what size rims do you have there? I really need to get mine lowered.
It just looks damn good. Inspiring even. The camaro rotors look really nice too. Too bad I have drums on the back of mine.

also, would be neat if you could get a hold of someone's headlights where they painted the bezel black. It looks really good the way it is though.

Wishful thinking but doubtful it will become a reality. Tools, know-how, money and time. Just only got the damn headers attached properly lol

Yeah they are 17's Raceline 126 B (B is for black) They look smaller than my old 17's though. Maybe it's the poilished lip, but I have more sidewall with these than the others IDK
Not too crazy about the painted bezels. I tried red once, and I tried white. Think black is too dark

Ken the car looks great!!
And yes it is the polished lip, because the bullitt 17s I had on the aegean alero always looks super small too.
Now just get rid of the grill mesh and get some oil coolers, tranny coolers, and other cool shit to fill those holes instead!!!

Looks great Ken. Glad it arrived safe and sound. One small part of my car will live on. The rest is crushed flat by now. Lol.

That's really depressing. However I'm certainly enjoying the parts I got from you.
Personally I really think a bit of black on the headlight bezel and he mesh black would look awesome. Maybe a bit of tint on the tails but it's still looking sexy how it is. I'm guessing those of you with th cf hoods custom made them?... A new hood is very high on my list so iv been shopping around.
Xander- the conversion is very simple and you should be able to get everything you need from a junk yard for $100-$200 range. Pm me if you want details. And I can send links and pics if your interested.

Yeah I got it fine. I had to go to the junkyard and buy a prop rod. That $2 really broke the bank
Sorry I didn't get pics up sooner

Mmmhhhhhh I think I may have gotten a flat or two taking these pics. I came out to go to work and I had a flat tire and the other one is lower on the PSI. Not too low, but lower than I keep the tires at (28 v 35)
It's a paved road, with rocks in the parking on both sides. I have a second theroy, but I'm 99% sure it happened there.
If I have the energy when I get home from work, (I'll be awake for 26.5 hours straight at that point) I'll put the doughnut on. Not exactly the way I wanted to find out if the Impala 16 inch spare fits over the brake upgrade
