Thats actually why I started posting on this board. I'm looking at the ZO6 front brake conversion. I'm going to have the calipers painted metallic blue by my body shop. UMI suspension wasn't sure if they would fit my wheels so I'm trying to hunt someone down with the conversion kit up front.

As far as the hood is concerned you either like it or you don't. It really doe's flow with the car. The ones that don't are the Predator hoods. She is 10 years old and zaino and lots of elbow grease really makes this 120,xxx mile car shine.

As far as upgrades are concerned I'm looking for something that will maintain great gas mileage, reliablilty, and run mid to low 12's. I'm currently looking into the PTK front mount turbo system, and the procharger kit. Will see what happens. Check out the cardomain for more pics, the interior is just as clean as the outside.

Thanks for speaking your mind guys. I've put alot of work into this car, thats why I don't think I can let her go that easily for an LS1. Its diffrent and turns alot of heads.

The front doe's have a bit more of a point to it but I think it kinda gives her a bullet look. When lowered I think it will accent this look a little better. The only paint thats not original is the hood and front bumper. I had the holes filled from the front liecense plate, and removed the bird.
