First upgrade to my new 96 Trans Am

I bought my Trans Am about 2 weeks ago ( I had a Camaro with a 3.4l) and here is to my first of many suspension mods.

I bought a strut mount bar from a fellow board member and after it arrived I stripped it down and painted it. Just something small, as its the first mod to a virgin 96 LT1.

Here it is when I first received it:

Took a good 2 hours to get it down to the bare metal. I used a good old hand grinder with a wire brush end.

5 coats of primer and 4 coats of black satan paint later:

I know its a small mod, but I have to start somewhere!

Next is 3 point SFCs. PM me if you have a set your willing to part with
