Custom Impala SS
The
Front of our 1996 Custom Impala SS features a custom front bumper cover,
fiberglass hood with 2 inch cowl- Induction, hand-fabricated hood
extension and grill shell, upper and lower polished billet grills, custom headlights and blue tinted corners

The
front lays out pretty hard to tuck the 22's a few inches and throw
sparks from the crossmember while dragging the frame at night

at the the shop.
This
custom Impala features a "retro" paint job similar to that of a 1957
Chevy Belair 4 door.

The
curves of the body really help to show of the pearl in the paint
![impala ss, custom inner fender wells, trailer fenders under hood](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-fender.jpg)
After
removing the front inner wheel wells to gain clearance for
the
wheels when aired out, we built custom fenders to cover the exposed
wheels under the hood. This helps keep the engine clean while
driving and protects from rocks being thrown up into the engine
compartment

![impala ss rear, shaved tail lights, taillights, impala ss with rollpan, custom spoiler](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-rear.jpg)
We
got rid of the rear bumper and installed a fiberglass rear rollpan
(with billet insert) in its place. We also completely shaved the tail
lights and replaced them with sheetmetal and (4) 14inch LED lights
![shaved tail lights on impala ss](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-shaved-tails.jpg)
The
tail light shave is completely seamless and contoured to the slight
curve of the rear of the body.
![custom impala ss, spoiler](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-32.jpg)
We
added a high-rake rear spoiler to finish off the rear body mods
![impala ss with shaved door handles](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-shaved.jpg)
We
shaved all four door handles for a sleek look and to add to the
coolness
factor
![impala ss with shaved wheel wells, trim](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-fender-trim-delete.jpg)
The
rear wheel-well trim was removed and then the recessed area behind the
trim was filled
![custom impala ss, shaved rockers](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-38.jpg)
The
lower rocker moldings were also shaved
![custom impala ss, shaved wiper cowl](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-wiper-cowl.jpg)
To
clean up the windshield we removed the windshield wipers and shaved the
wiper cowl. No more driving in the rain!
![custom impala ss, hood mirror](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-stainless-hood.jpg)
Under
the hood, we cut and installed a sheet of polished stainless-steel.
![96 impala ss, chrome lt1, billet lt1, show engine](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-engine.jpg)
The
engine in our custom Impala SS is decked out with tons of polished
billet aluminum and chrome along with the following
performance
upgrades: LS Coil Conversion to eliminate troublesome
OptiSpark, Ported & polished aluminum LT1 cylinder
heads, GMPP
1.6 ratio billet roller rockers, Comp Cams valve springs, Lunati
push-rods, ported intake manifold, Holley 52mm throttle body, hand
fabricated intake filer, SLP headers (with Jet -Hot coating),
PCMforLess Tune, CSR Electric water pump, and a few more things
![custom impala ss engine, 96 impala ss, chrome lt1, billet lt1, show engine](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-lt1-engine-led.jpg)
This
angle of the engine shows custom painted engine bay brace, Powermaster
Alternator, cool-flex hoses, Zoops power steering reservoir,
some extreme LED Lighting,
and a
few other choice goodies
![custom 96 impala door jams](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-door-jams.jpg)
The
custom paint paint flows into all four of the door jams. Put TVs in the
rear sail windows for all the "haters" out there!
![custom impala ss interior](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-interior.jpg)
The
interior is fully customized too. All four seats are covered
in
sky blue suede and black leather. The upper dash
features a
motorized skull that pops up on command to display the air suspension
pressures. The lower dash has been completely smoothed and
painted gloss black. Polished billet aluminum covers many of
the
interior panels
![custom impala ss dash](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-17.jpg)
This
Trenz "Leaping Impala" steering wheel is fully polished billet
aluminum, the steering column is painted to match the exterior of the
car, and the majority of the the drivers interior view is polished
billet aluminum.
![custom impala ss speedometer](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-41.jpg)
Even
the speedometer/tach gauge cluster is accented with polished stainless
steel
![Custom center console, impala ss](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-20.jpg)
The
center console in our custom Impala SS received some work too.
The console was stripped of all carpeting, smoothed and
painted
to match the exterior of the car. A custom automatic shift
lever
and "flaming ball" were fabricated especially for this car.
![custom impala console](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/ycc-impala-console.jpg)
Under
the lid of the console you can find the accessory control center to
turn on/off any of the air management system or accessories (TV's,
video, sound, lighting, etc.) throughout the vehicle
![custom impala ss door panel, fiber glass door panel, 96 impala](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-22.jpg)
We
reshaped and
fiberglassed
all four interior door panels before painting them to match
the rest of the vehicle. These were also accented with
polished billet aluminum
![custom impala ss door panel, fiber glass door panel, 96 impala](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-23.jpg)
The
rear doors were also reshaped and glassed
![custom impala ss trunk, impala subwoofers, impala speakers](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-26.jpg)
A
false floor was constructed in the rear of our Impala to flush-mount
the amplifier, auxiliary battery,
air
tank, air compressors, and air valves. Sky blue
suede was used on the center panel to tie it i with the interior of the
Impala.
The
Viair 480c dual-pack compressor kit was tucked away under a
3/8inch thick piece of Acrylic glass
![Impala ss extra battery, auxiliary battery](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-28.jpg)
This
panel of acrylic shows the auxiliary battery that is used to run the
air compressors and supply enough juice to the amplifier to make the
subwoofers pound
![impala ss custom subwoofer](https://www.yourcustomcar.com/image-files/thb-custom-impala-ss-ycc-40.jpg)
An
integrated LED light makes the sub enclosure glow at night
