I actually like the rear end, but still a terrible waste of a C3.

looks good to me but only if I had a vette that wasn't that special. also look's expensive by the time you get it completed.

I wonder what the point of taking an "old" car and making it look like a "new" car is, instead of "restoring". Although I like the looks of the car, I would cut mine like that..... ever.

Just a BIG WHY!!? Ruin the look of the C3 and doesn't look better than a C6 and surely is not cheaper than either car to obtain! Of course that just my thoughts.

I saw these at Carlisle this past year. They looked nice, would not do that to mine. But those who like the mods and the link to the two generations, why not.

I like it, one of the nicer body kits around. I wouldn't cut up a good Vette but I would certainly use it to reskin something like this

Its not bad.

I love the headlights over the pop up bricks on the front of ours.

$6600 for bare kit and you still need to buy all the lights and stuff. Ouch.

The C6 dashboard conversion is very cool.
