                        I didn't think I'd like the color.

                        I enjoy being wrong.

                        I like it. Reminds me of a BMW. All it needs now is a nice set of BBS wheels, lol.

                            wow, thanks for the positive feed back guys. the color is light pewter metallic. id love to get a set of BBS wheels but, it aint in the buget. i was thinking alot about the 98-01 ranger/explorer chrome slotted rims. i can prolly get a set for a good price. right now, my focus is to get GMGT together, then will deal with the wheels. if time allows, we shal have the header on by the weekend. then all hell breaks loose when i get it over to my work cause ill be putting everything together as fast and best as i can!

                              Looks good ,but it needs a front end and stuff

                              Are you putting wheelwell and lower rocker trim back on, or is it staying de-trimmed?
