nice, ur antena looks like a limp.......well u know

the use of z28 and SS emblems on ur car ruins it though. esp since ur cars a z28, so i say stick with those and loose the front ss emblem

and change to 70s style z28 badges, that would look badass

ya im not goining for.... lose the SS emblem for SURE. i don't even like the SS hood on any Z/28. Z's need to have a sunoco or some other. fix the limp antenna. maybe the only thing me gusta is those round headlights, but i cant even get a taste of that due to the angles, sorry for bashing but the ride for sure is clean looking

I plan to cut the front bumper out for a front mount intercooler set-up in the near future. So that ss emblem and grille will be off the car. - Thanks - Mike

Thanks buddy. Heres the website I bought the hellas from
http://www.rallylights.com/hella/90mm_modules.asp
They will run just over 200.00 for everything that you need. I recommend this headlight upgrade. A huge huge difference at night compared to the stock headlights. Theres another website that will show you on how to install these headlights step by step. Hardest part that I faced was bolting the headlight in place and adjusting them. Other then that the installation was pretty easy. If you have anymore questions about these headlights just send me either a email or pm. Thanks - Mike

I think your car is having an identity crisis. You've confused it with the emblems on there.

In my opinion, an SS hood on a Z is fine, just as long as you aren't claiming it's an SS through use of badges or telling people that it is. But the front emblem has to go.

What did you use around the new headlights to fill in the rest of the rectangle that the previous lights sat in?

I did not use anything. But I do plan to fabricate a cover to fill in the space. just really never had the time to do it. That ss emblem defently will be coming off. I'm thinking one of those older z28 emblems near the side of the grille.

One more vote for losing the SS emblem. Otherwise, I LOVE the headlights! Those make the car look mean! Very clean ride!!
