Heh, and watch out for parking bumpers with that big air dam. I see so many ricers around here with thise big body kits, all cracked up and hanging off because they don't know how to park the thing.

Good to see you're careful. I always cringe when I see what's left of other peoples dams in parking lots next to those frig'n parking bumpers.

What makes it interesting,even being 6'3" ,even I cant see the nose on my 79.Pulling into parking spaces,you stop where it looks like youre a bit too far from those concrete 'bumpers',& in reality thats about perfect

That's why so many people use the "Scrape" method. When you hear scraping...you stop. *Cringe*

50's will make the tire a little taller. I running 255/60/15's on factory aluminum rims on all four. Now I just have to lower it a tad.

I might. Are they expensive emblems? I don't want crappy pitted used ones. I'd want some shiny new ones.
