FIRST PICS EVER of my '95 SE

Post by Andrew88 »

When I first joined, I was told to put up pics immediately! Well I finally got around to it. It's definitely still a learning experience for me, as far as lighting, good shots, etc. Oh, and the car is FILTHY. So it can only get better from here. But for those who were dying to see my car at the first possible second (you know who you are), here goes.

SE supercharged? Very nice. Too bad my SE isn't the same. :lol:

You are right, it is a bit dirty, but that's ok. :wink:

Did you do all the red bits/black crosslaces? Or was that from a PO?

Thank you!! The red bits and black crosses were from a previous owner. The hood scoops, boost gage, and CD player were, as well. The only thing I did so far were the SSE tails.

i forgot...i also painted the grill black too...the mesh part used to be some grayish color, and in an attempt to imitate the SSE(i) grill, I made it body color as well!

Well aside from the dirty-ness, it looks good. I would probably do away with the stick-on scoops, but I think the red stripe fits nicely.

Nice Ride! :wink:

That car is pretty cool. I didn't know that interior color was available in 95. Looks cool. I like the 95 because it's a nice transition between 92-94 and 9(5/6)-99. You get the best of both worlds with the older style door panels, steering wheel, and a couple things. Then, the new things like interior colors and the cobra head shifter are thrown in. Check out some other stock interiors here and see for yourself. Very nice car overall! :)

that is a sweet car. I love the black interior, I'm jealous :sad: . CLEAN THAT SUCKER and do it some justice :angry4: . I also have to agree on the hood scoops, get rid of them. If anything you should put some hood vents on it from the trans am GTA (maybe from a junkyard or something) like what a few members here have done. It can look pretty sweet and still actually serve a purpose.

I dislike the hood scoops, but really LOVE the red accents! They look really sharp, IMO, and I love the black rims. Lucky find, SESCs are hard to come by!

Sweet car, I like seeing other cars with black laces... I think they make the car look more aggressive. Black laces FTW!
