What I plan on doing is filling in the chevy logo (red) then black, also putting in steel vale stems finished with gunmetal blowing that I bought. I think it will finish it off. Thanks again. Mj

Looks very good! No doubt - a lot of work, but I think its worth it.

That exhaust is fantastic too, by the way...

Default Thanks

Thanks everyone , yea it's a lot of work, but satisfaction of how they look made it well worth the time. I'm gonna do a homemade lower front valance as well as a custom lower grill. I'll post pics soon. Bought the grill material (12" x 4') for $18 on eBay . Can't wait to see it when I'm done. I did a " Photoshop " of the car and it looks Awsome, but I'll only post the real picture. Thanks again. Mj

^^this!!

It looks really nice. When I saw the very first pic a few days ago, I didn't understand what you painted, until you posted the side view of your car with before and after. I thought you had just repainted the black areas on your already black wheels.

I was in NC and went to Dale E chevy. They had a set of wheels and tires from Dale Jrs car for sale ( they took them offs and put diff on his Monte, well they were only asking 500 for rims n tires BRAND NEW ( have the receipt ) so I bought them on the spot and they put them on my wife's Monte right away I. Sold the old tires n rims to one of the mechanics there. I swear '!!!I even have pics of his specially made 4x4Chevy they tricked out for him before he even seen it. I'll get the pics from my wife. Was pretty cool. Mj.
