Default Some New Pics of my Formula

I got the car a few months ago, and I've been working on it slowly. I snapped a few pics a couple days ago. Next mod is some BMR springs, its sitting way too high right now. Give me your opinions on what I should do after the springs. Thanks!

Its the little things that add up.. Clean *** Formula you have there

I would ditch the truck tips for a tucked/dumped exhaust setup. Im not a fan of tips on formulas.

Niteshade the sidemarkers. And maybe some black or black and stainless etched overlays.

Maybe do the !wire mod for the passenger fender?

Thanks Screamin. Im actuall wanting to go with a TD setup with GMMG tips or tucked, the stainless overlays and wire mod have actually been on my mind also.

Emblem Pros (think they are a sponsor here someplace) they sell quality stainless overlays but they also sell one with black etching.. So its not all black and its not all stainless.

Might transition in nicely with your wheels but yet be not so bling-tastic to draw attention.

Nice looking car, after lowering springs I would put an overlay on the front bird, remove the formula badging on the doors, get some inserts for the "Pontiac" on the bumper and tint your front and rear side markers. I would keep the stock hood, I love the clean look.
