IMHO it looks great and proves that a little imagination with a little work and a very little money can make a big difference.

i think you should make that silver on the wheels no more. paint it black to go with the red lol. NOW THAT WOULD BE AWSOME!

agreed, not everyone likes tacky badges on their car, and not everyone with an ss needs badges to show off to others what type of car it is. i surely didnt buy it for the badges.

I'm diggin' the black bowtie and painted engine cover.

Not likin' the deleted SSes, the grille, or the rims. I think a true, full side pic (possibly in bright sunshine) might do the rims more justice though. The flat black look of the grille makes the whole thing look like cheap plastic somehow...no matter how many times I look at it, that's the initial feeling I get...I wish I could see it live. Even though I'm not into a fair bit of what you did, it does look like you achieved what you were going for, so congrats on that. I like that you asked for honest comments, good or bad. I've always been the same way, and as long as the comments aren't mean-spirited I've always welcomed feedback of all kinds.
