Nice going Spuds!

Have you considered adding some polished '96-'00 WS6 rims? They would look so much better than the 16 inchers.

I was going to go with some Black Zr-1's * in the 17/9 and 17/11 flavor * with a polished lip, but the money for that went out the window when I ran over a sunken fire pit in my dads bagged 2500 truck I also think polished ones would look bombdigity, but I may just polish these for now


THANKS For the props men, I love the new look, I smile everytime I look at it

What did you borrow some material from a friend or form a workplace?

I like how you did it in your garage and not have had to take it off and give it to someone to do.

Looks good, you should VHT the tails and corners now. It will tie in with your black top, black ceta, and black door handles.

Tips do hang a bit low, don't know how to fix that, I only have 80 bucks invested into my borla cat back atm, so Im happy with the sounds/looks for 80 bucks lol.

I want to do that or do clear corners and then take the red out of my tails and just go with red bulbs, tieing all the lights together being clear.




Wait till we wetsand and buff the whole car Should have crazy depth, we have 4 coats base, and 4 coats of clear on almost the whole car now.

As far as big items, a WS6 hood is up on the list next, either that or the rims, idk what first. Im gonna paint the scoop on the ws6 hood black and the rest white, should look bombdigity lol Any suggestions feel free to shoot them to me. Do you think I should paint the door handle/lock white?
