Default I guess I don't get it.

I really don't see it as being too bad. The only thing that throws the car off are the wheels, and the flames or the stripes, one or the other should go. The interior is nice, get a replacement dash pad and while it may not be for me, I think it's okay. The car is clean and the paint looks good, the engine bay is clean and the sound system isn't too different from a lot of cars on this site. And I've seen things on this site that I don't agree with (4" cowl hoods on stock engines, WTF???) but I still respect people and their love for their cars.

Oh well.

Big, heavy stereos don't belong in a performance car IMO. Hell, I have the 10 speaker setup in mine and it's probably pretty heavy all in all. That, and it also puts out MORE than enough bass in even stock form. Upgrade the mid-basses to something bigger and it'd be perfect.

The dash probably isn't even crashed under that mat, so all you'd have to do is remove it and the velcro.

Agreed. I think that **** looks ridiculous unless you are running a carb setup.

Or an aftermarket EFI on a LT/LS motor, but still 4" is extreme then. Only thing I could see justifying that on our cars is a semi-small top mount blower. Like the LS has with the TB mounted to the back of it.

I wish I had Lambo doors. But only for convenience. I hate parking in a tight spot and having to slide out the side of the car. Still, I would close them as soon as possible so no one knew I had them.
