Wow! looks great. i like everything about it, that color is gorgeous, and the new stripes flow much better with the rims and car as a whole. Very clean looking car

And the engine bay looks very nice. the only ting that looks out of place is the comp cams sticker.

Much better! A set of TTII's or some HP Evo's if you can find them and that car would be done!

the quality is great but my only complaint on the hood is that it rubs the lid a little. i have been looking for a set of tt2's but i don't want the polished ones. they would have to be chrome and i got to get rid of these first if i did find the tt2's.

Honestly I see that style of wheel on anything from Cavaliers with 15's to Tahoe's with 24's. Those wheels scream "cheap hoopty" to me. Everything else is great.

The new stripes look a **** ton better, very clean car. IMO all you need is a ta hatch and your set. I like the wheels just not on a f body, some tt2's would look mean on it.

Don't buy what everyone is telling you to buy. Keep them if you like them. Yes I do prefer other wheels that I think would look better. But it's not my car. Wheels do look good. Just not my style. Overall, car looks great!

You can't get a full chrome TT2 if I remember correctly. Chrome center and polished drum is about as good as you can get.

I'm not a fan of the wheels either. The goal isn't to be different. To me the goal is to look good. Sometimes people do the same thing because is looks good. Different doesn't always mean good.

However the overall goal is for YOU to be satified with YOUR car.
