only advice i would give is raise it up about an 1" or so and put some 1/2" wheel spacers on it, would look even sicker.

Talking Conversion Kit

Where can i get a Conversion kit for the 1996 trans am? I want to make it a 98 and up body? I am assuming i would have to replace the hood, front fender and side fenders, and the lights? Can someone please direct me, i have been searching online but i guess not the right places. And does everything fit perfectly, without problems? Thanks for all the help!

ragtop_rat can you take a few pictures of your suspension, specifically the front air struts and how you ran the lines back to a tank. I've ran into a little stumbling block with routing mine.
