I havent seen these before. Looks pretty good but I prefer the stock rear and the wing really doesnt strike me as something i'd like either.

Looks great!

Is that suggesting that the sport appearance package comes with Magnaflow exhaust?!

The more I look at it, the less I'm diggin that rearend. I think they need to lower the bumper cover a couple inches, and put some wider tires on there. What are those, 225s?

I like the Holden wheels, the exhaust tips, and that's about it...

I think the picture is squeezed a bit and the proportions are off. I'll try and chop it to be more correct and repost.

Edit: Fixed the proportion of the picture. Looks a lot more normal now. (The width was pinched a good bit, but the photos angle doesnt help much either.)

Personaly, I prefer the 'stock' rear bumper better as shown on the black GTO.

i like the new front and the side skirts, and the rear will look a lot better with a licence plate. to break up the red (a friend photoshoped his plate on one)

he also redid the front got rid of the silver


(thanks to Kraaazymike @ http://www.mainstreamtopics.com for the photoshops)

Here is what i've been tossing around... Probably going with the auto-x front and sides as well as the grill inserts but use the stock rear bumper and the Arrowhead Performance 'duck bill' lip wing. I just photoshopped their 'Judge' stripes on the side this afternoon to see what that would look like on blue. Not bad really... Thoughts?

Forgive the massive image, it is made that large to be my desktop background.

I don't like it. It looks to similar to a Grand Am with the R/A hoods?
The 04 looks better, That is if you above 30 and dont want to look like a guy whos hit a middleage crisis by going out and buying a boy racer.
Do the corvette use scoops, spoilers and side vents to improve its look? NO

wing =
tips =
I thought I made a mistake going out and purchasing an 04 but am really happy I did. Im not even wild about the hood on the 05's. And the exhaust exiting out the left is growing on me. I put the SLP loudmouth on and the tips are larger than the stock and it looks sick(and sounds sicker). I think the 04 looks classy compared to the 05 approach at trying to muscle-up the look by adding the hood and split exhaust.

Only thing appearance wise I want to change is the rear bumper. I plan on converting to the 05 Bumper eventually.

I didnt think I'd like it but I like it except for that spoiler.
Grilles must be painted too.

also i found out its gona be dealer installed so you can probably have it painted how you wanted and only use the pieces you want so i think i would go with painted grill side skirts but leave the stock rear, and use the dual dual tips. stock spoiler its just a little more classy, if i want a big spoiler... thats why i bought a trans am

All that stuff is what is currently on the Monaro. How about a dern gauge pod with oil and volt.

I believe Arrowhead Performance has that covered as we speak.
