Default Some pics of the bird.
Hey what's up guys? It's been awhile since I posted pics of my car. Since then it's got new shoes and a 6LE splitter. Let me know what you think. On a side note, I have not being able to use a plate cover...

Looks damn clean man. Have you gotten a ticket for covering the front plate before? Most places don't even notice.

Car looks good. The splitter was a nice choice as well.

Like the wheels and the splitter

Have you considered doing the Trans am door emblems in silver? It'd break up all the black well IMO...

I didn't get a ticket, but was told to remove the cover a few times. I gave up after that. I had a clear plate cover. I painted it. Just didn't look right clear IMO.

I'm on the fence about silver door emblems. On lighter cars black looks good, but on black cars sometimes I think silver stick out too much.

There is more pics in the link in my sig.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Agreed, what I did with my Formula badges was paint them silver, and did a black "overlay" decal on the lettering.

Here's some old pics of my car:

Agreed! Don't do it man, your car looks 10 times cleaner w/o the silver. I would even consider taking off the silver ram-air decals on your hood. Love the wheels btw, badass looking car!
