Agent47 mirrors - you can sand and color match - much nicer than the stock truck mirrors

Performance? Styling?

either one. my car has no show right now, its all go! well, except for the custom carbon fiber shifter boot and console lid i had made a while back.

klaw, line locks are a good idea, however, i would prefer any brand other than granatelli, no offense. :nice: may have santa get the set that darkfire installed from PMP/jegs.

agent 47 mirrirs are a must do for S197s, IMO. only problem is that they are just over the $200 limit :( also, sonce my car is black, the flat black would not be bad. it would match the rest of the trim until it could be painted later. good idea!

The line lock "kit" is two solenoids, four steel braided brake lines, and a cheap switch with long leads. I looked at a Hurst solenoid and it looked identical (other than color) to the GMS ones. I'm betting that all the solenoids are sourced from the same supplier. It's hard to screw up brake lines and I didn't use the GMS switch so not too worried about GMS on this one. Took forever to get here though - it was backordered last summer for almost two months.

Line locks are really nice to have - especially with a manual trans. The gold anodized solenoids add a little color and interest under the hood too. At shows I get a lot of people wondering what they are. I've seen more than a few guys pointing at the solenoids and whispering to their buddy, "he's got a supercharger - and nitrous too!" :rolleyes:
 
Steeda has some decent looking dress up stuff for the interior. MGW Also has some goodies for the interior. Shorty antenna also looks good on our cars.
