wow! congrats on the clean show car! Its always nice to see a nicely done 3rd gen show car. Very nice work!

i like how you kept the door moldings and the top of the bumpers black. Not something most people would do and i like it.

do you have any plans on motor upgrades?? You should think about at least an EFI swap or a nice polished turbo under there.

Nice clean car man...... I dig the tails, alot of people say it looks to "vette-ish, it does, but it looks really nice. Great job.

Nice clean custom work...I see a lot of people trying to fabricate lights like that and they end up looking like crap, but those are real smooth....Congrats on your super retro 3g

btw..Is that a fog maching in your trunk and a disco ball under the hood?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

thanx guys, yeah, it was the car given to me, and i just got into hookin up cars and i went from there, and we all no barely any aftermarket stuff is made for our car so its mostly custom...I had a hell of a time finding any decals for my doors because i went down my modification list and everything was custom haha.....anyways, about the fog machine in the trunk, actually its just polyfil, the stuff in pillows, haha, but it was about 3 in the morning before a show one night and a friend and i decided our trunks looked like shit so i went down to walmart and bought 4 bags of it and threw it in there and tossed about 10 strobes and 5 neons and a 36" led bar under it and it actually looks pretty cool for a last minute idea.........and yes, there was a disco ball under my hood, but hey, u get points for your display... :)

so did you make the lights yourself? or did you get a shop to do it? I really want to know how.

Car looks nice, I like the tails. Jus wonder how the turn signal looks from the back when flashing.

Most people just list the mods in their signature: User CP > Edit Signature

hey, about the tail lights, i just went to my advance auto parts and got 4 of the led truck tails...got some spare stock tails from the junkyard and cut out the whole, mounted em in there, then used body filler to make it smooth and after a lot of sanding u can make em look pretty good, its just kinda temporary for now, im gonna mold the whole taillight assembly to the car before i get it painted
