Thanks everyone! I will silicone the signals and headlights. Wheels are 15x3.5s and 15x10s. I'm hoping to get everything done once I get off work Saturday as there's a car show I'm wanting to go to Sunday.

Looking sharp! You are brave to paint the calipers white though!

Can't wait to see pictures of everything together.

Thanks again!!! The calipers were painted white for couple years now and they held up fine(rattle can). I washed them everytime I washed the car as to not let brake dust or anything build up on them. I even waxed them before installing for a little extra protection but they just didn't have that shine and cleanliness I wanted to match rest of car so I just had them powder-coated and wow what a difference! Talk about shine!

NICE!!! I got those same turn signal lamps, but since they have black housings they dont reflect light from the bulbs very well at all, so I just hacked them up and converted them to LED turns and DRLs. Very clean additions you have there!

^^Do you mean they don't automatically come on all the time? I did that mod a while ago, it's the only way to go IMO. I love cruising with just the fogs and LED strips engaged
Post some pics when everything is installed.. It's going to look sick!

They don't come on at all automatically. If I want to use the parking lights and/or fog lights, I do it manually. This keeps bulbs and sockets from burning out as quick with regular bulbs. I hate DRLs so I just unplugged them from behind the radio.

I am too a fan of your car. I live on the East Coast near South Carolina. I plan to be at the F-Body Beach Bash at Myrtle Beach this year. Check out the events forum for more info. They have different track events(drag, cones, etc), cruises, meets, show. Lots of fun.

And wannarunme messaged me on here when they first came out as the topic was brought up in another thread and I bought from him. Great person to deal with.
