Default Two weeks old

I just picked it up two weeks ago! It's Top Banana #297, modified by California Concepts. They removed the stickers and did the stripes. They also painted the engine cover to match. It also has Flowmaster 40's on it. The next step is a CAI...maybe for Xmas (hint hint hint). I sold my '72 Vette in Feb. and have been itching for some performance very since (the Honda didn't cut it)! Whatya all think?

I'm not too sure what kind of paint they used. But, they put a heavy clear over it
so you can not see or feel the paint color transitions. Even with all that paint i
still got rub marks on my trunk too. I have to keep everyone from slamming
the darn thing all the time.
