AS PROMISED: Mongoose pictures 56k beware I finally got to see my car in person with her new paint. The sun was out so I tried to snap some pictures, but, go figure, once I got her battery jumpstarted, the clouds had rolled in. :sillyme:

Thanks guys! On the inserts, I'd have to see what they looked like, but probably not. The SS badge is missing off the rear, but I didn't have time to drive her beyond the driveway there on this trip, so the body shop ordered the new one, and next time I get her out I'll have them apply it.

Wheels and complete suspension will be done when I finally move back home. I almost ordered a set of CCW's, but decided against having new rims/rubber sitting indefinitely while I'm gone.

That's the Wings West grill. I stole the idea from DVST8OR with his silver SS. Tom

Thanks! The mirrors I've always loved in black, especially with my windows having limo tint on them. The whole top of the car being black just kinda flowed. But now I'm really thinking about having them repainted in white when I take her out next.

To everybody suggesting black wheels....
I've always HATED black wheels. I HAVE seen a few nice black cars with polished lip/black wheels that looked decent. But I can't for the life of me picture anything in black on mine that I'd like.
BUT...
if anybody wants to submit any photoshop options for consideration, I'll definitely take a look!

But with all the gorgeous SOM and black cars out there, it may be hard to get a white car to stand out.

get some air in those back tires, they look really low, or atleast the back right if you are standing behind the car. The paint job looks very nice, I like the little white outline in the rear panel letters (or maybe its just me but it looks like it in the last few pics of the back).
