The term, "******* HIDEOUS" comes to mind.

I am all for the "to each their own" motto but it looks like a "mini" '69 attempt. IIRC the 4th gens are almost 8 inches shorter (frame) then the 1st Gens and so it looks like the Camaro version of the short school bus.

It is a kewl idea, but the body lines are too different (to me) to make it look right.

Actually a touch cheaper than I was guessed. $428 front + $225 rear = $653

Yeah I actually saw those in the YearOne catalogue, but still, I'm not sure if I would be capable of installing them to look perfect.

The windshield and rear window blow the whole look, I feel the same way about C-1 bodies on C-5 running gear the raked windshields look.

Yeah, and the front & rear deck/hood/etc look all "snubby".
