Default 06 Monte SS

New to the forum, just wanted to let people know I'm here!

A little about my car:
I own a 2006 black Monte Carlo SS. I've owned it since Nov. 2007 (senior year of high school). The first thing I did was put Magnaflow Performance mufflers on (since we all know the full package is WAY too expensive!), and when that was done I had the tips brought out just slightly past the rear bumper so you can see the chrome from the side. I also blacked out the bowtie emblem on the front, and removed the one on the back. Shortly after I had the windows tinted 35%. I also added a white "MONTE CARLO" windshield banner, looks pretty nice. Just at the end of this summer I bought some new tires, Pirelli P-Zero Nero 235/50/18 and I would like to put in a good word on them! Highest rated ultra-high performance all-season tire available and they definitely live up to the statistics. Just recently I installed a K&N cool air intake, which adds a nice little roar to the engine compartment And my newest "addition" is niteshaded taillights, thanks to VHT.

My plan: Eventually, a set of the HID Halo headlights, HID foglights, new bigger chrome exhaust tips, JEGS electric exhaust cutout, and maybe a set of 20" wheels, black or chrome. Being a college student makes most of this extremely hard to afford, but spending money on my car is definitely a priority!

As soon as I figure this whole website out, I'll post some pictures and comments and whatnot. I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions for you all, as I absolutely LOVE working with my car, adding things here and there. As for now, I do have one question that's been an idea of mine for awhile...do the new Camaro SS wheels fit my model Monte Carlo?

Mike, Welcome to the forum and while your car is a priority, keep your college education a higher one.
