Don't like the spoiler.
Don't like the non-pop ups.
The holes in the front bumper, although a good idea and might have been pulled off, are to big.
and you need to fill those recesses for exhaust tips in the back!

With a stock Trans Am wing and regular pop-up headlights, along with some skinnier wheels to compliment the overall look you've got going, I think it would look great IMO. The only way that bumper can be pulled off is with a huge intercooler like you've got.

Camaro does both of those for less money for the purchase alone, to say nothing of the mod costs.
Sorry, just MO and all, but that's hideous.

Look HPP calm down. i have had Firebirds in my family for as long as i have known and i think the stock form on the trans am is awesome. if not i would have never bought a trans am. I did not buy the car for one certain detail. Your right if i wanted non pop ups i should just bought a camaro. But thats not why i bought the car. And its not the reason i have them now. I bought the lights to stand out, and they do. Everywhere i go with or without bodykit they all want to know where i bought them from. Its not the fact that they r non pop up, its because they are different. Personally i like the factory head lights better, but these get all the attention (positive or negative) everybody still looks and asks about them. dont take it personal

Well the first thing I thought when I saw it was what the hell happened to that TA!? But I looked at it a little more and I do like it. Good choice on the non pop up headlights with that bumper. Although I think that bumper would look much better with slightly smaller openings I still like it. You should get the grilles just to see what it would look like. I am kind of torn on the spoiler on one hand it is very different and looks nice but on the other hand it clashes a little bit. All in all I have to give you props for having the ***** to do something that most people hated and be happy knowing that you will probably never see another F-Body that looks anything like that

Dont care for the front end but it serves its purpose prolly looks better with the grills on but that intercooler looks badass...the non popups look sweet..love the wing..where did you get it at..i love the look of it...definitely different..the only thing i would change if it was my car would be to run some lower profile tires and add the exhaust tip..but where did you get that spoiler please tell me..lol

Well this is the 1st real good pic I've seen of the spoiler and I don't care for it as much as I thought I would.. I think it just needs a little change to look great. I like the front bumper I think you did a graet job.
