Default A little black makes a lot of difference
Just got some inserts on and decided to ***** pics out. Still working on the wheels though... Leaning towards B Coddingtons or TTII's, but everyone has them. I hate decisions.
Now


The day I bought it

Wow that color looks really good when taken care of, even better than the day you got it haha. New wheels will really make it pop, especially when shiny.

Thanks guys. Even though I tend to think it looks like 70% of all other pewter Trans Ams, its hard to go wrong with this scheme.

I got them from WS6store.com. Sponsor here with great service. I'd love CCW's but theyre just dont fit in the budget.

Get some chrome Y2K's. They are clean....but add the right amount of flare on a pewter car.

Car looks good though
