I'm not new to the forums, but I haven't ever posted anything. My name is Ryan and would like to share a few pics of my car. I would like to thank everyone here for ideas on my project. Tell me what you think about the car.

Ryan,

Your car looks great! :icon996: what size are the tires and wheels?

[Rybar]

Love the car, and the paint!! Looks killer!!

I think we have a few similarites, 1st gen pro-touring Camaro, looks like yours is a Candy Apple red with black stripes. And were both named Ryan!!

Hilarious, love your car though, it's awesome! Is it a candy colour? Or a base clear?

nice color choice and welcome to the site!

The color the Dupont Hot Hues "Hot Poppy." It is a base clear paint. Originally I wanted to go with Candy Apple Red but after learning a little more about the candy colors I changed my mind. I am very pleased with the way this color came out though. The wheels are 17x7 and 18x10 Intro Pentias. I went with some 235 45 Nitto 555's on the front, and on the back 305 35 Nitto drag radials. I'm getting a new gas tank made currently so its a little higher than usual. I have more plans in the future as funding allows.

Nice job!

I also love the color, and like what you've done with the tire/wheel combo.

How do you like those seats? Are they hard to get in and out of?

[TexasKidd]

Thanks for all the compliments. I'm always open for suggestions. The seats are a little tight on my hips, and my knee hits the steering wheel when i go to hit the brakes. Looks like its time for a tilt column. Nothing I can't deal with. Otherwise, I love the seats. I'm thinking of installing a 6 point cage. Anyone know of a good pre fabbed cage? Anyone know about Mad Man Racing in Houston? A buddy of mine said he could possible get me a deal from them. THX

Very Nice Ride. Can you tell me what you paid for the seats and where you bought them?

Thanks
