Default Pics of the Vert

Been meaning to get pics and see what you guys think of the changes I've made. So I cleaned it up yesterday and got ONE before my batteries went dead was planing on getting some more and showing a good one of the gauge and shifter overlay I got her for Xmas.

I'm waiting for the front spoiler to get done painting, and I need to lower it but I think for now the appearance outside is about done. I may get a chrome grill insert and I picked up the magnaflow from Matt last night (MEAN SOUNDING car BTW). Then I'm going to attach the interior I've been collecting graphite pieces and then will do the seats in graphite with lighter gray inserts....

Whatcha guys think? It got more looks then the WS6 believe it or not used to drive me crazy!!!

Bobby

Yeah when the tranny goes I'm going to have a hard decision whether to let you prove to me your magical auto skills or go with a 6speed Hopefully I won't have to make that choice for awhile!

Crazy but nobody has them and they don't look all that good by themselves, but on the car they look great! I got these for 400 shipped and had to have one wheel repaired for 75 like brand new. I really want some 18's like the chrome ADR's but I figure I can always get my money out of these wheels. They are in excellent shape. Between that and the 400 hood I got from Ryan you gotta love this board for deals!!!!!

Thumbs up

Lookin' good man. I wonder how the Z06 wheels would look on the Z28?

Speaking of Z06, when are you going to take a decent pic of the that?

Mike

Looks good. You think you would have waited to get a pic with some sun. j/k
At least you don't have those ugly wheels that you got from across the river on it.

I kinda plan on the porter cable with modenza polish and then Zaino on both cars. Getting the Borla on the Z06 and the Z28 lowered then doing a photo shoot and revamping my website completely Now if I actually DO that I don't know. I'll try and get some better pics of my Z up soon.

Speaking of Porter cable I think we should do your Car Mikey, it probably won't do alot for your hood because that is mostly chips but I've seem some AMAZING after pictures I bet we could clean up the rest of the car and really bring the shine out!!!

HA HA speaking of I need to get those back to you, they didn't look that bad, they stuck out a little too much but gave it a tough look, plus all the track on the rear made it look like it meant business

It does look really nice. Those wheels would get passed right up by me in a tire store, but they do work very well on that car
