Good looking car, just get those tips aligned though . What are the plans, or are they secret?

No secret. I want twin turbos. That's down the road though. Right now, I plan on LT's, Vararam or Honker, nice sounding cam, and a tune. Also, I love my wheels, but I think later I may try to find some repro's in a 18/19 combination. I'm constantly wanting to change something. I saw on here months ago a black Z lowered on stock Z wheels that were painted black with the thin red pinstripe around them. I loved that look but didn't know how it would look against silver. Anybody out there that could photochop my pics?
