Looks good Paul! I like it without the stripes, now just get that bumper painted, or throw your stocker back on.
I saw the cage at your last party, did you bolt it in?

the cage was about 525, bolt in. i am still in the process of installing it. I should be finishing it up next weekend when im back in jersey.
Alex, the rear bumper will be getting painted soon, along with a hatch, hood, front grille, and blower plenum...
then mid july, i should be getting around to that dam exhaust and i'll finally be able to lower the rear of the car back down.

hehe, they are getting swapped out. The grille is going to be Pewter as well. With the SKY around now, the SS is going more "drag-based". The stereo is getting downsized as well to 1 sub and one amp, no more dvd player or x box.

I think he means why do you still have the rear seat in there when you have the bar now? It's not safe for anyone to sit there.....

that weight is miniscule(sp?) other stuff has already been taken into account plus with pending hp levels... 20lbs aint nothing for a car thats not raced competitively. The car is dropping almost 500lbs this month anyway. my issue is traction and will be for some time.
