Thanks for the compliments. The interior isn't gonna change much from stock minus updated gauges. For now I'm just gonna lower it with 2" lowering springs in the front and blocks in the back. Then when I get serious I will do drop spindles, tubular front suspension and a 4 link setup. Then some c5/c6 brakes, lsx and t56. But it will come in time. I'm just enjoying it for now.

You don't need much HP when you are riding in style.

It's not a real split bumper. It's still a good looking car. Congrats op.
