I don't like the stripes on the hood, it appears the bird is too far back away from the front of the hood, ...
Don't care much for the stripes on the side either, ...
But of course, I like the wheels, but don't know if they really work well with the white IMO, ...

Good job on doing yer own new thing tho!

awesome car
i dont have a firebird but one thing i thought would be cool is a modern smokey and the bandit car.
-black car
-ws6 hood/spoiler
-big gold chicken on the hood
-simmons or fikse fm5 wheels with gold spokes and silver lip
-and let gmmg do it with a c5r block and full exhaust and custom embroidered interior

might be the baddest car ever or the ultimate redneck machine.

I think it looks good. I really like the graphic on the sides. Where did you get them?

Actually this past year at the T/A nats there was a "Bandit" black and gold
T/A.The only thing that I didn't like was the pinstriping.These 4th gen Birds don't have the evident body line that a pinstripe can follow and still look good.
Other than that IMO ,nothing looks better than the black and gold combination on a T/A

I cut them myself.I can't advertise on this site since i am not a sponsor.I took part of the "Bird of Prey" design that I made but thinned it down and then cut off the small part of the other wing and the "chicken head".I still
haven't been able to come up with a good looking Firebird head yet but when i do i will be putting the entire "Bird of Prey" on both sides.Thanx for the reply.

That car has been there the last two years. I thought it was a little overdone myself. Especially the lousy painted graphics that were carried over onto the top of the Vortech Supercharger.

I forgot all about under the hood.Yeah it was a little overdone.Oh well,looking forward to the nats next year.Are you going to the Firebird show in Michigan?
I think they are calling it "Nesting of the Birds".June 24th-26th . From the looks of the flyer , it will be hosted by Cabela's on their property.If you were a participant in the nats ,i think the flyer was in the goody bag.
