and here's just some other random pics i took of the car today




what do you guys think? this is my first time doing any detailing besides just washing a car, i think it turned out ok for the first time. next mod im doing is my custom FRC's and painting my whisper lid. i also gotta clean the engine bay alittle more, but, i think it looks alright for the half *** job i did to it. my car is also going to TTP this weekend for them to install a LS6 intake and retune the car.

everything looks good, but the engine bay needs a lot more work IMO

Nice job! I'm looking forward to doing the same thing to my car this weekend.

stokedporcupine

yeah, i know. i just kinda half assed it one afternoon last week with the gunk foamy engine bright stuff, and i drove down the the beach this weekend, so, doesnt look quite as good as before anyway. once i get the car back from ttp and get my FRC's i deffinitly plan to put some time into the engine bay.

I like the gmmg tips but I would do something to try and tuck them in. Overall I think it looks nice

stokedporcupine

not sure, it was painted before i bought it. i can find out though.

yeah, the whole exaust hang alittle more then i'd like, but, its not too bad and i've been alittle scared to mess with it.

thanks for all the comments guys!

Very nice. I have been debating whether to put the Pontiac fill ins in the rear. Seeing your car is really pushing me to do it.
