Nice looking ride, and good looking mods so far! Where you going to get the replacement trim to replace the wood inside?

Im going to either have it hydro dipped or paint it. had good luck with a fine metallic silver basecoat and a scuff pad to give a brushed nickel appearance.

Agreed! Still battling with the driver, aka the wife. Want to do a 2/3 Mcgaughys that a friend is selling.

Just convince her that the 2/3 drop is the best modification for safety, and it'll improve the gas mileage too! :gr_grin:

ive never been a fan of that newere body style but i have to say yers looks pretty nice
not to austintacious but sleek
now you need a set of 20s or 22s not a flashy set of rims you need a modest set
then drop it like 2 or 3 inches and be done with cosmetic stuff

Looks great. How did you black out the chrome grill shell?

Basecoat/clearcoat gloss black. Pulled it out, sanded with 800 grit, prime, paint. Its held up well so far.
