Default New Project Pics?? Ideas

Well the SS is pretty much complete (appearance wise). I just got this truck to mod. Appearance ideas please. I know there is A SyTy board, but I would like this forums opinions. My ideas are 2 in drop, tint, black ZR1's, and red emblems.

thanks

Damn that' s nice, I' d love to have one! It sounds like you' ve already got some great ideas for it, I' d add dark tint (provided it doesn' t make the back side windows look chrome-like), and possibly a cowl induction hood depending on how open to modifying the body you are. A Borla exhaust would look nice on it too, seen it on a few Sy's. That' s how I would set it up if I had one. Just be sure to post pics when the changes start coming together!

Personally what you have sounds good

typhoons are fast little trucks, so I'd cut the rear shell off and turn it into a pickup, but thats me.

thats a good 200+ pounds you could lose.

But if your just going for looks, springs, wheels, grill, tint, and no badges, keep it slick

Ouch! Too a limited production vehicle?! That' s almost as bad as putting a V8 in a Sy/Ty or Grand National!

Lucky for you there is a pretty good aftermarket for the S10 platforum of that year. www.stylinconcepts.com has a huge list of appearance mods for trucks.
