      What does common sense have to do with this hobby? We should all be as desisive as you and not need opinions ;)

      I like both and can envision both on the car with the hood closed. However, with the engine compartment taken into consideration, gun-metal with titanium bolts is a no-brainer. Too clean under hood for black.

      First off your wheels are silver.. Second they are a different style and third I had Forgelines before you..

      Sucka!

      Oh, and you GTO is in the April issue.. your welcome..

      Too funny.....
      You just knew you could not start a forgeline thread and me not say something.
      I gotta pimp those folks every chance I get, they are the best.
      Truefully, I can not decide which would look best on your car. I have gotten used to the blacked out look.
      Just hurry up, Year One Experience is coming soon.

      I think the carbon black with titanium would look killer. The flat finish of them would be a neat contrast to the super slick paint on your car. On the other hand the gunmetal seems to tie in with the rest of what you have done under the hood.

      With the gunmetal finish it will look too much like my car. ....but chances are they will never be seen together anyway.

      What I liked most about this car when you first got it was it's hard-edged nature. Whatever you choose, be careful not to make it too 'pretty' or the streetfighter image will be lost.

      Actually in Johnny's wheel story. Side profile and wheel close-up in regards to Forgeline.

      That way I get to be nice to two friends.. oh, there's another surprise for you in the front of the book

      Yea, I am hoping that attitude still comes though in the stance and tire size. To be honest the exterior will look exactly the same except for a normal cowl hood, deleted brake vents and the centers of these wheels being shinier (same color though)

      The interior will look much the same except for the Racepack track computer and some SW gauges.

      The engine bay is a huge change but the car needed it. You can have the "streetfighter" look and still maintain a high build quality. At least I hope so, I have a hard time building ratty stuff.

      The gunmetal is what it had and I liked the look. Going from the chrome bolts to the Ti ones will "de-bling" the wheels a bit.

      I like the black, but understood that the black can be a bit of a PITA to keep looking the same. Sort of like flat black paint on a car, it eventually gets shiny spots.

      My car may look "pretty" but nobody can say it has a lot of frills.. hell, except for power steering it has zero luxuries.. lol
