So recently my car received a few exterior modifications. Installed some new eibach proline springs all around, the 6le center mount exhaust with the wide lip oval tips. As far as the spings. With the solid motor mounts and the chassis mounted torque arm this car already had a stiff and "racy" feel to it, the springs just amplified it a little more. May not be suggested for a more stock car feel. The tips I could not believe the sound difference. But for me it was for the better. Ill get some sound clips up soon when my buddy and I go out with his 600 rwhp cobra and the Camaro getting rolling shots and videos.

Only a few more things left to get it to my liking.

First off I have to install my new non bubbled sail panel "supplied by V"

I need to remove the headlights and do the "whistler mod"

Mold the valence into the rear bumper and least but not last upgrade these fugly stock brakes

The pre painted sail that is now currently done and in my basement

Thanks again Paul@CTW that liquid butter wax was awesome. Went on smooth and I cannot believe how easy it was to remove with no smearing with one light coat . Did not get a chance to try the mirror finish yet.

Your welcome!

You will drop a load in your shorts when you see how much shine the wet mirror finish adds to nice paint.

Thanks again guys !

The whistler from what I have read is the removal of the headlight lens and painting all the chrome black except for the back. Named after "whistler" or so I have heard on another forum.

This is it on my last car

Those are the depos, they black out more than the "traditional" whistler mod.

Immensely jealous of the ease of access with that tubular K-Member.

Car is coming together well. Can't wait to see the brake swap!
