Including all Materials about $200. It's not that expensive at all. Was a cheap redo of the chipped, peeling, and faded paint that was on there. And I rolled it on.

No offense but this **** is Ugly. Good way to ruin an american muscle. Dont come up with any ideas of adding a body kit and a big fat rear wing thatll add 200hp. You should of done a satin black or matte black. I know your asian and all but dont bring japanese ideas to america. If you want to do something different then add a wide bodykit or something then some big fat deepdish wheels.
Exactly. Not my cup of tea, but definitely easy to maintain.

I personally think that's sexy as hell. I know it's not conventional, but honestly people are so worried about every little scratch and dent on their vehicles... my boyfriend's got an 87 pontiac firebird that looks just like Kit. he seriously ***** bricks when little things happen, i swear, even the chipmunks gotta watch out. Your car may not be shiny, but who gives a flying ***k. If you like it, rock it.
I have seen this done on Jeeps and Trucks and it def. is a head turner. Would I personally do it on a car? Probably not but it is your vehicle and everyone has different tastes. Don't let the masses get you down.

Wasn't me lol possibly someone who likes it but doesn't want to admit it on his real Screen Name haha, and don't worry I don't let anything get me down, have more important things to worry about.
There are a lot of better options for a swap than a v6 firebird. WIthout the looks of a Trans Am or SS with a ls1 drivetrain, the 4th gen fbody has few redeeming factors. It would cost as much to convert a v6 to have those attributes as it would to just buy the right car.
It's the OP's car and if he is happy with it that's all that matters. I understand he didn't ask for anyone's opinion but what was the point of making the thread? I mean did he think was going to happen?
Ls1tech is a rough crowd.
