Default Can you buy the new GTO FRC's yet??

I think these have great possibilities for my project.. im thinking the GTO could be shaved, the covers painted and the space used for CAMARO or something..



the only part I wonder about is the notch for the power steering resevoir.. I guess they would require too much cutting to fit in a new fbody but for vettes and us hybrid guys it might be nice..

opinions??

I'm sure someone will figure out a way to get these to fit on an F-Body. I also like those a lot better than the traditonal style FRC's.

Those will definitely fit an f-bod with some modications, of course. The C5 FRC's are not that practical for an F-body, but many people made it a fairly standard mod nowadays.

I personally don't like em. Saw them in person, a bit chunky, but I guess customising them can make a difference . . .

I like them because it would be much easier to fit a DP nitrous system under those.

If I had to choose for looks I would take the Vette FRC's. For some reason they just appeal to me more. Maybe because it doesn't look so "blocky"

I just called Beck & Masten and they said the car is not even in the system yet. I don't know if thats the same for all dealerships or what.

Cannibal,
I picked it off a thread started by Nineball. He was at SEMA this last week in Las Vegas. I think S & P makes them, but hopefully he'll chime in with more info.
