Question opinions please....

Iam at a loss on what to do to next appearence wise on my car....
let me know what you think about adding: tint, black stripes, window banner, those fender stripes, an ss hood,5'' spoiler (from hawks); ( i wont put all on, thats way too much for me ) or voice your opinions on what else i can/cant do that would or wouldnt look good on my car. as for rims black zr1's with machined lip are comming also thought about doing a mesh grill.

here are some pics,


ground effects dont hang like that anymore^^lol

i think the addition of the new wheels will make the car look much different, i dont know if i would change much else. Maybe change out the hood louvers for the 91-92 blisters, painted body color

you could pull off the side moldings, a nice free mod. The car looks good, just wheels and a different hood alone would really change the look of it.

Honestly? Get rid of that antenna.

The car looks great.

I think you should go for the spoiler from hawks and do a cowl hood or similar style hood.

could retrofit HID lights...ive thought about doing that to mine, of course to do that ud have to buy the diamond clear headlight housings first (that alone is a nice upgrade to do to 3rd gens)... a cowl hood and some wheels would be cool..

on a side note, i love the diamond clear parking lamps! just got mine on my iroc today and man, what a difference it makes over those 20+ year old stained pieces of crap that sat in there! really cleans up the whole front appearence...
