Re: What is in style now??

It has been an excellent car and was taken very good care of. I think it needs to be updated a little however it is a nice base to build on. I think a set of at least 17 inch Cobra Rs would be a good place to start. I really would like a nice coupe but this car is a little sentimental to me....lot of memories in this car and I plan on keeping it.

We'll have to agree to disagree on those.

Re: What is in style now??

Do I have "gangsta tint" because my tint is dark and my whole front w/s is tinted? Or are you referring to platinum tint?

Whit doesn't like anything darker than 35%.

Re: What is in style now??

I personally like the chrome Cobra Rs. They look really good on a show/crusin car. Ours has some but they dont have the Cobra R center cap and they're 4 lug. I want to upgrade to 5-lug 4 wheel discs and get the real deals. To me the silver ones look good on cars that are for racing applications. They give you the look without the eye catching feature.

Anything darker than 35%, or any tint on a windshield is a $206.00 fine! and if I stop a car with tint I can't see through ALL passengers are introduced to Terra Firma--I take NO chances.

Noel.

That car is appears to have very good paint still on it. It looks good. I would throw a cowl hood on it (around 2" rise) and some kind of 17" wheel. I wouldn't do the 'R's but that's just me. Start thumbing through the magazines and see what other wheels are out there now.

I understand where you're coming from, but that doesn't mean it doesn't look good.


My car has 20%. The only reason it doesn't have 5% is because I think that might be too dark for backing out of driveways and stuff at night. 20% is almost too dark sometimes.
