they are stock and they are 15" hah

and another thing is that im 6'2" so i see the chips every time i get in the car haha. I am considering the black stripes w/ the black lettering for the bumper. The lights are extremely foggy Im polishing them up tomorrow as well as my 3rd brake light.

where can i find some good rims?

AmericanMuscle.com is one of my favorite sites for most things. Rims aren't cheap by any means but damn they do a lot for the car If your lights don't polish up to your expectations it's just easier to buy a new set. Mine were cracked so I didn't even bother with polish.

Btw I'm 5'7" so I can see the roof, but I can't get a good look at it

If I were you man I would save up money and have go to a shop to have the stripes painted on instead of using vinyl. But thats just me.

For wheels look around on craigslist you can find some of the stock gt bullits going for about $250-400, thats what I have seen. Those would be an upgrade from the stock sixxer wheels. And whenever you get so money flowing in then go out and buy the ones you want.

I think i would go with the 8" stripes, personally i think the 8" ones look better on this body style and the 12" look better on the newer ones. and wheels would make your car look a ton better but they aren't cheap at all I have 18" Saleen style rims that i bought off of americanmuscle.com and they made the car look a ton better than the stock.

you can also go with 10" if youd like
you can get it painted or i believe its stangmods that has the 10" vinyl.
i personally would go with paint.
