Default Gt or cobra?

I have a 92 Gt. I like the look of it but think the 93 cobra looks a little better. ShouldI keep the Gt look, or go all out to make it what its not.

I should have made it more clear, just the body kit. Nothing to do with the engine.

why not, its his car and he can do what he wants, dude dont care about what other people think, i mean, its sometimes good to get input, but if its visual, or like exhaust, go with what YOU want, not what other people TELL you you want

you dont want to do that man, its a mistake. TRUST ME buddy, dont start doing visual things with your car, like body kits, ground effects, etc, unless/until you have your engine/suspension the way you want it. Your gonna find cars that are all show and no go, i dont think you want to be one of them.

This is just my opinion, theres gonna be people above me that are wrong, so watch out for it.

=P

The suspension is done, as far as the motor goes a 347 or a 408 not sure yet, I wouldn't touch the body intil i drop in the new engine, just trying to see what u all think. I would make the outside look just like a 93 cobra with the kit from cervinis. I'll probably just change the rear bumper that the guy before me cut up and the spoiler to cobra and leave the rest alone.

GTs are good looking cars, keep it for what it is and the market value will be higher. dont make it something its not...... because its not. \

AND +1 on whoever said do the engine and suspention. DO IT! dont worry about looks untill your car can whoop up on others. ricers worry about ground effects and glowing tacs that are useless at that stage in the game.

inside out is my moddo.
