How much $$ do you have in the bank????????????
BTW, I have quite a bit of bling (chrome, polished SS) under my hood - doesn't seem to slow me down in the hp/tq area - it IS possible to have both

I hope I was clear in my intentions.

With that said, D, I think if you could pull that kit off it'd be tight as hell. Add your own touches of course. Also, I kind of like the lip on the front bumper, reminds me of the Saleen S7. But it would HAVE to be a new molded front bumper, as I've never seen an add-on that looks that good.

Hey Dustin! You should get the back half of a v6 Camaro shell in a junk yard, and use it to fab up the roughs.
Then return it to the junk yard when you're done....

I am HIGHLY interested. I've already got long-term plans for the powertrain on my car, and I was already kicking around the idea of getting it repainted. If I were going to get new body panels (or have my existing body panels modified), that would be a perfect excuse (and time) to get it done.
But Dustin won't sell me one, because he hates me.

I would love to see a wide body kit for maros but not exactly a DH, since it is a one of a kind super car. Having a DH Kit, with DH decals on a car that cant live up to the name is an insult. The kit would have to be completely different and new. I was tossing up some ideas with some friends about making a custom camaro show car with a DH style body and though about adding BMW style fenders, or vette style, and or some style ques from the Enzo (It may seem ricey but I like it).

I agree with Devylyst (and others) who argue that putting all the Harrell badges, hockey stripes, etc. on a car that isn't a Harrell is wrong, for the same reason I feel like putting SS badges on a non SS is wrong, but that's a whole different debate and one that has been beaten to death. However, I see this as the same type of mod as adding an SS hood or spoiler to a non SS.
A body kit does not a super car make. Ask any kid with a Civic with gull wing doors.

DH cars dont really have many badges. They have some carbon fiber lookin decals and Mr. Chevrolet on the back of the spoiler. Neither would be difficult to copy but it would take time to get dead on. But you also have things like the interior. It would cost a pretty penny to copy one, hounds tooth inserts or suede inserts and a cage with some other badges. But not too many people know what DH cars are outside the fbod/LS1 community, I think the people who know what a DH car is would respect it enough to not make it an imitation and claim it is real

Plus 3-4 months from now it'll have a D1 Procharger, blower cam, etc, I wonder how much my bling will slow me down?
