Clean car bro.

A few little things that will make a difference IMO.

Lose the molding, lose the FORMULA badges. Whatever that badge is above the fender vents, it just looks weird.

Polish that faded bird all the way out of your filler or get new vinyls for it.

Clean car definetely, I don't care for the twistys (I used to have them on my car) they just don't look right on a car that otherwise flows so well.

your car looks good man . i think it would look good without the trim and the firebird on the side . also maybe do somehting on the back with the filler panel and
the ceta mod on the bumper would be awesome with the color of the car .

Can't really do CETA to a Formula, the bumper is different.


You can... it would just look kinda funny.

Very nice. +1 about the molding and badging. You can see it a little better on my F-quick. WHITE-LS1-FORMULA

Tar and bug removal works real good and taking the glue off the paint with out hurting the finish.

I would agree with removing the molding and thing above the fender vents, but I'd leave the FORMULA on the door, unless you are going for the V6 sleeper. Sharp *** Bird either way though. Can't say I've seen the Twisties too often. Most TAs/Formulas came with Chrome 16's instead of Twisties.

those are actually turn signals above the fender vents. i would love to find the previous owner and kick him in the ***** for doing that.

the first thing i'm doing is a set of 01/02 ws6 wheels and a drop. then i'm going to find a ram air hood that's already silver. i'll eventually get rid of the gay *** turn signals on the fenders but that will require body work.

i made the "LS1" badge out of a "SILVERADO" badge from a new truck.

i was going to just do a H/C/I swap but i already have too much power for the stock tranny and rearend to handle. so for now i'm just going to make it look better.

Damn, why'd you put the LS1 emblem on the back? That ruined the whole sleeper look.

yea i know. i got bored. lol. but yea the thing that really makes me sick when i look at it is the pair of fender turn signals. hopefully this week i'm getting some ws6 wheels. then i'll get a ram air hood and when i paint it i'll fill in the holes in the fenders and paint those.
