That's an interesting look with the clear turn signals in front. Not sure if that's legal though. Are those LED bulbs or just clears? They look pretty bright in that pic.

Anyway yeah, might want to do something with the bumper under those headlights too. I had a similar problem with my RK sport bumper. Plastic was too flexible and ended up wavy. I fixed mine by gluing a thin aluminum strip to the inside of the bumper under that edge and clamping it in place until the glue was dry. Reinforced it nicely so it stays flat.

Tails look good too, although I'm not a fan of tinting lights. Makes it hard for people to see your brake lights and more likely that you'll get rear ended. You might want to look into upgrading the third brake light to an LED one. That will make it nice and bright so people can see when you're braking. I think there's one from a newer Impala or something that everyone uses? Do a search on here and you'll find it.

If I had the SC/T kit speed bumps would be a problem

Angles you sissy!

AaronGTR · 06-14-2013, 01:15 PM

Nah, that speed bump isn't even that high. Not compared to the ones I had to deal with in FL. If your air deflector under the car clears it, then the sc/t kit should too.

I know I won't be able to get my driveway though if I end up getting it

, i would have to take the front lip off everytime.

Shade2012 · 06-14-2013, 03:10 PM

Getting the front windows tinted Tuesday. I'm going with 20% in the front and a 7" windshield brow.

I did my F-body brake upgrade today. I got the semi-loaded calipers that came powdercoated red, slotted and drilled discs, and ceramic brake pads from RockAuto all for $270 which included shipping.

Shade2012 · 06-15-2013, 09:44 AM

Looks good.

Dat headlight fitment.

geldartb · 06-15-2013, 12:02 PM

headers on the floor stock manifolds back on the car.

was intending on taking them off anyway to weld in some v-bands. plus i was trying to get it quieter to satisfy the inspection vagina's so they will give me a sticker..

no egr on the stock manifolds anymore. couldn't get the the one i had on the headers off and i really didn't give a damn so it got welded shut. bolted the egr on the intake with a sheet metal gasket to cover the hole..

AaronGTR · 06-15-2013, 06:33 PM

you can't pass inspection with headers?

:

I though only cali was that draconian.
