alright well i'm 16, dad's a what i would call a retired mechanic? anyways, the black part around the fog lights has started chipping off, so i'm considering buying a grille, i saw someone with a mesh(??)grill, and i tought that looked cool,or i could totally scratch the idea of the grill, and get it repainted black when everything else gets painted

i'm also either going to get the orange stripe painted the same blue, or both stripes black maybe? if i got the orange stripe painted blue, i would want to get black rims, with a blue lip(that's how my camaro was in gran turismo 3 lololol and i thought it looked sickkk)

i'm lowering the car as well, i have a very strong feeling the car was wrecked and rebuilt, so would i run into any problems possibly?

i thought the front end conversion would be a good idea, but 1 grand and all the risk's don't seem worth it for what i'd get

i also already ordered clear turn signal things, and the rear red things in the back clear

thought's and advice?

If it was fixed right, no. Who knows though, you'll find out when you're in there

if you're talking about "the things" = turn signal lens, and "the rear red things in the back" = tail lights? I think you need to reconsider anything you do to the car yourself until you understand it further. The front is fine, if you want to improve it, make the stripes the same color, it is unique the way it is, but ugly IMO. Fix the stripes, and drive and enjoy it the way it is and that will save you some cash.

Looks like a giant version of the front emblem.

I would never do that to my own car but surprisingly enough - it's not terrible........I've seen a lot worse.

lol I really like it as is with the different colored stripes. I'd get a custom plate that said "Aquafresh" and run with that theme.

I'd get some nicer wheels, maybe some '02 SS wheels and paint them similar to the 35th Anniversary wheels, but make the black blue and orange on the different sides. Oh wait... then half of the people would hate me... oh well...

EDIT:found out what berger refers to, and i really like how the rear end looks, minus the different colored stripes

and i know what taillights are, i wasn't referring to those, i was referring to the red lights on the side towards the back

and it's painted two different colors because the car was supposed to be a gift for someone coming overseas to attend florida state university(the gators)and they never came over

and not gonna lie, thanks for the suggestion brangeta but that would definitely make the car 20 times worse =P


and shock, how noticeable was the difference in performance after you did the air intake and muffler on your 93? i have a cold air intake, with a k&n filter, but i only notice very slight difference in higher rpm's(maybe 4500?)
and the silver/blue thing, i love the color combo of silver and blue stripes, i thought one of the best cars i had ever seen was this silver 01 viper with blue stripes, kinda like the ones in gran turismo 3 if anyone ever played it

A cold air intake will only add about 10hp, you're not going to notice it too much. But it does help.

I wouldn't say the difference was noticeable at all. The only reason I even have the K&N is because a friend owed me some money and couldn't pay up.
