here's some thoughts....
 
im heading to texas in april, then off to iraq. my car got keyed here not long ago and now its getting new paint (and it didnt need it). so anyways jokes on them, full coverage insurance, and my girlfrieds dad's a body man, so he's repainting my car. hes pulling all the panels apart and painting them seprately, doing it all right.

but anyways beings my cars going to be torn apart an painted i had a few ideas on little things to do with it.

list:
fill "pontiac" in rear bumper (has a crack in it so it needs fixed anyways
get rid of the "trans am" inbetween tail lights.
get rid of "pontiac" on headlight
get rid of "bird" on licence plate cover.
leave off emblems "ram air" and "trans am"
shave antenna, maybe door locks


its an original WS6 car and i was thinking of a clean look, everyone knows its a ram air trans am, i dont need to advertise it. leave the WS6 emblem on the rear and on the wheels. thats it.

he also said he could graft CME from a SS camaro in the bumper, im considering this too. how many TA's have you seen with the sleek CME?

just some thoughts guys tell me what you think...

no opinions on custom body work?

Idk if I would like the CME. On a side note, lately iv wondered about flattening the gas door to smooth out the body lines and using something like those magnetic clicking poppers like on cabinet doors to pop the door out when it's filling time.

thats a pretty cool idea too! yeah im thinking of doing it. going for a sleeker look. kinda like a 55 chevy with no chrome or emblems

If you flatten the gas door I def. want to see it. I don't think iv seen it before n think it would look a LOT cleaner without making big changes.
