Looking good. You should try NXT next time. I used to use gold class on my camaro, but NXT is way easier to use and is very reflective. I have gotten more comments about the shine with NXT than I did with gold class. You can check out my website for some pics... www.cardomain.com/id/sschmitz

Either way, keep up the good work.

I agree about the NXT. If you ever try it you'll never go back to Gold Class. Car looks great though.

haha, i'd love to mod it. but i think i'll just wait for mine. Although i do have a brand new 2.5" cutout sittin around. slap that thing on and a lid and she'll never know the difference. then when i take it out, cut out open and haul the mail. got some great looks cruisin around after Goodguys on saturday, had to lite 'em up for everyone. It's crazy when they're in town. hundreds of people just sittin in chairs along the road watchin everyone cruise and doin burnouts.
