Different, looks good. Is there a white center line/stripe on the spoiler to match the hood?

Looks good. Very original, and I think it turned out very nice. Good styling, I like the split color spoiler as well. Nice job!

I like the blackbird panel, and the split spoiler is cool, i dunno about tho point in the front tho, i think it may have looke better if you stopped inside the lower "nostriles" with the black paint and maybe putting a GTO arrow head badge on the white part between would look cool. but if you like it thats all that matters, is ur car

Very unique. I'm not sure about the front coming to a point though....I would have probably made the black follow the curve in front of the lower nostrils.

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