Default Judge conversion kits?

I've noticed that many are interested in the Holden conversion kits..don't get me wrong, that's really cool, but what about the Judge? I see almost next to nothing for this, not even concept art showing modern day judges, and always thought it would be cool to do, what do you guys think of a modern day judge? YAY? or neigh?

I'm actually quite surprised that Pontiac didn't have a judge trim optional in the first place.

That is a bad pic of one of the nicest GTO conversions according to most, the RA6.

Better pic:

why didn't GM pay attention to its designers. I love the re birth of the GTO and all, but shots likes these with cars like these makes me cringe..when I look at the plane jane looks of the production GTOs. I love my goat through and through, but these are some sick rides.

The GTO in stock form looks MUCH better then any of those. Modern day "judge" packages are rediculous.

I don't really mean going to the extreme with it and changing the entire body... just thought they should have come up with a Judge package from the factory that had a better suspension and maybe a little more under the hood, maybe a true ram air for the ls1 with the TAK on the hood.

lol didnt catch the joke.

But I agree. They should have done something for a judge package. NOTHING appearance wise though.

All the judge renditions look like either a euro punk *** or a ricer came up with them.

I agree that the cheap silver needs to go to a black that matches the ENITRE rest of the interior.

but CF would only make it worse.
The GTO was never about any bells or whistles....if you're going to retro-fit a new "judge", it needs to be like the old one.

Just my .02

You can get an over the radiator intake from westcoastspeed.com

You can find a lot of good stuff for the GTO, if you want to do some body stuff the sports appearance package option stuff isn't bad looking at all.

Pics of BBM? One of the nicest GTO colors out there!!
