What do you guys think?
What would you guys think If I added 4th gen 17x9.5(front) and 17x11(rear) TT's? and black stripes all the way down the bumpers. Or a deep grey or silver two tone fender up for the front (top bumper-windsheild).
Thanks in advance.
Matt

TT2's?? No no no. They are so 'me too'; I have TT2s. hey, me too! I still think all your car needs is the 82-84 simple wing spoiler. Better to be understated & fast than overstated & slow (like any ricer)
Pick one project and finish it before you start another!

No, they are only good on certain cars, and yours is not one of them. Fix that dirty engine.

I think you should keep it the way it is. The car looks nice as is. And the wheels that are on it now look great and go well with that color.

NNooooooooooooooooooo. You have PONTIAC!!!!
IMO, the turbo bump hood (or whatever you call it) is still the best looking hood they put on those cars.

i'll be honest, the five spoke wheels that came stock on the 3rd gen T/A's (like this: http://tacreationsusa.com/images/Wheels/8586TA.jpg ) are one of my favorite designs, stock or aftermarket. i just love 'em. if you were to go with new wheels, that's what i'd do. as far as the rest of the car goes, for appearance, i'd maybe do a small cowl hood, like 2", and call it a day. firebirds are naturally sexy and i don't think you can do all too much to make them look better. just my opinion. i'd definately stay away from stripes though.

i still say... - 85-90 formula bumpers
- "turbo buldge" hood
- 85-92 firebird taillights
- 91-92 style aero wing.
and thats it, it'll look perfect.
something like this...

Kasey you have no idea what im talking about.
Im not talking about hockey stripes or pewter.
Just because I want TT2's doesnt mean im coppying any one, because then everyone would be coppying each other because everyone has them.

You got good wheels. A wing is what you need.

Im with them on this one matt, I dont think TTs would look good on that car, I think a simple wing and fix the body work and what not would make the car look so much better!
