Default Some updated pics of my ride.

Just thought I'd put up a few new pics of the Rhino.Got a new hood awhile ago and changed a couple of little things.

The Trailblazer is my wifes ride.The only complaint would be there's not a huge performance aftermarket for it.She doesnt like it when i touch it,but i talked her into the 20's and lowering it!I just cant leave nothing alone!

Nice looking car overall. Can't say I'm feeling the yellow grill inserts on white paint or the tan speaker box on grey interior though. What wheels are those?

My interior is tan not grey,its hard to tell in the pics.When you're looking at it in person the color is not to far off.

The rears are 17x11 with 315/35's.
The yellow is hit or miss with most people.Everyone has red or blue!My wife wanted me to repaint the car yellow,but the baffles are as close to yellow as its going to get.They were a different color yellow(more brighter)but i didnt like it.Eventually im going to get the polished metal ones.
I plan to change the color of the car,but I'll wait to say what color till It's done.I'm sure It'll be a hit or miss as well for the color.I'm going back a few decades for it.Even some of my friends are unsure how It'll look.

I was going to say it would look much better with some chrome or high polish grills. I think it would look much better and match your rims nicely. Yellow grills just don't look right.

I've never seen the white/yellow look before. It's definetely unique. Great stance as well. Just to put it into your head and get you obsessing about it, have you considered painting the door locks and antenna white?

I was looking at your pictures again, and I think your car has a very clean look. I think some of dragonz28's polished grill inserts to replace the yellow ones that you have now, along with clear front and rear side markers would finish of the exterior nicely. Nice ride!
