Default Life in the fast lane...

Ok... so I might have an LS, but, I can still PRETEND it goes fast!

heres the new pics of what Ive done... only thing missing now is the rims I did. I dont have the money now to drop on new rubber, so, its going to sit like this for a few more weeks.

(Im in a rush to post, so some pictures might be kinda blurry. Ill come back and edit when they are all done uploading)

omg what the hell you done to it? i think if you paint the bottom half black or vice versa that would look way better.

i like the total different style compared to any other monte on the road that ive seen. it looks cool and different, you should of finished it wraping around the front and rear bumper to make it look complete

its in planning... I just cant put a good design on paper that will have the rest go with the parts of the car. I was going to 2 tone the bottom, but this cost me a full $200 to do. I decided since the car will soon probably be on the way out... 200 is enough to spend instead of 1500+ for paint.

I did that so I would make the rims look like they fit with the car better. Red lines on the rim, red lines on the bottom half of the vehicle.

It isn't my thing at all, but I give you props on what looks like a lot of hard work and time.
