  • dark bird

    so i did it yesterday. they turned out really well, although i still have to wetsand and polish, i'm waiting for it to cure a little more. the only thing left with the rear appearancewise is the fill-in and exhaust tips. however, i feel the red on the centerpiece is a little out of place, suggestions on what to do?

    i'll get some more pictures up when i get 'em all shiny.

    You could do chrome or silver overlays, or just black it out and ditch the bird. Looks real good though.

        Looks excellent man. Very tastefully done. If it was my car I would keep the bird logo the same color as the Pontiac fill in letters. Chrome or brushed aluminum would look great. You could also do a nice black or blackish color for the Pontiac fill in's and that would look good too IMO. What exhaust setup and tips are you gonna put on that beast?

          i would leave the red and pull it in by painting your calipers red.

            bout time i got to see your ride man, looks good

            i vote chrome overlay for the bird or black it out, definitely chrome inserts or black ones if you delete the bird.

            get on that exhaust man! she stock?

              ok guys, i've been depressed as of late, but lucky for me, i have you guys and the bird which equals my salvation (basically).

              anywho..i think i want to black the back out and get black pontiac fill-ins. i did buff my tails out and they now look amazing however i wasn't able to get any pictures before i left for the lake.

              the only performance mods (sort of) are !air silencer and lid smoothing. so yeah the exhaust is stock. that's my next project though. full 3" exhaust which will include tips. i'd like to have dual duals but maybe not..T/A bumper? that'd be awesome, but right now? not plausible.

              and thanks for the compliments guys. i'll be around..
