Nice.. Subtle and I think work better than the chrome. When I had my 97 all I wanted was boral tips. They look great, but are not worth the price. Got a cutout and left it open...

I'm going to do another coat tomorrow before I take pics since my hands were dirty when I put them on

Very, very nice! Now you need to cap it off (pun intended) with an alloy valve stem cover that matches the wheels. Not chrome, that would be gawdy.

I did this for my Porsche and added the same ones on my Audi. Only cost $15. It has a sleeve that covers the whole stem. I'm sure you could find something for the SS.

I see you upgraded your headlight to higher wattage. PLEASE check the wiring harness, I have seen people upgrade the bulbs to higher wattage and MELT the headlight wiring harness!!

OH the wheels look G-R-E-A-T!!

Thank you very much for the compliments

I already made sure the wiring would be safe before I upgraded.....the stock wiring is good to ~100 watts. I've been running these for four months without a problem.

Here are some more pics!








Oh, and I almost forgot.... I currently have 1Z Glanz wax on the car
