Need Feedback on this 98TA I am working on! My brother in Law just bought this car from my wife and wanted to redo the look of the car to reflect his personality. This is what we came up with and I need some response as to what y'all think of her so far.
The wheels are 17X9.5 WS6 wheels that are anodized blue, slotted and cross drilled rotors on front and rear with Hawk Pads. The rear filler panel is also done in the anodized blue along with all lettering of the car. She also has a FMS F14 cam, LS6 intake, Long tube Pacesetters, 3inch Xpipe exhaust with Spintech Mufflers, no cats. Last dyno session and tuning was 397RWHP. The heads are stock except for upgraded valve springs.

Performance wise 
Not digging the bright blue wheels, or the rest of the blue accents, seems a bit too bright, reminds me of the old Chrysler Petty Blue (maybe it's just really bright in the picture)
IMO a darker shade of blue would look better, that's my thoughts

not trying to bash your exterior but damn that blue has got to go...word of advice, paint the rear valance black/charcoal and ditch the wheels (or paint over them), I would have to HONESTLY say its more RICE than NICE.........just my HONEST opinion

The blue is actually the color used on the 30th anniversary TA. The pictures, especially the one of the rear 3/4 turned out really bad where the blue looks like it is a baby blue instead of that deep anodized blue. I may strip the wheels again and try the magnesium color or the anodized gold that Pontaic and Mecham used. I will try to get some better shots of the car for a last ditch effort. Thanks to all who replied.
