The car looks sexy, wheels are different and look great. You'r only about 30 minutes away hope to see the car around. Ever come to roanoke?

I really don't mind the hood pins when they're functional.. rather have some hoodpins than risk my life with the hood flying up.

Thanks for all the comments guys, and like I said, I just picked it so havnt gotten around to do much to it yet, moneys a little tight now haha and as everyone here knows, making it yours takes time and money.

I dont usually head up to Roanoke often, but might be up there a couple times this summer, i've been tryin to figure out if there were any other guys around here with sn's, good to know theres at least one haha, have to check yours out sometime

I like the wheels man just get a good polish in them and they will shine. Keep the Crab Claw on there someone else said. Get a Set of coilovers or Pro Kit and ditch the pin on hood and get a 96-98 Cobra Hood and you will be set man. Looks good though so far.

You ever get down around Norfolk??

MadStang · May 28, 2011

Get some better shots of the rims when you clean them up! I kind of suspected they weren't gold or baller status but wasn't sure. Car looks great bro!

OnyxCobra · May 30, 2011

I think it looks pretty badass. I don't usually like that style wheel but they are workin well on that car. :thumbsup:

2v_takeover · May 30, 2011

Nice lookin' car dude. I'm votin' for ditching the pins, but other than that, you've got a pretty nice modlist!

vermilion · May 30, 2011

id take that wheels. i like them alot.

wytstang · May 30, 2011

Good looking car and keep the hood pins. They are a must when using aftermarket hoods. Replacing a hood and windshield and the repaint aren't worth the no hood pin on street cars.

^Not to mention the danger it puts other people in. Luckily that guy was on his own, but it looks like the thing flew off behind him. Anyone around could have potentially had a hood flying through their windshield.

johns94gt · May 30, 2011

Been there with my 86 and nothing more scary then going 50 down the road and your hood gets ripped off of your car not to mention the danger for others and the damage in result of it!!!!
