I'm going to say NO WAY on the spoiler. Leave the WS6 spoiler.

I love the mecham hood, but the WS6 hood looks really good as well, so it comes down to what you like the most. Lime green stripes, though???

that spoiler is absolutly hideous and ruin the flow and lines of the car. The mecham hood is nice, but the quality is crap qand the fitment is worse. Have you looked at the WS9 hood...that nice. Oh and GOTv-8 nice hood and you do take a good pic, its tough to pull off a screaming eagle on a ls1 and even worse on a ws6 hood. Nicely Done.

To the OP, if this is the route you are going with your car....hope you have a good flamesuit, a double spoiler....are you serious. There is a reason that we have hundreds of aftermarket companies for ls1 ta's mod parts but only a few for rear spiolers....why change a good thing. Maybe you been hanging with to many i4 and v6 guys.

don't ruin a good looking car with an ugly spoiler like that. I do like that hood though. Keep it black, I dunno about the lime green thing. It could be pulled off in some good airbrush work though.

Thanks
I just want something completely different from the rest of the WS6's i see
and the wing is a maybe
and is the mecham hood really a bad fit?
cuz i love the extractors

i have a guy that does interior work and he is willing to out lime stripes down the middle of the seats for me for cheap
idk mos thte ppl that i have talked to have said the green on black sounds good

yes i do hang out with alot of ricers but down here thats all there is
and i am only pushing a 3.8 v6 at the moment

my TPI 350 isnt ready yet but soon
