Also keep in mind that due to the body configuration between the Firebird and Camaro it will look different on each vehicle

I've seen Kokes' car in person, hell I see it every week and the pics do it no justice especially to see the car going down the road, I do believe a 300+ tire gives off the best effect for that side splitter and for those thinking it looks like rice but havn't seen it in person don't buy it, can't have everyone looking like a Quarterhorse in a herd of donkeys.

FedEx delivered my side splitters today......on Saturday! Quick shipping too...ordered on May 6 (Kalifornia to Pennsyltucky).
Got them installed already.........install went great, taking my time and working carefully, drivers side took maybe one hour and then it only took about a half hour for the other side.
Was a little nervous on what the finished product would look like, but I think it looks great (don't care what anyone else thinks either, it's my car)
Unfortunately, weather sucks, it's raining, but I'll get some photos in the next day or so and get them posted
(Thinking to myself, now if I only had a set of canards to finish it all off..................
