Yesterday I added the most important appearance mod to a car, WHEELS!!! I would really love to do a set of killer 18's on the car but the main focus of my trans am is to drag race. I got a good deal on some used F-body specific 15x10 street lites and I decided to go with a 17x7 up front.
Yes I know, the front needs to be lowered. Some BMR springs should be arriving any day now! Once I get the front springs on I'm going to have some professional pics taken of the car. But here are some driveway shots for now.

I dig the overall car man. I'm glad someone went with a color other than black, or silver, or red to accent the white.
Only thing that gets me is the paint over the factory stainless steel exhaust. I would've polished it up for a bling effect. But none the less props for atleast cleaning it up.

I'm not that crazy about detailing to polish the factory exhaust! I don't think it's a 100% stainless anyway or it wouldn't have had surface rust on it.

The more I look at it the more I don't like the CETA mod, it just makes the back of the car look too dark and seems to take away from the cool curves of the trans am rear bumper.

Thanks man!
Thanks! I bought an adaptor from speed INC to fit the guage. I havent deleated the abs yet so I cant answer that question.
Nice bird! I live in Farmington would love to see this beauty sometime! Hit me up if your ever up this way. Had any issues with the window tint being too dark? My side ones have a blueish purple tint to them right now as well, my back is already 5% tho

Thanks! A few of us go to Farmington every once in a while to catch some street action. I've been told once it was too dark by a city cop, but been lucky for the 4 1/2 years I've had the car.
