i guess its just all personal preference.

I posted to your thread .... sorry to hear about your mishap.

Yea, I would like to get a group of f-bodies together and maybe hit the Cartersville car show. I know they used to have them in Canton and Kennesaw (Hooters) too .... or maybe one of them. I know of an LT1 Firebird up here on LS1Tech and have seen a nice burgandy WS6 with TTII's running around up here as well.

I like the lowered stance, but for me it won't work. I can run 26" slicks in the 1/8-mile and get away with it lowered, but I need 28's for the 1/4-mile. I would prefer not to butcher the fenders/fender wells any more than I have to. I also have very, very little clearance on my torque arm mount. Already I have to stay away from anywhere that has speed bumps.

These were very simple and reasonably inexpensive changes (as compared to my S60 install) that I think make the car standout. Thanks for compliment!

Thanks ... actually my "Berger" panel is a tail light panel off a black SS. I thought that was the most budget way to go. It may not be authentic, but it was sure easier and I like the gloss better. I sold the red SS emblem on Ebay and bought and installed the black/silver trimmed SS in its place. I am saving my mint Pewter panel for a possible de-mod when i am finished with this car.
