I love the way it looks but I agree, I think that it would look better without the foglight pieces removed, and the liscense plate Powdercoated black. Very good modification for $10.

I'll chime in and agree that:
1.) Black chrome like the CTS-V grilles would be killer. I really wanted a grille like that for my Camaro but settled for a Stull.
2.) Also don't care for the fog light areas. I think it is mostly because of the sharp angles on the inboard, but then again a pure teardrop wouldn't look right either, so meh.
Also looks like your lower fender mounts need whacked in, and by god man get rid of the stiffy wax.
I call it stiffy wax because a guy in college nicknamed stiffy once waxed his ENTIRE Ford probe. Glass, tires, trim, lamp lenses. EVERYTHING. Just lathered it on like carwash. Lol.
Definitely different, now just perfect it so it before a copycat does, lol.

i like it, but i think you need to get the T/A front end, and remove the fog lights along with the liscence plate area and then i think it would look SICK, expecialy if all the mesh was painted black..

(which i will be doing to a friends turbo formula as well) but i think the light area is too much mesh up front

I like everything but the foglights. The liscence plate is cool but like some people are saying either in chrome or black would look great.Also, I think a finishing touch to the sides would be some chrome/silver Formula overlays.

the z06 had the mesh guards...a little much since the running lights are on...if the lights were off...i think itd look good. the IC cover has its function and looks good.

Here is a little better quality picture. I think they look much better in this pic.
I will likely go with the consensus though and after a while drop the fog light ones. For now though I am gonna roll with them for a while.
