yes they are just the stock trans am cross lace wheels, they were slightly diffrent on some of the pre 87s than the rest of the years (the cross area around the hub was diffrent) but noo one will ever know, did you even know that? mine are charcole color and not the standard black that most people have. not sure if when i redo them i want to powdercoat them black or go w/ the same color.
i have been toying w/ finding some bigger wheels, well wider. ive been reading and it seems a 17" would probably be the best. but i want there to be some sort of dish to the wheel and have the center section blacked out to somewhat resemble the stock ones. |

That's the one I almost bought! The guy selling it had a c4 vette as well. It was a nice looking car and the first t-top car I'd with t-top shades. Real nice looking paint. Did the dent on the fender get fixed?
Sweet looking still! _________________

i cant see any dents... course i don't know where to look. i like the color matched ttops... nice. the ones on my six are al oxidised and crap... might be a good direction to go... i'll probably pain them black instead of white though..

yea its on the top of the drivers side fender.......he said its from dropping a 2 x 4 on it. other then that, i scuffed the corner on the pass side bumper
the paint job is a pretty crappy, looks like a maco or something, there are a few runs and orange peel. the wing is cracking and the paint is coming off, i think partly because they didnt use enough flexing agent (maybe) and just because its old and the metal frame inside is rusting causing the urathane to crack. i just need to get me one of them fiberglass ones.
anyways, im not to worried about it as its my daily driver......and people dont notice it when i fly by them
