White's a good color to start working with; you can pretty much do any color scheme you want...go white/blue, white/red, white/green, white/gold, white/black...you get the idea. First, I would invest in a set of inserts for the rear bumper, then remove the molding on the doors and fenders, if you can

make sure you do tasteful appearemce mods. Carbon fiber decals over the sailpanels with the pontiac symbol, windshield banner, on E-bay you can find crossdrilled and slotted rotors and a set of brake pads for around 350 to 400 and thy make for a sexy supercar look. Cold air intake and headers are great for a daily driver that wants to sounf like a beast. I bought my hookers for 300 and the K&N intake for 300 or so.

I love the look of black and white together. With the ebony interior it looks awesome. I went with decals/fill-ins, blackbird stripes, and CETA mod. I didn't debadge or !sidemould because I like it saying Trans am on the side and maybe the trim will stop an open door or two.
You can even reverse the theme on the interior with white accents. I went with white gauge, shifter, light, and hvac overlays. The only thing I notice is that some people WAY overdo it. Tasteful is a matter of opinion but, get a strong idea of where you want to go first. Good luck.

thanks guys, for the help , i was leaning on white w/ blue or black striping. i have the black leather interior, i don't want to do a lot on the inside, just redo the interior lights with LED's and maybe some embrodery on the headrest and maybe a few other subtle changes . i have seen some great interior modifications in some of these cars here on this site, some are pretty wild, but thats just not what i want. right now i want to do is some mild outside appearence mods and maybe some performace mods . Please keep them pics coming, i really like what i see.

Sorry dude but "carbon fiber decals over the sail panel and a windsheild banner" arent tastefull.
IMO remove the side modling, and do the CETA mod, tint the windows, and be done with it.

I went white with silver accents. I wanted to stay subtle with the accents. Silver "Ram Air" on the hood, CETA filler, silver calipers with black brackets and black "Trans Am" caliper decals, crossdrilled and slotted rotors. Silver headrest embroidery and white FRA's with silver decals. I did have white dash overlay, but went back to original for now. I didn't care for the blue coming through at night. Going to get one with red coming through. Also removed the door moldings. Only other things might be polished battery, fuse box and PCM covers. But thats probably all for now.

Leave your paint alone. Nothing LOOKS better than a mono-tone white paint!!!!!!!!!!

Look at some wheels, or some other options.... but leave the paint alone!!!
