Got my new cover installed finally. Polished up the rest of the car. It's a close match but a bit darker/more purple pearl. Painter wants to see it, might want to repaint. But here's some result pics. Smile







My paints sure showing some age/blemishes chips. Sad Seems like it was just done too.

looks good in the pics.

My front bumper was painted the same time as other items and is still a slight shade off.

Thanks everyone. As can be seen in the photo's, I think its time for a new air dam too. Also one of the side pieces under the nose is broken in 2 from the dog hit. I didnt realize it until I was changing the nose over.

Looks great I can't wait to make my car pretty. I replaced my air dam last year for something like $30 plus shipping.

Showed the painter today, and he says there's some kind of "red flop" to it and he wants to repaint. So he ordered some more and I'll be taking the car to him soon to try again.

I would never have thought that stock wheels could look that good. But there arent many wheels that I like on firebirds. Most wheels just scream CAMARO.

Just lookin on ebay for the air dam. Turns out this is a base car/formula only piece. Just like the bumper cover. $120 new.. beat up used one listed at $50. And the other formula only panel underneath someone wants $50 for as well. Sad
