It really really reminds me of a 1990 IROC-Z I love those cars

I like the spoiler and the spoiler (front and rear) looks nice!!

I think it looks ugly. Looks like a car you'd find in Mexico, there's too much going on.

Sorry, just my opinion.

Is that the Sonic Blue or Vista Blue? I was looking at those side window louvers but then decided to go with the Street Scene Generation II. After looking at yours, I am glad I did. I think they stick out a little too far. Other than that, looking good.

i think the chrome around the taillights is 2 much, out of place with all the black, but as long as u like it thats all that matters

Andyman- I do not think I will lower it really. I drive it 70 miles everyday and there is just to much to hang my front spoiler on.(I did it recently and had to repaint, doh) And an Iroc Z? Not even close, lol

05BlueGT - It is Sonic Blue and actually the CDC louvers do not stick out much further than the Street scene. They just are squared off and the black color I went with makes them stand out more. I've seen several ponys with CDC's in a matching color to the car and they blend in better.

stangxs - I wasn't asking for a critique of the car but thanks for the wonderful information about Mexican cars. I'm not sure what kinds of cars I would find in Mexico but I am sure that people from Mexico who read these forums might find that offensive. Really an unecessary post and if you were really sorry you would have not posted at all. [sm=badidea.gif]

Great looking car, nice work. Dont be concerned what others think, if YOU like it,
YOU'LL feel good driving it. If it were mine I would lose the rear window louvres and put limo
tint on the rear window then change the detail around the taillights to black, better match. Then
I would feel good driving it.

+1 on the chrome tail light accents, but the rest looks cool, reminds me of the '69/'70 fastbacks

Thanks silver! I was going for a classic fastback look somewhere around 67-70. The tail light chrome and black spoilers are a common theme for those years so I thought it fit together nicely.
