ok so this is my car. It is not daily driven and is pretty much stock besides vortec heads and magnaflow tips. What would you do? I'm 16 and this is going to be a weekend car. its just to low to drive everyday So I drive a 80 C10 with a 355 headers shiftkit true duals etc . I want it to be fast and loud but I want it to be reliable too.

I like the SS style hoods on these models, you could always try a different spoiler, something smaller, not so tall, or whatever floats your boat. I'd do rims and tint, thats my normal pattern anyway, You should look into some ZR1s for that, There was a guy on here just sold a set of c6 vette wheels for $500!!!!

you could take the molding off the side of the doors and that might make it look a lil cleaner, make it easier when waxing!!!

wow thats cheap. I do really like the ss hood and the big block or stingray hood. It does need some wheels and tint. Its so nice though and the hood and spoiler are 91-92 z only items thats why I haven't changed them yet but im really want to. I guess I could just keep them and put them back on if I want to go back. so preformance wise what would you do?

i've taken some off and just buffed it afterwards and wasnt a big deal, but with ur car being a lil older that stuff could be on pretty good, might want to ask around about something to help get it off, i think it'd clean it up some, ask around, look at some of the other cars like urs and see if they have it on or have taken it off..

I think it would look much sweeter the other way though, black on the outside, read on the inside
