Did anyone else notice the A/C controls? That's a great spot for them. Other than that, not really diggin anything else. I like the inside though.

nice man i like the ac control the only thing i would change since you know how to fiberglass would the the screen i would put a big screen in to fill that whole spot up. and i would sand the ac control and air brush it with a cool matching color/design and stencile in the images on it like the hot/cold and the flow.

i had already though of that but i did not want to clutter with too big a screen, this way i keep it simple, i mostly use that screen for my rear view camera on video 1, video 2 is hooked up to my dvd player, the 10" screen for the trunk is for dvd & x-box

would love to post pictures of my truck its just not quite finished yet, need to wait till mid june, so all my parts get painted

I think this is the first LS, LT or any other base model submission that i actually like. I love the custom work. You didn't go overboard and it doesn't look like cheap work. Very clean and creative. I like the location of the ac controls and the 2 -Din set up you got going on in the dash. Very cool.

I'd get a body kit to complete the look, something simple, like a stock ss/sc. Also, I'm all about performance, so I gotta say you need more bolt ons...lol. Turbo baby!

Nice whip bro. To be honest, your car is too nice to have those stock bumpers on there. Upgrade to some ss/sc bumps like previously mentioned... All in all a clean car though.
