This is basically the 2/3 done on the exterior with most everything left to do to the interior. Its getting there though. Comments, hate, flaming, whatever. I just wanted an excuse to post up some new pics, haha.
where u order them wheels from man, they are sexy
Looks good! I like the new wheels and flares. You need to shave the gas door, handles and locks! A brickyard spoiler would look good on there too.

agreed relle like where you take this car!!
GOT ECOTEC?
nice work bro, i like where your headed with this!! lovin the rims!
Thanks guys.
As for the gas door. Its staying there, but its not staying the same. I'm doing something custom with that.
Handles.. not sure yet. Perhaps IZN Trbl carbon overlays. I want to keep unneccessary electronic crap out of the car, such as door poppers, power locks, etc.
Less equipment and gadgets in the car, less @!#$ to go wrong. I don't have power windows, mirrors or anything like that and I prefer it that way.
As for spoiler, you got it. Brickyard or RK Sport Pro-stock. Whichever I get my hands on first for a decent price.
As for where the rims came from, it was a somewhat local to me shop in the GTA. (Ontario, Greater Toronto Area). A small industrial unit shop called tires23. They have a website:

can you close the hood next time, i'd like to see the front end. looks nice and glad you painted the hood that way.
i noticed the rear diffuser. nice touch. i started to make my own for my prev j-body but didn't get to finish it cuz i wrecked the car.
great job and keep it up

like what youve done with the car so far except for that hood. i know its the whole drifter deal to let out hot air or whatever, but anytime i look at your car it just makes it look bad. the only people that are going to like that kind of mod would be the drifters, and if your not drifting the cav then their just going to think your a poser. (old school term there lol) i just think it ruins what would otherwise be a good looking car. as for the rims i agree with silver, they look hot but after a while your going to hate cleaning them.

nice job, looks like you've improved her quite a bit since the last pics!
Car looks good keep it up
I'm gonna steal your Rims lol..... How do you keep your White So Clean? LOVE the Wheels and the Bodywork!
thats a sweet car and like said about digging the rims
RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...
Rims definately did a lot for it, I actually am liking it a bit more.
Still think the hood is @!#$ stupid, but eh.
Keep it up
.
so how did you make your rear diffuser and what did you end up using as a base for the fender flairs?
Love the frickn' rims. Those are amazing. Your car is really nice too.
Car is coming along nicely, GORGEOUS RIMS!!
Fender flares: Pontiac Vibe GT front flares, I reversed the sides they came off so they properly flowed. (left front to right rear, right front to left rear..). Did some trimming and molded them on. Built up the lower quarter panel somewhat more to better blend them in.
The rear diffuser panel? Polycarbonate. In other words, lexan. It's actually 2 pieces. I pre-measured, cut rectangles. Used a torch and an exhaust pipe piece held in by a vice to work in the curve. Sanded down the edges, made inner fins out of lexan, added small L brackets hidden underneath, a bead of hot glue along the edges to clean up the seam ANNNNNDDDDD Krylon'd the @!#$ out of it. It's held on by small pop rivets.
I would have never come up with the rear diffuser panel so soon but I was pissed when my rims didn't come in Tuesday so I had to do something for the car.
yeah i really like the idea of the diffuser as i have the type j as well...good idea man!
Wow! White + Gold is freaking tits!!! The rims are perfect for your car, good choice!
