It might look good lowered and if the lip on the wheels were chrome.

IMO...it needs some contrast. It's too black. Look at ritz's car
above. The chrome lip on the wheels breaks up the black and give
it just enough contrast. The center caps detract from the look as well.
If that were my car and I was going to keep the same wheels, I'd do the
following easy mods:
- Lower it (asap )
- Chrome the lip on the wheels
- Paint / powdercoat the calipers red (w/ Trans Am sticker)
- clear corners
That will wake it up nicely. Again, my 2 cents only.

EDIT
Also i do want to paint the bird on the front in the plate cover. Was thinking maybe having the "PONTIAC" on the rear painted too

And nice ride BTW. Your would look pimp without the chrome lip too.
