Looks good.
Speaking of looks, here's a page just for you Marcel: Cleaned & polished Trans Am.
Now doesn't the grey look better now that's clean & shiny than it did when the car was dirty & dull looking at Don's?

Say yes.

Butch, I don't like the grey. It reminds me of a two tone car from the 90's but your from a different era. If that's the style you like then whatever, just dont go buying LED's and no more painting ok??

Thanks for the compliments guys...Don you really think that tuning it with nothing other than the CAI and the cat-back will be worth it? I figured other things little bolt-ons such as a pulley and boring the TB should be done, before going for the tune. But you are THE MAN....if there's one thing I have learned in my short time here ait's that your word is golden! Once again thanks for the props guys!

I had a few bolt-ons before my tune, it was THE BEST seat-of-the-pants mod I have to this date! No Joke!
