Talking 2002 Firehawk

I have just recieved notice from the dealer that my 2002 Black Firehawk is arriving sometime next week. I am really excited to get it to see how it compares to my L. What do you guys think?

Of the five times we raced, I am happy to report I beat him to the finish line 3 times. The first time I lined up at that day was against him. It was fun, I even got him to redlight! I beleive his mods were 3.73s, complete exhaust, and a lid. Nice looking car, though.

It was also the first day I had the chip and Brian_K helped me take off my hitch and spare tire. Not only did the truck have tons more hp, but a lot less weight too! I was used to stock PLUS 3 sandbags and another spare tire in the bed.

I hope you can download them, I haven't been able to and I never saw the vids!

That Firehawk is sweet! I especially like the way the front license plate emblem lights up along with the blue foglights. Smooth looking to be sure. Never seen one up here in Northern Cali...gotta keep my eyes peeled.

he ordered blue foglight covers, and had a sticker made to go inside it with the shape of the firehawk cut out..

he bought the clear license plate cover online somewhere (try www.ls1.com) painted it black with blue vinyl on the bird and "firehawk" above it. then we put 2 blue neon tubes behind it.
we also lined everything with reflective silver vinyl.. it helped.

Clonetek,
Your friend did a great job with the foglight mod. I thought my lighted logo looked good. Did it come with the blue stripes painted on? Really looks great.
