The Chrome Door Handles are available through your local Chevrolet Dealer! They are the same door handles that are used on the 07 - 09 Chev Aveo ( 4-Door ) and Saturn Vue !

Cost $117 Canadian Funds and come as a set of 4. Easily installed, but I had my Dealer do it for me. They look awesome especially with the Defenderworx Chrome Gills. :party0048:

Well, my IBM 1LT is still in the works, probably won't get it in till October or possibly November, but when I do get it, I'll be sure to post some pics.

Until then, I'll stick to the IBM threads and stare at everyone else's blue bombers haha. It is an amazing color. It looked sick on my dad's old Trans Am, and it looks sick on the Camaros.

Well thats why I made this thread to help out not just myself but others so that they get more pics to look at until they get their car. I'm in the same boat as you until my car comes in hopefully by november. I will post two pages worth of pics so that people have alot of pics to look at with alot of diff. angles, shades, backgrounds, times of day, and some night shots.

At night IBM looks pretty much like a black car. It's only when light plays off the surface that you see the hints of deep blue. And the type and color of the light source makes a definite difference on how the blue looks.

You'd almost need a studio where you can play with different temperature light sources to get those "glamour" types of shots you see of other colors. Florescent lights look different than sodium vapor, looks different than mercury vapor (street lights). I'd like to see what this color looks like under halogens.

I had IBM once - about four or five years ago...it wasn't pretty. It made my stomach cringe and I felt like I was gonna hurl. Every five minutes I'd go and see if there was any improvement, but to no avail. It was also very uncomfortable - made my back-side fall asleep. It got me all sweaty and such. It was then that I realized "Hey, maybe I'm lactose-intolerant!" And to this day, I don't think I ever had an Irritable Bowel Movement worse than that day!

Sorry, I couldn't resist

IBM and RJT are my favorites by far. Great shots.

I posted this up in the IBM thread too, but here's a series of photographs I posted up a while back:

I drove down to a friends in Redding, California to visit for Christmas, and took a few pictures along the way. Hopefully some of you might like them.

First, sort of related - my new PC. Please note the color (yes, it's IBM)


Another of the PC from the front

Now for the trip. First part of the trip was around the northern part of the Olympic Penninsula. It was cold (31-35) and foggy, but the roads were not icy at all. I stopped first at Crescent lake.









Continued driving west until I hit the coast, and stopped at Ruby Beach. First had to test out the telephoto lens.





Not far south, I had to stop at this pullout to take some shots. Some of these turned out REALLY nice.













Further down the coast in Washington...



I hit 2000 miles just north of Astoria



The car had definately accumulated some dirt by the time I got to Redding.







And, driving up I5 today...figured I'd show those that live out east what a real mountain looks like (Mount Shasta).

I don't think the color selection is that great - white, black, silver, red, etc... to me, the only really original colors were the ABM & Yellow. We need something like Jetstream Blue or the Orange metallic that's on the Corvettes. Something that sticks out in the parking lot when you come out of the store - a standout in the crowd. the Synergy green is different, but a darker green would be even better....
