This is my first car and i love it since these pictures have been taken i have painted my wheels silver and the exhaust tubing black to conceal it i have a 350 with a 4 bolt main that i am planning on dropping in some time over the summer but first i have to build it up beefy befor i do, i have long tube headers and an x-pipe exhaust system with some flowmaster 40's and magnaflow tips let me know what you guys think about it... i cant stand all the rich kids who have there mommy and daddy just go buy them somthing new and shiney, old cars for kids is becoming a lost art and i refuse to be a statistic of that

Are you talking about the dark grey you see on new Camry? That's a nice color.
