In all reality, it shouldn't look good, but for some reason, it really works on your ride. I'm diggin it. The only thing I would have changed would have been (as has been said) the way the stripes come together in the front. I would have stopped them in the nostrils too, but then it wouldn't have been near as unique either!

I really like the spoiler, that definitely different!!!

And I think the Black Z06 wheels would look good, but don't go with the ones with the "bolts" or "rivets" or whatever, I think just the solid black ones on your car.

Just my opinion, it's your car, do what YOU wanna do!

looks nice man, i have always liked it. i think it is different, but not tacky. i think the black Z06's would look great, but i wouldnt get the ones with the fake bolts. stick with a polished lip and you're good to go.

Interesting, ...
Not too bad, ...
But, ..., I too would have to say that IMO it would have been better if it matched the nostrils in front.

I wouldn't have went so far down with the point in the front, but besides that it looks decent. I really like the wheels though (see sig).

I love it... but then again, I'm quite partial to that type of thing. I did the same thing with mine a couple of years ago. HERE'S MINE The hood's a bit different, but I did the split spoiler thing too... lots of compliments on it. Looks good man.

The reason I asked was I have a buddy that has a white '78, and I know of another guy that has a white '77. They both live in Indianapolis.

Looks good except for the way that it comes to a point on the front bumper. I would have just stopped at the hood. I like the rear bumper though.

well I for one love it. I wanted that paint scheme since I saw it on the yellow black prototype 30th anny. And since our cars were twins, I know it would/will look good.

Is that your '77 or '78 in the one pic?

i like it. there was a thread not too long ago about the same thing, but with a lt1 body style. i dont like the point in the front though, but all that matters is what you think. maybe it has to grow on you.

i like it. Reminds me a little of the banshee concept car. Don't know why, but it does.

I think that you should lose the stripe in the middle though. Get in the boat with both feet

Looks wicked...with black Z06 wheels, it would look wicked-ER. <- that's my word.
