Should expect that from a Camaro guy. lol

It's not redundant at all. It compliments your car, but also states the fact that the WS6 is one hell of a lot more mean/intimidating looking.

Rims: bad ***.
Front clip: bad *** - but, as mentioned, probably can only be pulled off with a nice intercooler to show.
Headlights: not bad - I don't usually like these, but they seem to go with the "look" of your car.
Spoiler: :shrug: I dunno about the spoiler. Definitely different than stock, and (IMO) much better than the "commando" spoiler, but I'm still not sold on it..

Overall, definitely a mean-looking TA! And if you're running 10's, then you've got the ***** to back up the look too...

It's different, but in a good way. A lot of attention went into the details and I respect that, good job!

I think the car is a tad ricey, but acceptable. I would try to grill the opening to the intercooler. It looks unfinished.

I think its different, which is awesome, theres really not much room for individuality, other than with paint, when it comes to a trans am. The only thing i dont like is the headlights( just my preference), but if you are gonna have em, they look best on a darker car, like yours. Also i agree with the posters that said a grill would look good in the opening of the front air damn, the intercooler looks mean there, but at the outer edges it looks kinda funny, all in all, i say its awesome man way to go, BTW I love the spoiler, where from?

I would run the black mesh on the front bumper, get a fake tip to balance the rear and smoke your headlights. That way they will go with the color of the car and will still be non popups. I would only "show" the intercooler at shows, don't want everyone to know that you have a turbo/supercharger.

I like the Bumper, remold the wing and it be great (less slope on the sides) and Fix the headlights, you can see the screws to hold the covers on, try a clear epoxy to fix the headlight cover on and you'll be good to go What did you finally put down HP wise, I had seen the car at the shop for the longest time waiting on your motor?

i think the car looks great. i wouldn't have saved up money to buy that spoiler but at the same time, it's not bad enough to go through switching it out. the front end is bad ***.

Id just change the exaust to a dual setup (that is if it's a super charger)
Car looks good man. If you daily drove it, Id do something to cover (protect) the intercooler...never know when a big rock or bird or a steel belt go through the hole and **** that thing up. headlights...id go with one or the other (stock square light and whatever that other one is), not both but I do like the non-pop up lights.

The car is yours, if you like it...to hell with everyone else

Looks good BTW

My car and fastech have alot of history, one of those love hate relationships. As far as numbers i need to get the dyno sheet from sean to know exactly. I took it out to kennedale ( 1/8) mile track. It ran a,well heres the slips. The temp at the track that day was 102. (track temp) im number 083

I like the looks, but you definetly need another exhaust pipe. Where did you get the spoiler?

I think he's got the rear-mounted turbo setup - hence the one-sided exhaust...
