Nice shots, especially the 2nd, of a nice clean stock '99 FRC.

Thanks guys. I have to say, so far I have dealt with 3-4 members of this forum, club as you will, and it has been hands down the best experience online I've had in the car community. I've been around Japanese cars my whole life, I actually own an EVO X and a 93 MR-2 turbo right now, and this is just a great forum. This is my 1st fast American car, my only other American car I've ever owned was a 99 Ford Exploder XLT.
Thanks for the great time so far, and the compliments. I actually like the look of the stock wagon wheels, but I do want to get the following mods for the FRC:
- ZO6 airbox lid (en route) and new filter
- Hood weather stripping (installed)
- ZO6 exhaust (still looking for deal)
- Compartment divider (most likely Christmas present from GF but I won't know yet
)
- Shorter height shifter and a different shift ****
- Fix the damn drivers seat back from collapsing under my weight (yes I did try the quick fix, my seat is just too far gone)
- Possibly red valve covers, not very high priority
- Already installed the PXDX with AUX cable, but my next mod is to hookup a bluetooth car kit with microphone

Meguires 105 & 205 along with a Flex or Proter Cable polisher with the right pads. Along with a weekend time frame. Going to take some elbow grease and time is all. Very cool pics as well. I'm digging the wagon wheels on it. Thanks for sharing.

What pads do you recommend? I currently have a cheaper 1 speed random orbital but I may invest in a nicer setup since I will be doing the EVO and vette a lot anyway.

Nice looking ride you've got. The pics really show the car off very well.
