i don't know what is more hideous,the wing,the interior,or the front liscense plate on the red one???
however,the ram air nostrils if placed more forward on the hood(and more rounded ones from a late model trans am)could be interesting......

either that or my lunesta is creeping in. nitey-nite.

Thanks again! Grandpa gets all the credit for putting them on in '95. The avatar pic was actually taken of the damage to the rims from being curbed so much (I didn't do it!) but the pic came out looking really cool anyways.

Looks like it has PITCH control. BUt it's going to need some lift along with some ROLL and YAW surfaces.
A little modification of the propulsion system to keep it going after she leaves the ground and she'll be right as rain.

Don't think I would do it but I kind of like the hood. The rest of it especially the wing...

"hhmmm i think ill slap a cheap *** 100$ wing on both my vettes. maybe the ricers will think im cool then. wait ill do the interior in tiger stripes! yes thats it!!!" what a dumbass! not much on bashing peoples **** but this ******* makes it too easy. if i seen that car in the parking lot of a bar when i was calling it a night id probably be compeled to "fix" his wing.
