    I got my Century back from the painter's a couple of weeks ago, and I've been too busy driving it to take good pictures until tonight. :)

    I am very happy with how it came out; it's not a show car but it's a super nice driver and I've been doing just that with it! Since my truck unexpectedly died last month, it's now my daily driver.

    It's basically stock, with a few minor changes so far. I moved the front bumper in 4", and cut the tips off proportionally. The wheels are Torque Thrust II knockoffs, 17x9 and 17x8, purchased on Ebay with tires already mounted.

    Next I need to do some interior work, a stereo, and A/C before summer comes.

    Kendall,very nice.Paint looks great.Looks sharp with the wheels.If it's the same guy I'm thinking of on ebay,he gives a good deal with the tires and wheels.Gutsy call on the finish of the wheels.I probably would have gone with chrome,but you made the right choice.Sets the car off nicely.Is that powder coated silver? Good luck,and I'm glad your enjoying the ride.Tom.
