Got the hookup from tomz the otherday... I pre-ordered a set of black ttm's 17x9 &10.5 a few weeks ago. I got em in Monday. Just now getting around to posting up some pics. I'm somewhat new to this forum, but I hope you guys are at least a lil excited as I am to see the pics...lol
Before:
After:
Close up of Front:
Close up of Rear:
The car is kinda dirty so look over that. I live on a gravel road so its a bit hard to keep it clean. This sadly will be the last pics of the car with the hood. To make a long story short- somewhat large object + hood =
I found a replacement for it though. It's one of those ws6 looking ones. I am not a fan of them, but a buddy is going to let me borrow his since he now has an ss hood on his camaro. The hood is painted hot rod flat back so hopefully it wont be too bad. I just needed something to hold me off until later this year when i get the whole car repainted.
Well, that was my excitement/tragedy for the week.
Future plans:
SFC
Eibach Pro Kit
Sunoco or SS hood
Resprayed either black or SOM or

Yeah, I am leaning a lil more toward SOM. It's just there is another lt1 with the ls1 front in town painted that color, but his is either a hard or t-top. I still would be the only vert in the area that color. Stance is my next project.

Yeah, I will probaby go SOM I'm just wondering what it would look like with the black top plus then i have to decide whether to leave my mirrors black or paint em to match and whether to do the berger mod or not, but I have until this winter to decide. My headlight covers are rarely on they just happen to be on when i took this pic lol

I like the polo green. it's one of my favorite factory colors. Just alot of camaro's in the area are the same exact color. I think that I have seen two more convertibles in my area. One being polo green and one silver maybe. I can't remember. So I have the convertible card going for me. It's just whatever else i decided to do with it...lol

I got em from tomzwheels. They were about a lil over 1k with the sumi's and the black gorilla system. The tint is 5% all around. I'm trying to round up enough money to get some springs. I wil probably hold off on shocks for a bit because hell the car only has 61k miles on it. It had 50k when i bought it 4 years ago...lol
I think the wheels helped it out alot. I will probably just fix the stance, sfc's, maybe sway bar then paint it this winter. Then next year start on the go go mod's so far in that category all i have is 4.10 and a hurst shifter
