^ S/C Doing good man, havent had a chance to get all I want on, full exhaust is just waiting to be welded and put on, the intercooler is almost good to go(removed the condenser since im not using that, more space) to keep the HO cool. Gas gauge im not worry about lol.
Sleeper look back to winter:

That is one slick looking car. I like the rims alot, they look way clean, the tint like blends in with the car.
So your headlights, did you take them out and just paint the bezels black and leave the orange reflectors in? or what did you do?

well it does kinda look clean with the black bezels, but in the end i think cleared corners are just cleaner looking.

Hell yeah im in the anti-clear mafia I wanted something different than the other car that I had the clear on it, but also the whole theme I want is black and bronze(or gold). Hence why I left the amber on this time, and got the plate frame color and I was missing the emblems to change them, until these wheels came by and I couldn't let them pass. Might change the wheels for the next year. The car paint is not perfect tho, some rust starting and few marks from the previous owner. Ill probably paint it after winter if money is available.
Th0r I like your car color and whole theme, wish my bro can get one that looks like yours & have both,and especially that weather that you Florida guys get free of rust.
01Olds ill be all over that trade if I were you for the right price obviously, im guessing the car should be mint and rust free. You wont regret the 5-speed.
Thanks to all for the comments

Dam that drescription sounds like mines haha.. My has 108 right now, but I did pay 2500 when it was about 99k. I know this cars grow on people lol, especially if you done stuff to it already. I know 5-speed is fun and all, but you would be downgrading from v6 power and the torque. But I hope that your engine is not a ticking bomb waiting for the LIMG to happen around that mileage. What color is the one for sale?
