1994 Impala Project

This is my first attempt at a "custom" car.

1) The cars suspension was lowered, disk brakes, new rims/tires.
2) Dashboard reworked, DVD player being put in dash and on back of seats.
3) Carbon fiber added to interior.
4) Body painted black with color shifting paint flames.
5) Carbon fiber door handles, window frames, Impala SS logo’s.

Hope you enjoy!

Re: 1994 Impala Project

Lookin nice man! I suggest you put bigger wheels the the stock ones on it though, the stock wheels aren't that big. I don't even think they would measure up to 18" in scale.

Just my opinion, but I think it would look sweet with a set of Iroks from Pegasus hobbies.
