ok just a Heads-Up but DO NOT get rid of that white interior. it's RARE as hell to find. If you can, restore the seats and resell or sell to somebody so THEY can restore them. They are VERY rare. I'd say take the white and have the seats redone to have the outsides black with WHITE insides or vice versa that would look SICK~Cole~

Almost! I tweaked it a bit today but it started to rain on me. I'll have it perfect buy Sunday.

We did the gloss black berger. It looks awesome I didn't get any pics of it because my car is smack up against the fence haha.

I still have my original seats and I will restore them eventually one day but it's not a priority right now. I just want to get the car looking right and kill a few squeeks and what-nots so I can start installing performance items.

YES! Get the seats fixed.


On a side note, it always amazing how or why someone would let a car get like that.

100k is barely broke in!! LS1's go for ever if taken care of
