yeah i was thinking that but i dont have the money to blow on another 2 17's for the rear. but i do plan on that one day i still like how they look personally. your car is sick tho merv

Edit: i was also thinking about painting the wheel this spring/summer. maybe white to match the paint but idk yet. black seems alittle to played out even tho theyd look good...

I got an SS spoiler too! and i just washed both the cars yesterday, so it'll give ya a good side by side comparison. btw, you'll need a resistor for the new spoiler because the LED's in the SS spoiler don't provide enough resistance, and it'll cause the ABS INOP light to come on, no other issues though

Thanks, the red 94 is in pretty desperate need of some paint, and we just picked up the 96 a couple weeks ago. I dunno what resistor because we haven't put one in yet. Spoiler has only been on there a few days, and so far i'm lovin' it

Right now I'm in the process of swapping out the dark leather interior of the 96 into mine, then hopefully this summer I can get a little body work done, I'd really like a big-block or stinger hood (heard it called either), and get it repainted, with some nice black stripes. Then save up for the go-fast goodies Slowly but surely gettin my car how i want it and hopefully someday it'll be as clean as some of the cars on here lol.

It's not ontop of my to-do list right now, but I'll let you know if i find out what size resistor ya need

How is putting a LS1 SS spoiler on a Z28 a LT1 specific question? Because of a different set of taillights? (with the exception of '97's)

Cause that's how he wanted to ask it, and felt he would get his answer here.

I said a majority of the LT1 specific questions are going to get answered in here cause this is where we all hang out.

IMO with the time it took you to make a nit-picky post about where he "should" of asked his question, you could have posted a pic of your car for the guy instead of sayin that you had one..that would have been something a little more positive.

Now how bout we get back to the thread that is going decently well and stop being picky about the little things..

I was wondering if anyone would catch that lol. I didn't replace the badge, but I suspect that the car has been painted before, and someone did a poor job considering how all the clear coat is coming off.. and they put the rear badges on backwards. the bowtie came off pretty long ago and i never tried to put it back on.
