i agree that i dont really like the blue but its not my car so if you like it keep it...get some headlight and tail light covers and it'd be looking pretty good.

Yeah, that's next on the list. Pinchin' pennies to get the stuff, so might be a bit. Talk about strapped for cash... :(

Reminds me of that song by eiffle 65, Blue or something I dont remember.
EIFFEL 65 LYRICS
"Blue (Da Ba De)"
Yo listen up here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees
Is just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and hisself
And everybody around
Cos he ain't got nobody to listen to
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I have a blue house with a blue window.
Blue is the colour of all that I wear.
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too.
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue.
Blue are the people here that walk around,
Blue like my corvette, it's standing outside.
Blue are the words I say and what I think.
Blue are the feelings that live inside me.
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
Inside and outside blue his house
With the blue little window and a blue corvette
And everything is blue for him and hisself
And everybody around cause he aint got
Nobody to listen to
I'm blue da ba dee da ba die...
I'm blue (if I was green I would die)

lmao!!!
dude, I just got seranaded! (sp?)
Thanks for all the replies though guys... good and bad. I AM diggin the blue though... don't know why, but I'm stuck on that damned color! But yeah, next comes head / tail light blackouts, then a bra 'cuz I do so much highway driving my bumper's starting to look like crap. After that I'm thinking about doing some engine work. Any recommendations for a 170,000 mile 3.4 (Aside from "Get a V8")?

first off nice, your car loks pretty clean. I don't dig the blue but who cares lol, it's your car not mine.
I think that black rims might overdo it, black rims do look good (like black ZR-1's with the polished lip on my friend's 95, or the way the same rims woudl probably look on my car) but since your car is like 98% black already I think making it completely black might look bad.
For the engine, with that many miles you might want to rebuild it or pick up a spare engine... screw a v8 swap unless you LOOOOOOOOOOOVE the car because buying a z28 or t/a would cost a lot less, be a lot less hassle, and be a lot easier. you may want to check out www.fullthrottlev6.com for some GM v6 performance ideas.

Thanks Xeno :twak:
I'd love to do a rebuild, but am hesitant because 1. It's my only car, and 2. Never rebuilt a motor before.

Cuda, when you said black rims, thought you would mean the whole things. A good color to accent black would be gunmetal rims. Is it just me, or does your friend's maro look like a big acura integra?
There's different ways to design your car like if you're going for a muscle car look(chrome with white lettering), street racer look(cuda's friend), last but not least exotic look(corvette stuff). keep the blue, although the radio's face plate was a bit much. Why get blackouts? It's look's great as black and blue as it is(don't quote me on that)
This thread has just inspired me to add something to my sig...Every time you listen to me, jesus kills a kitten, it's true, my friend told me

Saw a hot ass 97+ Z28 all black with blackouts... I 'bout shat myself when I saw it... gotta get the blackouts. lol
And, the stereo face got hit 'cuz it's on it's way out, and pretty much just to see if I could do it without F'ing up the functionality of it. Plans are in place to get a new one.

the clear corners will accent chrome rims better IMO.. also not digging the blue.. but as everyone said.. your car. i used to have a red and black thing goin, but i did away with the red and went with chrome inserts on the back, taillight covers, and a 3rd brakelight blackout that lights up the word "Camaro"..
