It's a 6-speed.If I don't do the hockey stripes I'm for sure going to do the stripes on the sides of the hood.

Not stock... Sunoco Hood, Clear Turn Signals, Lowered, Aftermarket SS Spoiler, Exhaust, De-Badged and De-Moulded, Painted Calipers, etc...

Front has definitely been repainted (you can see fender is different shade than door, at least in the pics) and the fender line is slightly off (which makes me wonder if it was painted because it was replaced as opposed to painted to be blended with the hood).

Regardless, GREAT looking car! I think side stripes AND hockey would look great...





but if you have to choose I say just the hood stripes...
