Default The new look, Pics inside

Well over the last month or so I've been collecting ideas and here is what I got.

Finally painted the ss hood with the manta stripe, removed the front grill and filled all the holes,and a ss spoiler w/ black underside. Have ordered new z28 emblems since one is cracked, also have the inserts coming for the front bumper, new nose emblem, and a black bowtie to replace the red one on the rear. Also got some black halo headlights to replace those old faded stockers. Let me know what ya think.

I actually kind of like the spoiler. It's definitely different, but it looks good.

Thanks for all the comments. I was going to lower it but I don't want to do just springs. I want to do everything at once(shocks, struts, springs, panhard, etc.) Needless to say it was a little out of the budget right now.

I have thought about black wheels but I wouldn't pain mine. I have never seen any of them that I liked painted. A friend of mine is getting black wheels with a machined lip for his trans am. Might have to test fit them on mine first.

The holes look so much better filled in. I think the spoiler would look better if you had a black berger panel
