Here are the pics of the rear rotors and all hardware painted platinum silver to match the rims and body paint!!! I also, painted the hubs on the rotors and the center plate on the rears and the same on the front so no rust would form

Just put in the Pacesetter Short Throw Shift, I didnt want too extreme of a drop, plus I couldn't adjust the height of the shaft too much due to the CAT. I didnt want to cause any problems with gears. So I just kept the Polyurethane Shift Bushing the same height as OEM. So, far just put a couple of hours on the new STS so it is still firm, had to get used to the closer gear spacing now. But has far as driving seems like a smoother power band now, no more wasted rpm's while shifting between gears with the OEM shifter. As you can see I just kept the OEM shift knob and Shifter boot also, just like the classic look in my opinion

Just replaced bulky OEM sideview mirrows with a 93 GXE model, had them painted platinum silver to match the body paint also. So the look now is even more sleeker. Will have some pics up soon.
