Yes I agree!!!

But where can I find clear turn signals. I have always tried to find them but either the guy wants a arm an a leg for them of they are not high quality whenm I do!!! As far as the mirrors go I think you don't see many white T's with theses so I may leav them alone..

I got mine through "Red Regal T" on this site. They were damn near perfect as you can see in my photo (click the T emblem in my sig). If Red doesn't have any more I'm sure he can point you in the right direction. His price was very fair too!

OK thanks!!

I am sure they will look very well against the white bumpers!! @ first I thought it may look too ricey but the orange ones kinda stick out there so the clear will kinda make the front more smooth..

Dude, your car looks killer. Very clean and uncluttered without side moldings, and the polished Convos look great. I actually think the exhaust looks good, kinda racy looking. Are those 'glass bumpers, or stock w/o the rub strip?

They look like the same size Convos that I have, 15"x8.5" w/3.375"bs? I like them a lot, they put the tire right at the edge of the wheelwell. I have 28x11.5x15 QTP's on mine, what are you running for tires?

Good luck with it!
Steve

Ok

Thanks guys for all the compliments!! Finally got a Double Pumper in there now I can go to the track an see what she will do!! As far as the zip tie on the pos+ battery wire I think it will be ok. The bottom link is the one that moves. I know its not like that from the factory but ir works for now . But later when I get time will make it look better..

Did you get my email Chuck?? It's pretty much the same on the outside except for brand new fiberglass bumper feelers front an rear an a brand new GN front hood panel cause the other one had a small hair line crack in it form swapping out the motors that was getting to me. I can honestly say this car is flawless.

Man over 2000 View's!!! Can we say car of the month!!! I did AR TT II's in 20" like "HybridT" has on his car in blk center's too. I will post pics when I get them on the car.. Also have a new RJC Megacooler an I am contemplating putting holes in the center of the front "fiberglass" bumper as to use all the efficiency of the cooler. The lower 10" is blocked behind the bumper which kinda sucks.

That car looks awesome. Where did you get the hood insulation? I heard you can stilll get the stock ones but with no logo. I like the "T" better though.
