You'll become a big fan of Pewter when it comes times to wash her. Much easier to keep looking clean than say Black.

If someone's footin the bill Ive got major plans out the yin-yang lol.

But Ive got some plans for 'er. I eventually want black FM5s, black ZL-1 stripe, Whistler headlights, LTs, TDs, black SLP SS grille, CAMARO fill ins, smoked corners, more of a "handling suspension" than a drag-only, and some other boltons.

As much as I'd love to have a 500, 600, 700+hp car I have no need for that around these parts. So Im just gonna make it handle, and look like I want and have @ least 400/400 @ the wheels and be complacent...well, least thats what I'll tell the wallet

I think its internal more than external. Im gonna try and find some type of plastic or lexan cleaner and see if that works. I wanna do the Whistler mod w/ HIDs but I guess if I screw this up, Im just gonna get Halo's lol.

And Mad, Im glad Im apart of the real LS1tech brotherhood now lol. I was just a poser before.

Now I need to hitup Tony and see if I cant get a pewter sticker lol.

Nice ride! Kinda needs the headlights cleaned up though, then it would look even cleaner. I'd be interested in taking those wheels off your hands when you do decide to buy the new ones.
