Very nice! I like the badge on the nose and the wheels but lose the "trans am" sticker on the sail panel

Green TAs get a bad rep for some reason...I think they look sharp.

I like what you have done but for some reason the wheel size looks a little off to me..The rears...They look a little TOO sunk into the wheel wells...

Maybe its just the angles...Still a great looking TA I wouldn't mind drivin' myself!Great job!

Very, that green looks good, I do think the PONTIAC on the windshield takes away from the car though, would have a much cleaner look without that.

IMO, the car looks pretty damn good. I love the color and the wheels.

A couple things that would make it look better in my eyes...

-lose the windshield banner
-lose the "trans am" on the b pillar

-and for some reason the tires dont seem to fill out the wheel wells. maybe lower even more?

anywho, great lookin t/a
