Default A few Pics of our 2000 Formula - Ram Air - Eibach Springs and RPM Wheels

I wanted to post a few pics of the 2000 Formy I just finished...after the white one we did a few months ago I figured a matching black one would be cool! The car is a 1 owner car that lived about 5 miles away from us its whole life and I had all the parts laying around...so what the heck.

I have same car 100% stock, trying to keep it that way because of the low milage. But WOW I love what you did, those wheels really set it off. I never said I would say it but that is better looking than my black TA. Thanks for sharing! Almost forgot to mention the hood, Perfect classic.

It's a Suncoast Creations WS6 hood, and that's the way their functional ram air box is set up. It's very similar to a LT1 WS6 airbox.

I have one for my Formula, but I took it off because it rubs on my hood.

Lets see the Silver Anniversary car, used to own a automatic about 15 years ago, still kicking myself to this day for selling it...

Nice find!
How are the seat covers and carpet? Those damn silver leather seat covers cost have kept me from buying a few of these cars in the past.

Maybe I can step up my wheel game sooner, tired of mine not matching the body and the constant "why would you put vette wheels on a trans am" comments. I need one of those hoods with matching lid in my life as well. Very nice looking car man
