IMO, I would personally go with the CDC Aggressive Chin first.

I say this because it makes the most visual impact IMO, while the window louvers are a more common attribute now amongst the newer body styled ponies. I also feel it should be among your personal preference of what you like best while if you plan on doing all of them you can't lose on which one you pick as they will all be done eventually.

He's not asking what looks "good", he's asking what would have the biggest visual impact.

On a car, the biggest visual impact comes from the side view, so anything you do to the side of a car changes the look the most. That's why wheels can totally alter the visual impact of a car. Just think about a Chevy Tahoe with those crappy 16" stockers vs a set of pimped out chrome dubs. Same car, but you'd think it wasn't. Just look at the thumbnail vs the sig in my post to see what I mean.

So if wheels are not in the budget I'd have to go with side louvers. It really changes the look for very little cost. Check out some of the members' rides in the photo area to see the difference those louvers make! Good luck to what ever you decide and it's nice to know someone would get you something YOU really wanted and was important to YOU, and not them.

This is true. That said, I think they ALL look good. If I didn't, I wouldn't have made it an option on the list. I have to start somewhere though, so my thought was to start with the biggest impact. If as I go along, things start to look "over done" then I can pass on something, but at least I would have made the best mods first.

I mean it though. The results surprise me. I expected the side window louvers or hood scoop to come in first. I see the point about the profile being the most obvious visual of a car. I also believe the "face" of the car is important. I guess a chin spoiler would really be visible in both directions.

I'll post pics when things are done. Sorry but that won't be until Xmas. Like maybe 11:47 am 12/25/2006.



Thanks again for the input.
