Thumbs up Pics of my new car...new rims...99 tailights...Also $40 99 tailight conversion

I purchased my baby about 2 months ago, and believed I posted a pic on the wheels forum when I got the new wheels. Anyways its 1993, automatic , 33k miles, 18" Enkei Aegis wheels, and just recently did the 99 tailights my self. I still have the stock wheels for sale for $300 plus shipping, 9.5/10 condition, theirs a post on the fs section with pictures, email me at pureitalian43@yahoo.com. I will also convert anyones tailights for $40, you have to pay for shipping to me and shipping back. I GURANTEE in 3 days the tailights will be on their way with a tracking number emailed to you and if not the conversion is FREE minus shipping. Email me at pureitalian43@yahoo.com if your interested. Plans for the car are dp and cb next. Anyways here are some pictures, any comments and or suggestions are welcomed. BTW After feed/c-west body kit goes on, it will be painted 2002 corvette electron blue.

Looks good..

Did you do the DIY 99 spec. did you size it to the 99specs?
reason I ask, is because they look kinda big..

Rims look good, Reminds me of the C Harts I wanted long ago.
Should of had the Rims staggered.. Larger lip in the rear.

All you need is a Front LIP.

Thanks guys on all the compliments. Actually the paint is bad, but the camera is really bad to. The front bumper has a lot of rock ships and their are a few on the hood. Its not like its really notciable but I want everything perfect. And my absolute favorite color is the 2002 electron blue, so eventually it will be painted that. The Vette is def. faster, I am bone stock right now so it beats me pretty good. Im happy to hear cb and dp make a big difference on the automatic, I want to do that than start upgrading the ecu for the bigger things to go in.

Yeah, my paint is decent, but the camera makes it look a lot better than it is too. That color you've chosen is a slick color too, should look good on the car

If I ever paint mine I've thought about a blue too, but I'm not sure how it would go with my red interior.
