This is one of those few moments that a man can say to another man....Nice a$$. Is "Lingenfelter" molded into the rear or is the lettering removable??

Very nice look.....

Headlights look familiar.

Looks great guys!

The work looks great, but the **** itself is wack. The black rear is way outta place, wouldve looked better with just the stripe wrapping over the rear and coming down, IMO. The wheels make me gag as well as I despise black wheels anyway.

The paint work is killer though, nice job !

Looks like a lot of work went into making her shine, but NOT my cup of tea at all.

Not hating, just saying if you like, then I love it. Call me old fashion, but a triple black vette with shiny chrome wheels is all I need.

I don't like the lights and think the hood should be a little lower. I just don't like how tall it is. The wheels are okay but I wouldn't put them on my car. I'd like them better if they were symmetrical and didn't look like a fan blade.

The work is nice but the parts look like they came from the "performance" section at Pep Boys
