I put the magnaflow exhaust on and a K&N, When the tires wear out I'm thinking wheels 18" any suggestions gotta be chrome or polished! nothing to wild I'm over 50 Other than thatI'm done for now.
I do have a LT spoiler if someone wants it.

Luv the color
Thanks dustybird it's code 63 Sport Red effect it has alot of pearl and metallic it's also $140 a quart with clear over that. It wasn't a cheap paint job. My wife flipped when I told her how much I spent on paint! But she really likes it now infact I haven't even driven it since I got done.

Nice '06. Wish I could find a deal like that and have a decent running car when done with it.

Good luck with the car.

I like the color and the ss parts on it. I'm planning on putting the ss air dam on my car too. How does the Magnaflow's sound on there? Got a sound clip

I don't have a sound clip (not to computer savy) but it doesnt sound to bad, performance is a little better mostly at the top end. It sounds like a V6 with a cat back on it. I have Dynomax on my GP it sounds about the same, The GP may be a bit louder.
If you plan on the SS air dams you have to change the bumper covers and rocker skirts, or do some mods. I didnt use the SS rockers or the bumper covers so I had to do some cutting to make them fit. also I had to tuck the front and rear airdams in about a inch to match the rockers, But it came out good.

I'm having a friend of the family do it, he owns his own body shop and said he'll make it work so I'm leaving it to him. Because IDK body work, lol. I have Flowmaster's now on my car and was looking into the Magnaflow Catback. Is the sound and performance worth it? Could you have someone help you but a video on the comp. I would really like to hear what it sounds like before I spend $550

Great looking paint job. She will look nice with 18" chrome wheels. I'm an over 50 guy myself, and I like the bling bling look. I really like the 18" chrome wheels on my 07 SS, which are the GM accessory wheel for both the Monte & Impala. Expensive, but I live in the great white north, and wanted the GM factory warranty on the wheels, as I don't intend to switch them out for the winter. These would look great IMHO with your colour. I get many many comments on them.

I still have the original equipment 18"SS wheels which came on the car. I have them for sale @ $200 canadian each. Probably can get them on E Bay or somewhere cheaper, but if I don't sell them, they will be going back on the car at trade-in time.
