Pics of the ride yo...haha

I just got done cleaning up the car a little bit. It was getting dark so these pictures are before I did the wheels. I used that turtle wax ice polish and was pretty impressed. Next step will be clear up that nasty headlight...

Please don't talk like that. But nice car you got there. I personally am not a fan of your stripes just because I don't like rally stripes on a Z28. The lines don't have anything to flow with like a hood scoop on an SS. Get some wheels, drop, and tint and a couple other things and you're good to go

Looks good man. Personally I think that's what the rally stripes are for, to break up the desolation of a hood without a scoot or many lines on it.

Nice ride! There is a guy on firehawk.org that posted that he used this stuff on his vehicles, Angus is his name. This is the stuff.

Yeah man I am saving up for some C5 Z06's right now, even though they're all over the place I still like them. Yeah the car came with the loudmouth exhaust and those tips but I'd like to redo the whole setup sometime soon with some lt headers and a tsp x pipe, not so sure on what else but I've got to get cash first lol.

Ehh, see I feel the opposite way. I just don't really like the looks of the stripes that wrap all the way around and ordered these specifically not to. Oh well though, just personal preferences.
