Default Firebird or Trans Am front end?

I was wondering what everyone else thought about the front end difference from a bird and a TA. I do own a firebird and kinda like my front end better than the TA's.... I was wondering what everyone else thinks... And I am talking about the 98-02 years with the different placement for the fog lights and parking lights.

98-02 T/A looks the best, with the fogs in the middle on either side ....

Formula/Firebird. I have a TA and vote for the other. I like a cleaner look over the bolt on grafix and table looking wing.

The firebird/formula front end is cleaner and the t/a's is more aggressive IMO. I voted firebird though.

I like the '98-02 T/A front bumper but I think the Firebird one looks nicer with a WS6/Firehawk hood.
