He has a CME (CME optioned SS), but he took it off.


Nice car Jesus! Your car is looking CLEAN. Love the Sunoco hood too! You should put your CME back on.

The car is factory fully optioned slp ss with center mount I had it repainted but never put it back one because I wanted a different look, it will go back on one day

well I cant really say the price since I got it a bit cheaper then he normally charges since im best friends with the body guy there and let them take they're time with the car and it took me a while getting parts
( I used all oem gm parts) he only uses the best products and this wasy painted before they went with water base products.. after all said and done I wanna say it was a little over 9k...
give you a rough idea I bought

gm left fender front bumper
sunoco hood/lightweight struts
all new oem emblems
all new lights 6k hid kit
all new wheather stripping
etc...

I was going to red out the amber section, but the red vinyl has such a hazy gloss to it, while the blacked out vinyl looks shiny. I am probably gonna copy your idea on that one

go for it I can still say im the first guy (that I know of) with no side markers on only the amber blacked out If your in the Bay go talk to Rj in pleasenton tell him Jesus sent you, and have him do your tail lights its the only way to do it right and cost less then 150 from what I believe
