97LS1BIRD

Just swapped a ls1 into my 97 firebird. It has the wings west ground effects on it and predator style hood from suncoast creations. Trying to decide if I like way the car looks now? Looking for any opinions/suggestions about improving the looks.

Would you....

Leave it as is?
98+ front end conversion?
Swap to 93-97 ta front bumper?
swap to ta rear bumper?
swap to ta spoiler?
take off ground effects completely?

any criticisms or suggestions appreciated.

The term "rice" is being thrown around way to much. Just because something has gfx does not make it rice....I like the way the car looks now (maybe do something with the spoiler on the hatch)....but the term rice needs to be done away with lol

I think it looks good, maybe put some bigger wheels on it.

I think it looks good. wheels and a ta spoiler IMO will make it look really nice.

I like it, agree with the rear spoiler though

Spoiler= let me come over there and rip that off, it will only take a second
New front end= a gots to have , love the 98 formula look
The tail lights are killing me
Nice idea with the LS1

Other than that I love car....

Overall, I think the car looks good. I'd never call it "rice." I agree with the earlier poster who said that the term gets thrown around too much. On this board, anything outside the box of "T/A hatch, CETA, C5 Z wheels/TT2's" seems to be called rice. I like that your car is unique.

That said, I would change the spoiler. It's a little over-the-top for my taste. In the end, man, it's your car. Don't change it just because some a**holes on the internet told you to (including me).

LT1 TA front and rear with spoiler dumdumdum
and some nice rims

Don't change the front end! LT1 front ends look much better than LS1; of course that's just my opinion.

93-97 front end converson. !ground effects. & a ta spoiler.

Thanks for all the comments/suggestions.

I agree the spoiler might have to go but I think I would just leave the hatch the way it is after taking it off instead of switching to the ta hatch.

Get rid of the spoiler, keep the lt1 styling, get rid of the ground effects, and get some gunmetal wheels and you'll be hot!

I think it looks good like it is. I'd really only put a TA spoiler on it and an LT1 style WS.6 hood on it. Those hoods look better on the 93-97 cars than the newer style ones, imo.
