side aren't all the same width. It varies from brand and even model. My tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's. They are known to run wide!!

Damn! I love the look of that car so much.
Just from the CETA to that beautiful LMB.
Also the Texas license plate is really nice looking due to it not being customized and the blue letters and numbers match the color of the car and are just random. And not to tacky like other state plates.

They don't rub at all! The rear offset is 45mm. It probably would rub, but I have my fenders rolled. So even if they were to ever rub, they wouldn't get cut up. Another friend of mine has that professional fender roller...He did it for me.

Thanks, Texas rules!

The ceta will be redone gloss black. I'll do a photoshop later. DragonZ's stainless steel fill-ins and possibly the Trans Am license plate frame. I'm gunna redo the true duals on the car, so I might get the Corsa knock offs from Joshua instead of the Hooker slash tips. I should have done that the first time, but I do everything on the car twice before I like it. Including the paint job.
