I checked out your cardomain page, and the slick silver looks superb; kudos. However, if you put $1000 worth of stereo in that beast before changing those hideous wheels, I refuse to ever read another post from you again!

It looks awesome!! It'll look even better when you match up your trim pieces. The mix of LX (silver trim) and TC (red trim) doesn't add to the overall look. That shouldn't be too bad to do, not compared to all the sanding you've already done. Nice job!!

looks very nice man. You definatly need to get some wheel. Buy some snowflakes like on reg. tc's. You can find them cheap sometimes and even LOCAL. Maybe I'll see you on 96 one day. I drive from Dearborn to Howell just about every weekend.
