New pics of my Vic

Nothin' special, I repainted the grille and bezels awhile ago. No chrome now! I also removed the wheel well trim today. I'm going to paint some more chrome black, and probably dye the vinyl top black since removal is a pain. I'm gonna paint the wheels black, too. Probably add some tint on the windows also.

that is fucking awesome

if you paint the wheels black, i'd ditch the whitewalls

[boXman]

Nah, whitewalls are stayin. :evil:

[Paul_]

its a shame the blue oval on the 88-91's isn't removable. you could get a chrome one and that would really make the front of the car look good

just out of curiousity, where did you find tires that have such a huge whitewall?

[boXman]

I got those off of Tire Rack. I was looking for wider than most, and Eric had these and told me about them. Excellent tires, too. Sumitomo HTR 200's, H rated. That is the only size with a whitewall, 225/70/15. Last time I looked, they didn't have them anymore.

That thing needs beauty rings and chrome dog dishes.. :slug: I love the
white walls.

Looks good. Did it come factory without bumper guards?

I love the red wheels!

Yep, it did. I believe those were an option, or LX only. I've only seen them on LX's.

Me, too. What "red" is it? What brand of paint?

[boXman]

Candy Apple Red, from walmart. 2 bucks a can or somethin like that. I think the can had some gold on it...been awhile.

Coker has lots of good white walls. Even have some where the white wall is set in on the tire so curbing won't mess them up.
