I'm not sure what you are asking? the brake system is the factory setup, I changed the rotors to drilled & slotted. The calibers are stock but I polished them



This is the old rotors

Has anyone ever seen a big bird decal for the rear window? Like the phoenix on the front plate filler.

I get comments on it all the time. I love the way it looks on NBM or Black.

haha. thanks man. You did good. I have a bunch of exterior stuff coming from Specialized Stainless for Xmas from the wife. I havent done anything since I got it, except replace the seat belt guide. I actually havent even driven it and finally got it registered today.

My daughter started to cry when I started it up around her though

CETA mod is where Trans Am guys paint the lower part of the rear bumper. On CETA (Collector Edition Trans Ams), they had yellow paint and the lower part of their rear bumper is a semigloss (iirc) black.

Like 99FormulaM6's car, he has a NBM car with a flat black? CETA mod on his rear bumper

Lowering you car is one the best mods IMO. It can be done for relatively cheap if you are patient and hold out for a good deal. Exterior, I would pay some attention to your calipers and rotors. A lot of people overlook their rusty/ flaking brakes. Lets see the new ride!
