My SS/TC
These are the first pictures I've gotten to put up since I've joined, so let me know what y'all think! They're not really great pictures and my car is really dirty, so sorry about that one.
Stock springs:
After B&G Springs:
A couple of updated pictures, sorry for the dirtiness:
Don't know why headlight looks fogged, guess a random angle of the picture?
And some pictures of it washed up for my car club's tent at Texas State
[/QUOTE]
Mod List:
CIA short ram intake
CIA charge piping
ZZP catless downpipe with Summit Racing cutout welded in
3" straight pipe
HP Tuned
B&G Springs
Black housing headlights with painted eyelids
5,000K HIDs in lows and fogs
Black bowtie
Debadged except for red SS emblems
18" American Racing Speedway wheels w/ 235/40R18 KDW2's
Wingless
Soon I'll be switching to an E85 tune, and hopefully in a few months (if I can get my wheels sold) I'll be switching to 18x9.5" candy purple Varrstoen's with gold Brembos and Stance coils. But for now I'm just a broke college student

I'm still trying to decide if I want to tint the rims, and I definitely need to remove that dent. I'm pretty positive someone just punched it leaving a party at my house, classic ******* move.
And I'm not too much of a fan of the rims, they were on the car when I bought it and the best I could do was change the lip from polished to red.
The best way to describe the springs are: when you take a corner it feels like you're riding on rails....and when you hit a bump it feels like you're riding on rails lol. Overall, I really like them but my rear fenders need rolling and I need to fix the issue of my exhaust banging around and then it'll be even better.
The only thing I can really do with my license plate now is wrap it around the lip, I usually have it in my window but I constantly get pulled over because the cops can't see it

I don't think I will, like you said it matches the accents well and I feel like the blacked out look is a little overdone in my town. Hopefully the wheels will be gone soon, I still don't know why the original owner put them on there lol

That's the one part on the car that I'm not completely sure of, I bought it from a dealership with the intercooler already installed and hanging down almost touching the ground. Turns out his supports weren't strong enough so it literally bent and tore the metal in half and I had to have stronger brackets rewelded back on. All is good now though!

Not a fan of the rims. But looks clean man. Keep it up.
IMO go with a different color than goldfir the brembos. It's getting out played hardcore now lol. There are like....3 people with it and we gold guys are like..WTF! lol
You're going to need a bit to do a proper e85 tune, just be prepared for the hassle of it all.
Also interior pictures?
