Default New look for the Formula!!!

well...didnt take me too long to start modding the new Formula. i started with the exterior cause the stock wheels and hood had to go....next will be some suspension and than after that, who knows.

heres some before and after shots:

before-






and now...new hood, new wheels, Tint, and center filler panel.

after-








my crappy camera doesnt do it justice. let me know what you all think.

Get back with me on that in about ten years when they look dated. Just like the late 70's 'birds do.

everyone if entitles to their opinion. me personally, i love it. theres nothing more intimidating than a ws.6 hood...period. Firehawk is nice but it looks too much like the stock reguler hood.

Look at Scott trolling up some guy's thread, blabbing about boring stock hoods.

Car looks great, my only complaint is you calling a manly FORMULA a "formy". Uggh, I hate when people call it that wimpy slang word.
