You know what, that is all that matters. That you love your car. Do to it what ever makes you happy. Not everyone is going to like the same things that you do. So, when you ask for opinions, you are going to have to expect to get some that you don't agree with. Try not to take it personal

**transamgirl17** · 04-16-2011, 01:42 PM

i'm not trying to make it personal its just getting annoying hearing the same thing over and over again. if its already stated, there no need to state it again.

Well, if you go with the Lambo doors, look for a set that has hydraulic struts like the ones in your trunk to assist with opening and supporting the doors while open. I dunno if the ones out there come with the struts or high-tension springs.

**transamgirl17** · 04-17-2011, 08:08 PM

they come with struts. i've been working with my local dealer so to speak that does after marketing work to cars and we've found multiple kits all with hydraulic struts. thank you!

**cammed goat** · 04-17-2011, 08:26 PM

OK. Good to hear.

With your blue underglow, I think a set of 30th Anniversary TA rims on your car would look awesome!

+1! Didn't even think about that!

**jiveass** · 04-18-2011, 11:41 AM

in my opinion, the rims are really the only thing that i would change....if you want vertical doors, go for it...dont let other people's opinions dictate what you do to your car.....i happen to think they arent bad lookin....would i put them on my car? no, but not because of how they look....

and yes the rims are being changed no matter what, but i'm keeping them as a set for like the fall/winter/early spring when the weather is still shitty and theres still kinda salt on the road so i don't ruin my new rims. and i didn't think the vertical doors looked that bad either. it just matters on what you like. and i'm realizing a lot of people on here especially the older ones like the cars in a classic or original version, which is completely fine but don't bash my car because i have mods on it.

**WICKEDLS1** · 04-19-2011, 04:55 AM

you are going to have a hell of a time finding a good set. and if you do they are going to be rediculously priced

**HOBS** · 04-19-2011, 08:42 AM

Nice lookin T/A. Is it just stock suspension? Have you thought about switching the hood to a WS6 hood?

**TLS_Addict** · 04-19-2011, 11:58 AM

Like said, its your car and do with it what you want.

One thing that I am actually impressed with is your ability to express your thoughts on paper (well screen). It is something that is lost with most people on here and they are not 16. Sentence structure and grammar go a long way. Perhaps the first letter in the first word of a thought you could make big but I am impressed so far with your communication skills. Most of the mid 20s guys on here cant make a complete thought on here without looking stupid. lol

Lambo doors on are on more than LAMBOS! For gods sake, anyone remember some ole gullwing Mercedes that have them? How about a Deloreon? I am not a fan of Lambo doors on the F-body but I have seen worse. Some folks paint the car yellow and the door jams are still red.....I mean come on, what is worse. Someone who paints like that or lambo doors? How about those people with stripes, and huge ass wings, hoods bumpers.....etc I call it rice but hey, its what you want and if you are happy with it thats on you.

She is 16 for gods sake! Let her enjoy her car the way she wants. Its not often that a girl, more so a younger girl, that is interested in this type of car. She isnt looking to paint it pink or put a Rainbow Bright pain scheme on it. She has some rims (not my favorite but I have seen worse), blue undergrlow (again not my favorite but have seen worse) and it looks "ok", and she has a few other plans for it.

Kudos for her not driving a Civic with a stupid f^cking butterfly on the rear window.

You must live in Chicago Heights

I would strongly reconsider 20" rims. 1) they are heavy which is going to cause more rolling mass which in turn will make the car slower and 2) everything you choose will be very expensive; rims and tires.

One thing you are forgetting about the movie F&F is it is all rice, none of which is in here. I don't recall seeing any TransAms, Corvette's, Camaro's, or GTO's in that movie

I used to have a neon license plate 15 yrs ago when I was in HS...so yeah I get it.

A nice hood would look awesome I went to a ws9 hood from trufiber to bbe different and it looks amazing to me anyway and oe wheels have a great selection with tires at a great price I love mine and r1 concepst for rotors crossed drilled and slotted that are zinc coated so no rust Good luck and enjoy your car Super charger only if u use it It sounds like you don't so I would go exhaust and appearance mods but the main thing is having fun with it and enjoying it Shocks too helps a lot Bilsteen

yeah but i'm not exactly worried about speed, it'll still be faster considering my car has 22" rims on right now. and yeah but i've got daddy's credit card so i think i'll be okay.

i wasn't referring to f&f with the cars we have around here..... i was meaning thats how it would look when me and my friends are all hanging out.

yeah the supercharger isn't really for me, its for my dad when he drives my car. but i use my car for speed every once in a while. mostly to see where my car ranks compared to the others around here.

yeah getting my point across is def not my problem, the problem is attitude which i am trying to hold back on here. and yeah the lambo doors i don't think look that bad, i know a lot of people aren't fans but i like them. and yeah i wouldn't be caught dead in a Civic let alone having a dumb butterfly sticker on the rear.
