Welcome to the site, that pic isn't too bad for a phone.

BTW, NBM is the best color, don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

I just picked up a '98 NBM Formula with a suncoast hood about a month and a half ago. It's awesome. I live about 50 miles north of grand rapids. Have fun with your car, I know I am. Got 4.10's in the hatch waiting to be installed They also look kick *** under sodium lights

Nice Formula by the way. I've had my Z28 three years now and just started with a few little mods. Just installed some Torque Thrust II's, new exhaust coming next month, then we'll see whats next. I don't want to get too crazy as this is my daily driver and you really can't have all that much fun in Atlanta traffic.

I like it a lot. A little too hot for a little too long in the summer, and believe it or not I do miss the snow. But Atlanta is a lot of fun. I'm escaping the heat for a road trip up to Michigan in about three weeks.

It's been pretty hot up here lately. All last week it was in the upper 80's-90's
