  • Sunset Orange Metallic Convertible

    I tried posting some pictures of my car.... I took so many that I couldn't get them all in. Maybe this will work. Let me know what you think. Anything I might do to improve it? You probably have to cut and paste this link.

    Thanks

    That all depends on what you are looking to do to it. Do you want to keep it as stock looking as possable with just small things done to it or do you want to go all out?

      I'd say just small things.

            Hmmm. id start with getting some new tips for the exhaust they look like they have been through a bit. and if you want to go the extra step i would go with a cat back exhaust to give it a nice sound. some new floor mats too. maybe some headlights and front turn lights.
            like these, they make some different styles with black and chrome backings. i think the clear and chrome would look best on yours. an insert for the camaro on the back too. im trying to think of small stuff to do lol, im the kind of guy that likes to make a good bit of changes that turn heads. so this is take quite and effort on my part to think of suddle things.



            other than that the body and paint look to be in great shape. you would be supprised to responces you get just by keeping a car real clean

                Ok...so who has photo shop or something like that that can give me an idea of what it would look like with a different grill and lights. I've thought about it, but something tells me that it won't look right, with the color and all. Those kind of things look real good on a silver or pewter car, black and blue. I saw one of those billet grills on a red car, and I didn't like it.

                The exhaust that is on there is off of a brand new (in 02) Z28 that was wrecked coming off the train before it was even delivered (perks of working at the dealer, I guess) and it sounds OK...but would a cat back exhaust be louder? How loud can you get on a v6? I'm not even sure what a cat back is...but I will look it up. Thanks for the suggestions.....after 7 years....I'm not bored with the car, but I think it's time for some little "face lift" things. You guys are a big help.

                  Re: Sunset Orange Metallic Convertible

                  yeah i forgot the exhaust tips but i'm with bob (nice looking car btw) but as far as sound goes, it can get super loud or be pretty quiet. just depends on what you want and your price range.

                  the chrome rear fill-in would look awesome i think

                  here's a thread for pictures of the SOM f-bodies: http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/appear...m-unite-4.html

                  on that page, go down to almost the bottom and there's the billet grille, looks pretty good

                    ive actually had someone suggest getting a z28 exhaust. and exhaust can get pretty loud. any aftermarket exhaust it going to be louder than a stock exhaust. so if you like the sound of yours i would just get the tips on your exhaust replaced. they make the same style as the ones you have but in chrome. ill try and find some pictures of the same color with some headlights. you would be suprised at how just getting a nice set of wheels will change the look of a car. And if you do that then let me take those off your hands ;).

                      I would do a MagnaFlow Cat back with High flow CAT and Some headers this will 1 Improve the sound and 2 improve the performance. All so if not already done put a Cold Air Intake on it aswell. All these mods should run you about 1000 bucks or so. And would be well worth it. Or you could sell the car to me really cheap LOL but it is a nice car for a vert.
