Team Abyss! Lookin' good with the uniform tint, too. Or... am I wrong? In some shots, your front windows look as dark as the rear, but now I'm not sure...

The body kit and spoilers look good in black! I'm no fan of those style alloy wheels, but your car makes them look good. I like it!You should head on over to grafxwerks.com to get some decals for it, such as badge overlays to turn the red on your Pontiac arrow, black, among other things.

Wheels aren't that bad. I've seen lots worse. Great GT. Black's the best color for it. Something they really did right... the body kit is subtle and looks really good. It's in great shape cosmetically. How's it run? How many miles? Welcome to the forum.

Thanks bud, I appreciate the compliments . She's got about 130,000 miles on her, so just getting broke in haha. It runs great, my friend has a 2009 scion tc 5 speed and he rode in it and said the vibe would dust it
