Default [PICS] The new car! [PICS]

As most of you know, I hydroplaned in the Camaro about a month ago and ran into a wall. The insurance company totalled the car. Everyone has been wanting to see good pics, so here's the new car: it's a 2000 Trans Am, 6-spd, with just 57,000 miles. The only mods are Sportlines, a lid, FTRA, a shifter, and LCA's. Without further ado, he she is!

Nah, I didnt. They've been chrome for a while. They appear to be pitting like chrome does. The ZR1's on the Camaro did it too.

Chrome twisties dont look bad! Def. aftermarket job though. I like the stance, looks about the same as mine, although I have the prokit and wish it was higher, the b&m pan and the ORY scrape on everything. Good luck with her though!
