my first lsx car i just purchased my trans-am for $6500 financed, thanks to nemeSS helping me out.
carfax was really clean and eveything seems to be in great working order.
the bads are: needs driver window motor, and even tho the headlight works it makes a noise wen closed for like four long seconds, like the gears are grindin or something.
any suggestions on wheels? or suggestions on anything?

Get something like those HP EVOs ^^ ... on white those would look clean.
Personally tho, I would fix all the nagging little things first. Those will grind on you far more than wheels.

Looks awesome, I'd get the front plate filler for sure, that would look real good, take off the dealer sticker and probably do the CETA mod, white+black combos are sexy as hell IMO.
Looks like a sweet car!

Looks good, I'd fix that seat belt guide, that's pretty annoying when the seat belt is riding up on your neck when your trying to drive. I have had great luck with e-bay for parts like you want (Filler Panel), you have some pretty good F-car specific yards on there that are priced fair and have really clean stuff. Looks like your radio is from a Camaro. You can guy brass head light gears from just about any where, common issue.

Nice looking ride. I recommend buying the window motor off amazon. Vatozone sells the same thing, but it's a heck of a lot cheaper to buy it off amazon. Good luck.
As for the headlight gear, just rotate it 180 degrees and you're set.
For the front license plate cover... go afterthoughtsauto.

im all for wagons, but they dont look right on t/a imo

^That black part of the rear bumper is what there talking about. Looks great with Corsa/Corsa Clone tips. It's called the CETA mod because it came stock on Collector Edition Trans Am's(CETA)
