And to those who like to point and laugh....go ahead but just remember everyone here bought this car because it stands out from the rest. I wanted my SVX to stand out from all the other SVX's out there. It's the same principle..im just more liberal. Also as far as the exhaust goes..its not done...im adding a second muffler to give it that Corvette ZO6 look. They wont be sticking out that bad when its done b/c they'll be on either side of the differential. So any comments or criticism welcome.....ideas too!
Criticism welcome, huh? OK.

I like the stripes. They are a little bit naff on a car that I consider more pipe and slippers than ricer racer, but the effect is nice and symmetrical, and suits the dark green.

Not a great fan of boomboxes, but I am a big music fan, so improving the audio[ICE?] is OK by me.

On a negative note, I must say that the standard exhaust blows. Yours does quite the opposite.

I am not going to comment on the racing stripes or the wing. But I was just wondering if you have felt a performance drop off becuase of the open elemnt filter in the engine bay. I ask because from the pictures it seems you have no heat shield and therefore are sucking VERY hot air from the engine bay. You dont have to be a car nut to know that sucking hotter air will hurt performance. But, i have heard that it does give it a deeper exhause note. Just curious.

I have a similar intake setup. The performance did go down when I installed it. If I could do it over, I would have stuck with the stock intake system. It does add a deep growl from the engine though.

might as well finish it

with leather seats by motorsport,

deep blue leather in tone with outer paint -offset a few shades, 10" width - leather stripes up the center of front and back seats.
5 star wheels, 17+, polished. aluminum dash kit.
calipers in yellow,

i always have a problem with the old lamp lenses up front, it just makes the car date back regardless of how well the reconditioning around them is performed. someone needs to find a solution to this issue.
