Free Changes to the Coupes

I've been wanting to do this for awhile, but haven't. Awoke this morning with an unusual amount of energy...so I swapped Rims on the Coupes. Whatta uall think...I don't why, but I always seem to get tired of looking at the same ole thing....I have a wierd need to change things.........









Definitely doesn't look like "Birdbirds Coupe" any longer!

Thanks for ur opinion...I'll probably just get different rims for the 96, eventually.

But I like the spiders on the 94 myself.

This reminds me when you had the koing unknowns on the 96.... I like it And the 94 really doesnt look like bigbirds coupe anymore... The rims help bring out the clear indicators and fog lamps which after you changed i wasnt feeling it cause it took away from the red and black theme but with those rims

The only thing im not so sure about is the red panel by the trunk... For some reason it just feels out of place with the tail lights havin the black boarder around them... Its just too much of that bright red... Maybe a Scepter Panel?

I have a Scepter panel, sitting here in the corner....It may go back on it, when I take a notion for different look....appreciate the comments.

The '94 looks good. I like the painted center panel for the rear lights but I think it would look better if you painted the mirrors red too. Both are clean .

Thanks! The Black mirrors are standard SE, as is the seats, black steering wheel, black shifter and window trim! So I won't be color matching them....and people know I love to color match!

the drags were good on the bright red coupe because bright red & black make a good theme ... without that, it doesnt fit ...

i still think the ADRs looked best on the 96

Thanks for ur opinion Lenny....I just got tired of looking at the ADR's....and I'm liking the Drags even less. I'll get something else for the 96 after I have it painted (same color)

I really like the Rims Bigbird has on his car!

not a big fan of the wheels on the 96....personally i loved the graphite ones you used to have on it
the 94 however looks awesome with the spiders....they fit the car perfectly!

i actually like the way the 94 looks right now... very bad ass. if only it had an RMM lip and not the taurus lip...

i'm sorry, i can't stand the taurus lip, i'll be brutally honest

is it just me though... or does the rake on the 94 look ridiculous?!

I like the spiders on birdie's coupe. I think it looks really nice.

Get some new rims for the 96, the black rims really doesn't fit the car.
