Default Recent pics of my car, 2001 SS

I spent a few days using Meguiars products to get rid of the swirl marks, I used #83 abrasive/polish three times over the entire vehicle, then #80 polisher three times as well with a LOT of elbow grease, finally 2 coats of NXT...

Check out mah baby, The Black!!!





Can jo0 guys see the dings on the left quarter panel done by me applying too much pressure

Everything looks INCREDIBLE! (minus the quad CME, and the flared CME valance, I like the SLP one better myself, but thats just me). Good job!

Thanks gents!

I did want SLP's original CME, at the time they wouldn't sell it to me because my VIN# didn't have it originally, so then I got what you see here thru SLP, and THEN in 2005 they decided to sell the CME to anybody

That's cool, I'mma gonna work with this one, I have another dual quad tip in the garage, I might get it chromed, or possibly get some muffler shop to make me a custom set of tips sort of like the C5 Magnaflows and make it work...

It's a thought...

1 of the thing I dont like about the quad cme is that the rear skirt just looks out of place like you would need some matching side skirts it just looks out of place tho. I love your car other then that it looks sick..how clean is under the hood?
