Done with finals! Time for a quick photoshoot...

So walked out of my last final today, and decided to give the SS some TLC and take some pics at good old Bill Snyder Family Stadium. Needed some release. Never posted pics on here, so here she goes... Let me know what you think! Just redid the 10 spokes... wanted something different so i did the gold stripe around the edge, Berger'd it, and did the center of the dash.... Got big plans for some more performance mods this summer!

And they also include pc'ing the grille (damn rock chips), probably projectors (stock ones are hazy, and the rubbers are bad), and smoothing/painting the FRC's and lid. Enjoy!

I like everything except the huge SS badges on the grille and the Gordon badge. Everything else is top notch.

Thanks man! Ya i'm a gordon fan, wanted something to show support and not be goddy like a window sticker. I'm probably taking it off and throwing a 5.7 badge there soon anyway. The SS badge on the grille is the same chevelle badge everyone else uses on theirs too, but i'm probably going to pc it black with the grille too, and do the outline in silver to match the other badges. It really isn't huge at all, its the same size as all the others, it just looks bigger because its white.

Ya i need to chop the shifter a bit, the adapter is really long. Its just the B&M **** with an MBA adapter, and Redline shift and e-brake boots.
