Ugh. Giant chrome rims make my eyes hurt. He wants the trim painted to the car color? I guess it'll be interesting...

Oh guys come on - he opens a thread for the painted interior parts to ask for your opinions and all what you are talking about are the rims????

Hmmmm.... I also dislike chrome.

Interior will look much better then!!

Lol. well the chrome might be goin bye bye in the future. but for now were tryin to figure out how we can get a bit more chrome on it without fuckin up the look.

My opinion, the headlights and rims go together but the rear lacks something.

what do you guys think?

I think once color matched those will look sharp.

How do you go about smoothing the parts out?

Is that a parking ticket?

The only Impala (or Malibu, whatever it is) that I have ever liked from that model year was one that was completely blacked out with a perfect fitment for 20's.

In my opinion, your friend needs to at least lower the car a little more to fit those satelite dishes he's got. Then simple things like nice size pipes (3" MAX), maybe led retro-tails, do they offer a lip kit for that car? Simple things. I don't know if your friend is into really flashy things, but I think the simpler, the better with that car.

ejclide - Sand, sand, primer, sand, primer sand, primer, sand, primer, paint... lol

Mopar00Neon - No its a business flyer, we get them all the time here, its annoying. People are like ninjas, u leave the car for a minute and wen u come back out theres 5 flyers on one window

Well hes considering bags or cylinders, so no more lowers til then. And the exhaust is already in the plans we just needa figure out what muffler to run so it wont sound lame... Every one around here only deals with Flowmaster super 40 series shit. Its stupid.

Trust me everything u listed is already on the list, maybe its just missing all that shit huh. lol haha

Only thing worse than a hideous car with no suspension mods rocking GIANT wheels, is seeing them on during the winter, with snow on ALL the windows. I know that doesn't pertain in your area, but it seems as though he may be that "type."

Na he wants to get a set of steelies or atleast stock alloys. And it is lowered about 1.5"but no aftermarket suspension .

I got some shit done but i fucked it up. Layed the paint to heavy and it started crackin
