Question Should I?

Okay, I think I have the game plan out for my car, I'm going to

get it painted Blazing Cady Apple Red, add the Wings West W-

Type Body Kit, tint my windows 20% all around, get quad exhaust

tips (Chrome), get the 3pc. lip spoiler, and upgrade to 18" rims.

So...what do you think?

I think it would look great, except for the wing. I'm not a fan of the 3 piece wing. I either like the SS wing or the stock wing. Get some pics up of it when it's all done. Should look sharp.

ofcourse it's your car but i would go a totally different route, paint it black, get 17" chrome wheels, have it lowered, do the tint, get blackouts for the headlights and front turn signals. forget about the gfx and 3 piece spolier IMO they only make the car sit higher like a caviler. I love black Camaros with tint and chrome performance wheels, and a lowered stance, That is slick. I would get 17" instead of 18's for 3 reasons, 1. i think the 17's look better because tires are good looking too, i like the balence with 17's especialy with lowering. 2. the bigger the wheel the slower your car will be. and 3. 17's will be cheaper for both wheels and tires. but get some really nice wheels corvette 5-spokes or SS 10 spokes in chrome. just picture it, I get all excited just tinking about what your car could look like i would just get a standard exhaust with nice chrome tips and to top the car off i would get an SS hood, ofcourse you would do that before painting, but you should still be under buget. then you still have the option of getting silver stripes and decals, which would look damn good too.

I agree about the wing you should go with a 98up SS wing.

Sounds good to me. What ever is gonna make you happy is what you should do. Our opinions shouldn't matter much. If you put on your car whatever we said, then it would be our car and not your car.

I don't paln on lowering my car, being how low it is already, and how the roads here in PA Suck, Lowering is not an option. As for the hoos, I was thinking of the 3' Dominator hood from www Carhoods.com

Quick question, is it hard to see at night with 20% tint on the front window?

"Quick question, is it hard to see at night with 20% tint on the front window?"

That there is the reason most states make it illegal to have tint on the windshield, it is hard to see at night. If it is not illegal in your state, I would stay away from doing it anyway. IMO, it would be about equivalent as talking on a cell phone while driving; you can do it, but it is bound to be the reason for your next accident.

After carefull reviewing of the 3pc. lip spoiler, I decided not to get it, it's not worth the price, becides the stock spoiler looks fine. I'm still debating on the tint, I think it would look sick with the black top and red body. I am getting the W-Typ body kit, so if anybody knows where I can get one real cheap it would be really appreciated. Rims, any ideas or suggestions, I was thinking of the bullit style rims, the Corvette rims are hot too. I don't know, please help me out, what will make my car stand out, next to Whistler
