Default check out the new paint and rims

I bought this 1995 bonneville w/126000 miles for $1600 on Craigslist about a month ago. It was a completely stock 3800 series II w only a cherry bomb on the exhaust. I bought some 16" chrome rims w/new tires for $600 and put them on.

Then about a week later I was rear ended by a 16 y/o kid and the insurance company paid way more than enough to fix and paint it.
It was painted black w/metallic pewter to add extra metallic look to the paint. Got it done at Earl Schieb in Garden City. Eal Schieb did a great job and great price.

Also Have an Alpine 15" type R 2000 watt sub in a obcon godzilla box, an Alpine 1800 watt MRD-m1000 amp, and lots of dynamat for the trunk. This insn't installed yet because I need a cap and some work done first.

Curious, how much did you pay for the paint job? I'm looking at getting the same kinda thing done to mine.

That paint job looks awesome! Did they paint under the badges, behind the headlights, under the door handles, etc? It looks pretty solid. It'* kind of weird, but I think your rims would stick out if it were not for the exhaust tip. It looks really good!

Car looks great. I agree with the others on getting the tint and tails.

I am also curious on how much the paint was, as I could use paint.
