Brian! You're alive! How's school? Jessica's headed over in about two weeks. Give me some contact information--maybe you'll need to carpool sometime.

Thanks for all of the feedback--positive and negative. I'll post up some pics after it's painted in a few weeks.

It looks alright with the firebird/formula rear bumper, but how would it look with the T/A rear bumper????


Photoshop it someone.

Looking forward to seeing it in finished trim. What hood are you using in the second set of pics, it looked like you have a formula hood in the first set but I don't recognize the second hood?

It looks like an H.O. Hood mixed w/ a Raptor.

Factory TA hood in first set. Superhawk Outlaw hood in second set.

I think it will flow better if you ditch the side skirts..... maybe some sort of a shaker hood?

Looks great! Props for trying something new. IMHO, it would look great if you went with the superhawk, and maybe some TTIIs and 315 like someone previously said. I'm somewhat biased towards those wheels, but I think it would go better with the rest of the car.

Some of you wanted to see this after paint. Here it is, the spoiler anyways. Still have to get the hood and bumper covers painted. Been a busy summer, bought a new house, moved in, vacation, etc., etc. Anyways, here you go. Tossed in one pic of the Superhawk hood for fun.

I said it before, and I'll say it again:

That is badass! I'm seriously thinking of doing this!

im really torn on my opinion on this. It looks sweet at certain angles and at others it looks like it needed to be moved back maybe a few more inches.

Either way, its original and you did a good job coming up with it

I think it would look good at the back edge of the hatch.

You live in Kent? I was just there all this past summer...I'll be back to visit this coming winter, I'll have to look you up and see if I can see your 'bird in person. I've always thought this kind of spoiler would look good, but it's something I'd have to see in person first.

I have to agree with you. However, to move it back that far would cause it to lay back too much unless you added an inch of glass under the rear edge. That wouldn't quite look right either. This was the best compromise I could find.

Overall I like it--but it still could be better.

It looks alright.. I think if the side pieces (not the pieces on the hatch but the ones on the quarter) could be shaved a little and not made to be so big and go all the way to the outer line of the car then it would look better and not make the ***/spoiler look so broad and weird flowing..
