I agree about new exhaust/tips. The exhaust sounds real good so I will probably leave that alone-just trying to get something to look a little better.

Re: New pics of my new car-feedback appreciated

Very nice! that's the car I've always wanted except I want tan interior.

But anyway, I would paint the air vent bezels SOM and maybe get some silver 35th stripes.

CME or Corsa exhaust

Black halo's

Stainless stell inserts

again very nice

if you have to ask you cant afford them

Fiske FM5's are quite the expensive wheel, arent they like $600 each or something.

some clear corner and/or clear side markers. I love the idea of the halo lights. I've always thought that those look awesome. Ofcourse, you can alway sticker charge it

That car is awesome, I wouldn't change any appearence factor on it. Mmmmmm Fikse FM5. You don't happen to have the ZR1s that came on it still do you?

Re: New pics of my new car-feedback appreciated

Ditch the crappy dual dual tips and pick up a Center Mount Exhaust kit from SLP. NOT the quad "kit" but the actual CME option you could get on the 01+ SS cars. You should be able to call them and get just tips and rear valance.

Also, your ride height is perfect, and your wheels look awesome, offset and all, but (many might not agree with me on this) if it were mine, I would have those wheels powdercoated either dark gunmetal with a polished lip or black with a polished lip. Would look great with the color of the car... But thats just me

Nice car!

Re: New pics of my new car-feedback appreciated

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I don't have the stock ZR1's that came with the car. I'm not sure what the wheels cost since they came with it when I bought it-I did a quick search and best price I found was $3,000 but you could probably get them for a little less.

As soon as I bought the car I started thinking about what to do for the exhaust-the whole car looks great but the exhaust is missing the appearance (sounds great though). I was thinking about doing clear turn signals and rear side markers, but can't find a SOM with it done so I can see how it looks.

I must be out of the loop b/c this is the first time I heard anything about halo headlights, I'll have to look in to it. Also, ground effects would be awesome-may have to start saving up for that. Thanks for the comments and I'll keep you all updated with any changes I make.

Erik
