I wouldn't do the gt500 front end unless you really like the look.

What size 20 inch tires are those? They look good, unlike some that look like they're riding on the rim. It might just be me, but I think those mirrors would look better if the triangle portion were black.

Why would you put a blower on a v6? The main reason I hear most people buy the v6 is for fuel economy or wanting a convertible, but not needing the power. But, if your willing to spend upwards of 5k on a blower what the hell do you buy a v6 for?

Car looks awesome btw...I didn't even realize it was a v6 until I started scrolling down and reading replies...but jeez thats alot of money into a sixer.
A V6 with a $4K blower is faster than a GT with a tune and CAI ... it will leave you an additional $4K for appearance mods, Sound system, wheels tires , etc ... plus everyone has GT's ... how many have S/C V6's ....

$900 for HIV lights is not worth it to ME.
I will not pay that kind of money for that alone.
Then again, that's me. And only me.

I'm sure MELLOWYELLOW will agree.

Hi Joe!


How dose the GT500 ft. look with the stock hood I have? Will that go well?




It goes well I think.
Some will tell you that it has that squished look because it's so flat. But it's still not ugly at all.
There are people on the forum that have the conversion with the OEM hood.
Ask YELLOWMELLOW if he can send you a picture of his with the old hood. It looked great.

to be honest, i'd like to some other stuff, i feel like the gt500 conversion is getting a tad boring and old. sorry if that offends anyone, i just think there are more gt500 conversions than actual gt500s.
You'r breaking my heart bro[]. I didnt mean to bore anyone[&o]. Where in Pali are you?
