Wish you had some picture that I didnt have to turn my head back and forth to see the pictures but the car looks good.
Not a big fan of the decal on the hatch glass, the gm badge, or the little phoenix birds on the pillar covers. Just to many things that attract attention when looking at the car.

All in all its looks good

my thoughts exactly. all those damn angles gave me a headache!


But i like the way the car is looking. and i must say, you are the FIRST person i have ever seen remove the factory gfx from a Trans Am. it doesn't look bad, but the bottom doesn't flow as well with the front/rear bumpers without it.

Overall it looks really good, although i gotta agree with homerunhtr about the little decals and things. it would clean it up a lot if you got rid of them. i had things like that on my car too and finally decided to take em off. glad i did!

Car is to low and Jack didn't fit. They were all cracked and chipped when I got it. He said from speed bumps and his driveway.

So I removed them and welded holes in.
