I absolutely hate the LT1 Firebird/Formula bumper. Just plain terrible.

I can at least stand the LT1 Trans Am bumper, but the pop up headlights ruin the look on the front end of the car for me.

The best front end is the LS1 Firebird/Formula. The headlights and bumper flow beautifully with the rest of the car's lines. The WS6 hood is a bit garish for me, but the Firehawk hood is pure sex.

The LS1 Trans Am front, especially with the WS6 hood is a little over the top for me. It looks great, but at the same time somewhat tacky(but that's always been what the Trans Am is about ).

Maybe you guys would get a kick out of these old clay mockups and concept cars. You can see all the designs GM was working on.

It looks like many of those ideas were then later used on the C4's/C5's and the Oldsmobile Alero.
I prefer the LS1 Fronts on the birds and the LT1 Fronts on the Camaro's.

I've got a 94 formula, and absolutly hate the frontend. You can not get a good shot with this frontend.

I'll be convertering over to the 98+ firebird/formula frontend w/Raptor hood asap.

After having both, I loved the look of my LT1 TA ... until I saw what they had in 98 lol...

The LT1 TA frt bumper had a problem with the plastic flexing and looking abnormal in the corners... that was a really annoying to me. So far I haven't seen that from any LS1 TA and I think it comes from the alterered position of the fender/bumper joint on the corners.

The both looked great when brand new though and thats what really counted to me.

LT1 WS6 Formula is the only LT1 front end that i like! one of the nicest of the 4th gen styling! LS1 FTMFW is my preference.

Come on now, this is LS1Tech, not LT1Tech, what kind of results do you expect from a poll like this. It is now 201 to 21 in favor of the LS1. Why do you think they redesigned it?

Not saying people can't have their own opinions, but think about where this is being posted...

Both are awesome. The LT1 does seem like it would be a little better and high speeds though.

Are you talking to me?

So, AFTER you see the results of a legitamite poll/thread you come in here and pollute it with worhtless text? Thanks, buddy.

Now on topic of this CORPSE of a thread I made when I didn't even own an ls1, I actually prefer the looks of an Lt1 WS6 T/A.
