Dood I have nothing to say to you...
But the **** is about to hit the fan
EDIT: but I give you props for accually doing something to the engine
Also If you lost the wing wheels and lettering it would look alot better IMHO

Well Thanks for being so honest!!
The wing, well I wanted something way different, and you have to believe me that it was not one of the Fast&Furious thing, I was actually trying for a LE-MANS look, as I am real Big fan of that.
The Wheels, not my favorite, but hey I got them cheap. $400 with brand new tires.
Lettering - Hey I got to represent!! I thought mine was conservative, everyone out here has Flowmaster all over their windows. I did not put my mod stickers outside.
EDIT: the picture on page 2 makes the wing seem that is way higher than the car, it is not, I just a really weird angle on it.
Anyone Else?

I give you credit for doing something typically out of the ordinary to an F-Body. Not something I would personally do to my own car but I do think it looks very good for those who like and are after that kind of appearance.

I hope I didn't come off too mean 
If you wanna go for the lemans look I would have done everything else first like racing wheels slamming it GFX etc.
and the wing last that way it doesn't come off as ,and i can't believe i'm saying this, "ricer".

50/50. I agree and disagree with some things. I totally understand what you are talking about with the le-mas look. I went for the exotic look and a lot of people actually see it when they see it in person. So I believe in person you car would look better. But just having stripes on the roof i dont like, it just doesnt flow right. I agree when someone else said slamming it with ground effects, rims and then the wing would make it look better. I put my wing on before my rims and it looked like crap. The first thing you need to do is save for a set of nice rims. But my main question is how does the exhaust sound. I want to run true duals off my hooker lt's with x-pipe and borla ZR-1's. I love the way borla catbacks sound on the camaros. Is there any way you can get a soundclip of the exhaust. Or do you at least recommend it. I give you credit for being different and at least having engine work to back up your outrageous car.

Not my cup of tea!
The wing is hideous in my opinion; the stripes on the roof dont' flow at all; the rims are ugly; and I personally have never liked that hood. Sorry but I'm being honest. I give you props and going your own route and expressing it!
. Good luck with future mods!

If you like it, that is what counts... but the thing is, you came on here asking us to rate it.
So here goes:
I hate the wing, actually it isnt the wing that bothers me, it is how freaking high the wing is.
I hate that hood, but I have seen worse.
I don't think the rims compliment the car, but I have seen worse.
I think the car would look better without the lettering, but I have seen worse.
I HATE the stripes, they look really lame in my opinion.
On the plus side, I think the car has potential if you totally re-think things over. Hope I wasn't too harsh.

1-10, I give it a 3
The wing is very close to rice, if not rice. I like the hood, not to shabby. The wheels........well I think you could do better with some 5-spokes. If the car is really fast well then it's okay. I think you should lose the wing and those wheels.
My $0.02

as someone else above said "it's not my cup of tea". now when rating a camaro or firebird i always start with a 8. now the wing was way to big and aggressive for me so that takes 2 points off and the hood well , im not to much of a fan for that style of hood so that takes off another point and the rims and tires i do like so that adds 2 points. so i'd honestly rate it a 7. you should have left the wing for the ricers cus no one's going to let you hear the end of it. but hey it's your own thing, when i get done with my car it's going to look the way i want it to not the way anyone else wants it to. so if you like it, thats what matters.
