Yes. Decided that would compliment the look better.

I'm sure that will look great im assuming you got the idea from ryans car? Also did you ever consider having the quarter windows with the clear scoops? but having the panels painted yellow and having the clear area tinted black.

MinnGreen's GT right? I love that car.

I could definitely see that in yellow with the smoked/clear scoop.

Yes thats correct it is MinnGreen's GT

edit: the reason i mentioned these scoops is because it would give the car that more -wide- look. Seeing that the car is now a widebody with the scoops made into the body it would go great with the quarter window with the scoops.

You sir are inconsiderate. How are we supposed to look our cars in the headlights and honestly say we're not fantasizing about yours? I only hope I don't say your car's name while driving mine. That would be awkward.

I'd been toying with this idea for over 7 years. I've seen what others have done and used that to make my choice.

I picked my car up yesterday. One thing I had to do was replace the battery. Tomorrow I put on the 10" wheels on the rear with the 285s and move the 255s to the front on 9" wheels with a 1" spacers. More pics coming soon.

Thanks Tony. Here's the most recent pics.

Here's a shot of my car with the paint shop owner. He was nice enough to wait around for me to get there after work.



I had to trim the quarter glass down on the back edge of both pieces so it would fit. Tomorrow morning I get the wider wheels installed.











Also tomorrow I hope to accomplish some of the interior renovations (carpet, vinyl, stereo, etc)
