For those asking what the body kit was, it's the Predator kit, availible here: http://www.bageco.com/mckkits.htm

My car is a 1991 Pontiac Firebird. It's a base model with very few options and the very slow 3.1L/auto combo. When I first got it, I didn't know much about cars, so I unfortunatly put a Ferrari Testarosa body kit on it.

For engine performance, I installed a Hypertech chip (worth it), ASP underdrive pulleys (worth it), and a Flowmaster muffler (not worth it). I had the car dynod with these mods (and 160k miles) and it put down 121rwhp. Yeah, not to impressive. Then I went on to modify the suspension and put on new wheels.

Here are some shots with the body kit removed and modified suspension:

Suspension mods are: KYB shocks/struts, Addco anti-sway bars, poly bushings, Suspension Techniques 1" lowering springs, Edlebrock lower control arms and panhard rod.
Plus chassis mods: Kenny Brown subframe connectors, 3 point tower brace, and lower chassis brace.

As you can see, it was in need of a paint job, so I took it to Custom Concepts in Oklahoma City last summer.

They kept it for close to a month since it needed so much work. Here's a few pics showing it almost completed.
