    Default New guy from conyers

    Hey guys, the names Colby.

    I live in conyers.

    Was referred to importatlanta by Chad Burdette.

    I don't own an import car, but as with a lot of people here i have a passion for cars/trucks.

    My current vehicle is a 1998 chevy s10 reg cab 2.2 5 speed. It is fully bagged, 5-link backhalf, tubular arms, drop spindles, 1/2" valves, 1/2" lines, 10 gallons of air.

    Here are some pics of the truck, i think chad might have posted this pics on this forum before? if not here they are.











    Sold both sets of c6's, had to buy some stuff for the truck, had a set of zq8's but curbed them and bent them. and now rocking some 18" wheels that need to be sold!

    Fuck Chad. Those wheels look great on your truck. The black ones, not so good.

    Did you ride through town last night? Later, QD.

    man, all i can say about those gto wheels, is i need to try them and see if they'll fit. i know i will need a spacer, but without trying them i wouldnt know the exact measurements, and im like you, i hate wheels that stick in or out.

    are those gto wheels 18"? they'd sure help the look of the truck out for sure. and maybe i can get rid of just these WHEELS, and swap my tires to a set of gto wheels

    I was up there last night with a blue Toyota wagon and a multi-colored Eclipse. Seems I may have seen your truck ride through there once. Later, QD.

    Well next time (whenever that is) stop in and say what's up. I'm either in a lowered burgundy Grand Am or an old ass Civic (1979).

    Welcome, I think I saw your truck in my neighborhood a couple of days ago, I live in Bristol Woods. If that was you, your truck looks very nice.

    Bagged trucks are NOT old school. Just straight up dropped or hydraulics. Later, QD.

    thanks.

    How do you guys think a black bowtie would look on my truck?

    ive been considering re-doing my front lights since they have faded some, and also considering painting the bowtie black also since i have plenty of other black accents, my tails are super dark and shiney, markers are blacked out, mirrors are black, door handles are black, wheels, and will have a black valance soon as i need to replace mine.

    I think it would look better than the gold, but if it were me and i had the cash i would get rid of the stock grill completely and put an aftermarket grill in

    I am a huge fan of the stock grille. never would i swap to a cheap aftermarket chrome or anything like that. The only thing im going to do to this grille is repaint it, and put the flush billet inserts.

    maybe one day swap to a noma front, or envoy front, but im not really a fan of them either, as they are played out.
