What a big difference, once the Air lid, and base was painted. Looks so much better after the FRC's and the painting of the lid! Nice job!

How many places does the car really need to say pontiac, ws6, trans am, and have the firebird logo. It looks like you put a lot of hard work into the car, just not my cup of tea. I'm sure a lot of people will like it though.

Kinda defeats the purpose of "dressing it up",if i'm gonna leave it plain. Don't ya think? I mean if that was the case I should of saved $650 bucks and spray canned everything black. It's cool though can't keep everybody happy. Thanks for your input.
