my sunfire pics
Wednesday, April 16, 2008 8:16 AM
Well this is how my car currently sits in my shop. Pretty much exactly as I've had it for the last two years. Everything is going to be changed on it over this year, 02 cav front end, 19's, D-Specs and Sportlines, new paint, reupholstered seats, new brakes. The list goes on and on! Got plenty of time for this so its going to be done right. I think my biggest dilemma is the body. I know I am going to be using a z24 bumper, I'm almost certain I'll be going with a wings west front lip, wings west side skirts, as for the rear end I'm a bit stuck. I thought maybe the rk sport sunfire rear lip, just worried that it may not flow right with the rest of the stuff. The goal is clean and simple, yet badass!! Any thoughts?

Yes they are sort of! A couple years ago I worked with the girlfriend of the guy that sells them on ebay. I just got a set from her. I never was too fond of the sunfire lights so I just wanted an easy fix to make them look better. Always wanted to do the cav swap though!!

good looking car but it would look better with a ECO swap / turbo in there





RIP JESSE GERARD.....Youll always be in my thoughts and prayers...

Thanks! The eco and a turbo are for sure going on the list!

I like it.

Nice and clean... Really REALLY clean .

I only don't like the brakes being red. Mine are black so I think thats why. But it doesn't look bad the way it is, I'm just biased.

The exhaust manifold takes away from the otherwise amazing looking engine bay. For the look, I'd snag a cheap used header, and polish it up like the valve cover and intake. That would be amazing.

Don't change it up too much. Get the yelids redone the right way, and paint your door handles and outer mirrors to match the paint. Get a 00-02 Gt front bumper, and 95-99 Z24 skirts, and it'll be the sex....
As for engine, definetly get the eco and boost it.

How about making the engine more bad-ass instead of trying it make the exterior look that way?

Yeah cause there's a rule now that says everyone has to build their cars for race, and nobody can build show cars anymore.[/sarcasm]

I think it looks pretty good. Reminds me a lot of my car because of the wheels/drop. Makes me want to paint mine a bright solid color.

Thanks everyone! Kinda funny the other day I was driving home in my winter beater and I saw a white say 99 z24. I thought damn white 3rd gens look awesome! Then I thought wait a second I have a white one! Well I really appreciate all the comments, she's a work in progress. I am probably going to rip the aem decal off it but the stickers on the side windows need to stay, they advertise my detail shop!

Love it, I have always been a fan of white on white! White wheels on white cars almost always look perfect, only suggestion, paint the drums black, leave the rest of it be. Thats my only suggestion, otherwise you seem to have excellent taste in modding. Keep up the good work!

I agree with Wade, why not put all that money into the actual performance of the car instead of cosmetics. I dont have room to say much because im rolling in a stock 2.4 (i guess atleast its not a 2.2), but if i were to put more $ in the cav it would be making it move quicker and handle better. But the car looks nice.
