Skirts aren't too bad man, I rocked them too, but you need a rear to balance the whole look of the car
Modding my j since I found the org
Really can't find anything I dislike.
Good job!

I know what you mean...
It looks really off here, but everything is staying as is for now, gonna deal with the suspension first, motor next, and looks last. Well that's the plan, for now that is.
i would definitely burn the skirts. they do not look right on there whatsoever. other than that, very nice.
I choose the technology built for land speed records... not the technology built to save on emissions and gas mileage.
Those skirts with stock wheels do not look right. With the other wheels not bad, but the back bumper is off. A RK Sport rear would go nicely.

I like it overall. I was really happy to see the Z24 front. The side skirts are fine, it kind of looks like a Supra or 240SX when ppl only do the front and sides and leave the rear bumper stock. What are your suspension and performance plans?
2004 Cavalier Sedan
Great progress... Switch to some factory skirts, z24 or LSS. Even for an aftermarket or kitted car, these have always been the ugliest skirts out there. Considering the look your going with so far, something subtle will set the car off much much better.
Thanks for the compliments guys.

teins ss are on the way, should be here by the end of this month. Performance? drop in a rebuilt block with a ported head, would love to make 200-220 at the wheels.

want to sell me your side skirts?
I love the car as it sits with the aftermarket rims. I wouldn't change a thing on the exterior. I would like to see some rear shots however.
I got some 00-02 z24 skirts just sittin' around... if you're interested?

Turbo, turbo manifold, couplers and fabricated down pipe in the closet. Inter cooler underneath my bed, and exhaust components next to my bed

Thanks, Once the teins go on, I'll take some rear shots

I would be, but theres a reason I didn't go with z24 skirts, It would make the car look exactly like a z24, if you have LSS or Rk sport ones though let me know

Honestly, I never notice that until you pointed it out

Yep thats the plan, Im still going to do little visual things here and there while I save up for the motor though.
Stock z skirt, stock looking z, not the plan I'm going for

Also quick question, what is the stock setting for the camber plates, there used so there both in different positions.
Mine are not at the same settings. Just toss them on, get it aligned, and then you'll be golden.
Wow the car is awesome............ I like the exterior of car along with color and body structure. The car is looking pretty cleaned. please post some photos of interior also and thanks for sharing these.
Rola Roof Racks
man I love that color!
And I actually really like those skirts on there.
I think a 03-05 LS rear bumper would look good with those side skirts, to me it flows okay enough from the Z front bumper into the skirts, its when it gets to the rear bumper that throws it off.
Or even a 00-02 with the rear lip.
The aftermarket rims look perfect on the car.
IMO it would look nicer with amber corners to match the bumper lights.
