Updated pics of Garfinkle's car..

During Thanksgiving break, I went over to Garfinkle's to drop off my 20b LIM and UIM to be reworked and took some pics of his car.. His new wheel center cap made a complete difference in look of his car.. I'm going to get some made for my car!

As always, I love his engine bay.. So clean you could eat off of it.

The wheels are still *** ugly! No matter how cool of a center cap goes on them. The only thing that can help those wheels is a crusher!
Other than that the car looks the same as the last time all the locals were stroking it Too much bling under there imo! Not enough contrast

Is the UIM and other engine parts polished or chromed? Engine bay looks fantastic!

Yes they are that bad. Why don't you see more of them? Because they are ugly. imo of course. To each his own but i have't seen any that are worse. On a driven car. Not the show DUBS and ****.

Sorry but truth hurts. And you should have expected this from the last time people posted his wheels. Trust me ..I am NOT alone in my negativity.sorry i like the car but the wheels are horid.don't mean to hurt anyones feelings

Sorry for the un-PC observation.

They aren't that bad?! They aren't that good either! I'm w/ Dave - those wheels look like wholesale ***, even w/ the rotor center caps! Bad wheels can make or break the look, and IMO, he could do much better than those. Didn't they go out of style during the Reagan administration? Anyway, as for the rest of the car, it's awesome!

Nice car. What intercooler and intake are in the car?

(Personal opinion, but those wheels look like they $250 Pep Boys specials and should not be on anything more expensive that a 1994 Chevy Cavalier.)
