Thanks. I think a charcol grey stripe would look nice especially if you go with gunmetal wheels. As for the front bumper it costed me $1750 plus the Mirko ($750 SVT front bumper,$1000 to graft the 2bumpers together and then primer it and paint it, The Mirko was another $300). All these prices are in Canadian.

BTW I have thought about making moldes of this bumper and selling it but I'm still undecided wether I want to do that, but if I do I will make each bumper a littler different so the bumper still stay exclusive.

i love it how people only know how to cut up a car. its not your car so what gives you the right to cut up his car.

I personaly think the skirts and apart of the rear bumper shoudl be painted black to match the splitter and stripe on the hood.

Actually I'm getting a flat black stripe goign along teh side of the car just above teh door hanldes. My car got keyed last weekend(2nd time in a year  ) and I can't go through insurance but since it's going back for another paint job next winter and I don't have money right now to re-paint the right side of the car I'm going to do the graphics for now.

damn man that sucks. At least your insurence got it the first time I assume. Ihad to pay out of pocket for all the vandalizime going on in my neighborhood last year. Thier was enough done to my that I could of had it painted and had a body kit or at least rims.

Only thing I would say would be to get the matching tail lights for that pre98 lid, the ones w/o the chrome strip, also dual exhaust like the svt exhaust would be cool too, other than that looks good

i actually like the stripe on the hood. agreed that the mirko should get painted. side skirts r fine. i'd sell the exhaust to a friend and buy a cheap used svt exhaust. some people even give the svt exhaust away. agreed about the matching taillights. otherwise looks great.
