Car looks real nice as is. Maybe do the wire mod to clean up your engine bay a bit.

looks good, don't get me wrong, but I think painting the rear panel black and keeping all the emblems you had on it would have looked better.

btw - quilts aren't knitted.

whats the dot above the 3rd brake light? I thought it might just be the lighting in the photo, but its in 2 different shots taken in different places.

Looks real good. Maybe underneath the hood, get rid of the stickers on their from the factory that show the evap, pcv and all of that. Other than that it looks real good.

Thanks to everyone that posted up w/ remarks. I was in Vegas for a couple of days and just got back to the house tonight.

shiv15-I am trying to get my fquick page updated, not enough hours in the day so it continues to get bumped back on the priority list. Thanks for the comments though.

pjb-Thanks for setting me straight about quilts being sewn and not knitted, hahaha. As far as the rear panel, it just looks so plain with the pewter back there. The satin black just makes it look better IMHO. I still have the stocker so I can switch back and forth if/when I get tired of the black panel. Also the dot is where som clown painted it with a circle sticker on it. The sticker fell off and I haven't hit it with touch up yet.

dopefed and WS6FTW-I am planning on removing the decals and possiby doing the hidden wire mod. Decals are easy but I am slightly apprehensive about drilling the hole for the wire mod but I will man up and do it soon I'm sure.

I'm getting BMR rear springs sometime this week hopefully as well as a couple of the Hillco chrome bolt kits. I'll post up some more pics in this thread hopefully by next weekend of the completed look.

Thanks again everyone.

I would lose the windshield banner and the side moldings, but still very nice nonetheless

I need to post up some recent pics, a lot has changed since these pics were taken. As far as the molding, I tried taking it off and it looks like at some point they were super glued on the car. When I take it in to the bodyshop next time I am getting the molding taken off and the area sanded and repainted. Thanks for the props everyone. I'll get some newer pics up soon.

I'd ditch the stickers. I don't like to hint at what's inside my ride. Let the people who see it wonder.

Lookin good, definitely some inspiration for mine. I agree about the engine bay, if you want to gain a few more points then just clean, paint, and polish as much as you can. None the less thats a great looking ride.
