That's right. I had forgotten about the ferrari being vandalized. Glad you were still able to sell it though. Did they ever catch the people responsible?
The firebird actually sounds pretty cool. Do post pictures when you're done. One question though, are you sure you haven't gone too low with the suspension. It looks like it is riding on the bump stops now. I love them low but riding on the bump stops isn't safe.
I know I don't need to say so but do post pictures of the flush glass. I bet it'll look great.

No, it isnt riding on the bump stops.. The 19 Inch wheels gave me a bit more clearance and fill out the wheel wells even with the suspension that low. The Bump stops unbolt so if I do get into them, I will remove them.. I have been driving the car all over town and down the highway(Oklahoma Roads), and it has been fine, but the car isnt loaded down with 4 passengers and a trunk full of grocery's...ha ha

Here are a few pics of some parts fitment.. I will still have to do some treeking, but it is off to the body shop to get the rear bumper, flare and air dam, door handles and locks, and stripes painted. I will say, the flare kit I purchased was about the easiest I have done yet. They actually fit correctly with no trimming, and they are fiberglass rather than ABS plastic.. I havent installed the shorty headers yet, so I havent been able to lower the front end..
What do you guys think, should I lower the front end about 1 inch or raise the rear end a bit?

I say that if you have the room and it won't cause any driving issues to lower the front just a bit. It would look best with the same spacing between the fender lip and wheel at both ends. Looking good so far Robert.
