Only mods so far are shown in the rear shot. The dual dual tips, and removed the firebird lettering and hawk from the rear center panel. Since the front bumper needs repainted (at least the bottom), I'm thinking of just doing a stripe around the bottom of the car. Roughly the bottom 2" of it, whatever flows best with those two lips at the bottom of the front bumper and draw it back more or less, looping all the way around the nose as well though. I just can't decide if I want a light silver, a dark gray, or just black. As it sits I think the light silver would look best, but I also plan to tint the tails, markers, and turn signals black eventually. Though, if I wanted the shop could candy the tails, markers, and signals to the same color as the strip around the bottom. Eventually may lead to a change in wheels that match the accent color as well.

Suggestions welcome!

 

I didn't read your whole description, car looks pretty good overall but i would definitely drop it atleast an inch if i were you. It looks like a 4x4.

 

If I droped the car an inch I woudlnt be able to drive it. The exhuast hangs too low where the trans crossmember is, and already rubs on me if I have too much weight in the car going over ANY bump at all (sometimes even without any extra weight). So that is out, as it would be anyway when I eventually get LT headers lol. I think it sists low enough anyways, its already below the mirror of most SUV's and trucks *shrug*

 

I agree that the car looks a bit high even for a stocker. Is your exhaust system stock or did someone redo the entire setup?

 

it sits the same height as any other firebird I've been beside, must just be the angles *shrug*. As for the exhuast, yes it has been completely re-done. True dual H-pipe setup from the cats back, under the axle because the shop didn't feel that going over the axle with the limited space was safe *shrug*

 

Nevermind, it looks good. Those angles in the first pics made it look alot different, that last one is a whole lot better.

 

LOL, figured that would change the opinion.

As for the stripe around the bottom, anyone have an opinion?

Black/dark gray/silver? (bottom 2-3" variably so it flows with the lines of the car of course, starting smaller upfront.)

 

Looks good, I think I can see your pipes on the last picture.

 

Could be that the shadow on the picture in question make your car appear raised up. But if in reality it is not, then no worries.

 

glad everyone likes the car minus the look of riding high in the pics.. but anyone with an opinion on the bottom strip possibility? lol, or even better someone with great photoshop talent.

I tried a stab at it, and it came out looking like something I def wouldnt mind trying.
