Re: Took some pics

looks great!
your som looks very different... looks less metallic or something.

some suggestions (basically what i did with mine... i have an 02 som): rear fill ins. they set it off, break up the color a little bit. im probably going with a graphite berger panel and some chrome fill ins with mine.
remove the pin-stripe maybe?
another cheap mod is the front grill fill ins. i just got some white ones, they cost a few bucks, and it looked great while i was saving up for a billet grill.
chrome halos and clear corners would also look amazing!

edit: here are some pictures to give you some ideas. i'll also see if i can find the link to a thread on ls1tech of only SOM cars.

I was thinking about the fill ins. I took the license plate off the grille today before I took those pics and was thinking that before I can save up for whatever grille i end up getting, I could fill in the letters with SOM touch up paint and paint the rest of it gloss black.. it would be a nice personal touch. I hadn't thought about the corners though... now i just might have to do that :naughty:
