C6 rims added on!

 

just need taillights now, car looks awesome

 

Congrats on the swap, looks good, I'd get the 98+ taillights and WS6 emblem as well.

 

That looks freakin sexy.

 

NOT...Do not, I say it again, do not put the WS6 emblem....go for a nice WS7 ot WS9 instead.

Looks very good.

 

to me it looks like he painted over the trans am emblem......anyone else see that? or is that a red emblem?

 

Like...

 

Good thing you post that....I contacted that guy for some work on a custom emblem for my Magnum....We talked about a few ideas and then I asked him for some kind of preview to get an idea of how it looked....still waiting. I wont loose any more time with the guy if he is not serious. If he thought I would pay up without having a preview Im so sorry. I will take business someplace else. Not worth it....

To the OP...get some dragonz28 stainless emblems. Check muffinbuster on Ebay. Now that is a really nice guy to deal with!!!

 

I agree, dragonz28 is very nice and does great work, I'd go with him.

 

Nice, you don't see many T/A's with the black sail panel

 

looks good, what are you doing with the old wheels

 

looks good! but id keep the zr1s over c5s

 

i think the rims you have no will look 10X better than the C6 rims... Car looks good tho.

 

Was that red originally?

 

Well the Zr1's have some nicks and i bought them for cheap, so i want some nice rims, and they are C6 rims, not C5. I should have them on monday, unless there is a wheel shop open tomorrow then i might do it tomorrow.

 

where did you get her painted at? was she originally red? any body work have to be done? and how much was it? how long did it take?

 

It ended up costing me 4k, yes the car was red prior, i did the ls1 front end conversion and he lined everything up, sprayed under the hood, sprayed the rear hatch on both the inside and out, painted all the little things like the ram air vents and fender vents, fixed a crack in the hood and some small dings on the rear quarterpanel. All in all was a little bit more than i was thinking to spend but it was well worth it. I have some things to finish up, i want to get some black outs for the rear and maybe some for the front also.

 

Looks good. Nicely done conversion

 

AH you should have painted the door handles red!!
Looks great though! Slap on some ls1 taillights and you are good to go.

 

why not?...its HIS car, let him do what he wants to...

personally, if i were to badge it a ws6, i would wait until i got the ls2 motor in it like his profile says hes goin to get, but thats just me.


people with original ws6/firehawk/ss cars really get bent out of shape when a "lowly" transam/z28 gets some ws6/firehawk/ss badging on it...



car looks great man!-I love the ls1 front end conversion, nice work!
