Default My Car (pics)

Just wanted to post a few pics of my car, if I can figure out how to. My mods are in my sig. It looks pretty much stock appearance wise, besides the ride hight and some MINOR interior work I have done. Actually, its just painting the Trim stuff black. My wife got me the Floor Mats as a gift and I thought they gave a good contrast to the interior. Please feel free to give opinions, and what I can do next. I am kinda on an Appearance kick, till I get the GMR Speed TT kit. Oh and the sweet ride in the background of the last pics is my sweet DD. That thing has been on that same tank of gas for 1 month and 6 days. It may take a mile to get to 45, but it works and I love it. Thanks for any input.

NO its all rattlecan. Duplicolor DSGM001 Black and Duplicolor Top Clear Coat. I just followed Parbreaks post in Hall Of Fame Sticky. Gotta love it when they come out nice. He really knows what hes talking about. I left some texture to the doors cause I wanted it to flow with the rest of the door. Thanks for the feedback.

I like it, I'm kind of partial to the black f-bods. Did you do the tan interior or is that factory?

Looks like you need to re-finish the upper portion of the driver side door panel

i'm not really feeling the painted interior, in my opinion, and thats just my opinion, it looks cheap...the mats are not blending in with the rest of the car, but the outside of the car looks badass man. but then again it it 5 in d morning, i'm at work, and i've been up since 7 yesterday! i hate my job!!!! sorry...neways nice car man!

Thanks for the responses. I love the opinions.

02BSOGOOD. That is the factory interior.
camarossman88, Yeah, they are off, but thats what I liked about them. Throws a bit of a monkey wrench into the flow of things.
Brian2006. I see that too, but when I go look at it in peron, it doesnt look like that. WIERD. Bad camera angle.
osvaldo, I appreciate the opinion. I actually think that the stock platic interior looks cheaper than a pimed, painted and cleared one. Was just trying to offset some things. But hey, I like it.

Thanks again guys, keep them coming.
