well I don't know about shows anymore?1st show was mifbody.com meet&greet (what a great group,also member)which was only f-bodies (1st - 4th gen camaros and firebirds)trophies were given out for each gen & make.won 1st for 4th gen and best firebird ,Thanks guys!!(which means alot because there was alot of nice cars but you could compare and see the difference with what I did)the next weekend went to Widetrackers all Pontiac dustoff and took 3rd,1st place did have nice paint and chrome wheels but 2nd was stock anniv.conv.(white w/blue stripes&wheels)and didn't have hood up?Then some shows only go up to 98's or so and some won't bother to take the extra steps to look at newer car.not to mention cruising woodward!

I don't have a problem with the lid, but a clear one or a FIPK would look amazing in there. But that's just me. I've been wanting to do the same for a LONG time, but never had the know-how.

Amazing!!
