^^X2. I've never been a fan of it back there. Should have left it off when we polished the lights.



For those of you not in the know....Steve painted the bird filler himself with spray paint then added the black bird. I was there when we plucked it off a wrecked red NHRA edition WS6.

I like the stripes on the hood. So far those are the only stripes I've seen on LS1s I've liked - small and tasteful.

the foglights have to go i know. they are something the previous owner did to the car. I havent really found a set to put in there yet. I like the T/A on the rear, its something i havent seen anyone else do.
