Looks great Gendo...thats the same combo we're using on Shannon's (redraif's) 82 TA, though it will look a lot different overall with the other mods we're throwing in (shaved everything, 4th gen mirrors, targa, notch, raised Fiero GT wing,pewter metallic with black/transparent black/candy blue flames). That hood gives the Kitt nose a much more evil look, I like it!

I like it. Any other Kitts running around with that combo?

Whose nose do you have? Also, which companies hood?

Wow...I went and added the newest concept drawing to the 82s site and there you were in the guest book! How cool! You should set up a Car Domain site!

Concept drawings...

This is my friend Mike's 92 Firebird with his own personal touches of Kitt. He calls his car Kitt-X

Sweet ride and his detailed craftsmanship of his car is outstanding.


I like the looks of the Ram Air I hood better thand the RAII

This has been a project of his for a few years now. His car is awsome.

It certainately is an interesting combo. I can't wait to see how redraif's comes out for the 82. I think the RA2 hood looks better than the ram air with the KITT nose.

It looks a lot better than i thought it would, i like it.

It would be a little better (i think) it the top of the Nostrils were more sqaure... they appear that way in Devians drawing of RedRaifs new project... unless it just looks that way to me becuase of the hardline drawn in the pic....

I love the nose, hood combo, i just think with that nose the car needs a friggin lowering job.... Pics always make it seem like its REALLY high up.

Coming along nice though

sorry, but that's hideous

/edit: the second one looks better, but he should remove the ground effects.

It definatly gets attention. of course, the first question everyone asks is, "does it talk???". I got the hood from hawks. i'm not sure but i think it was the old gtauto hood, but the box said New Designs. As for the nose, its the $400 ebay one, Redraif has pictures of it on her site. As for the alignment of everything... i think its partly messed up because the previous owner ran the passanger side nose/fender underneith a pickup truck. I'm going to see about rasing the front of the fenders a little bit, then even out the headlight cover. After I do that, I'll raise the nose up. I'm also going to tint the windows when i get a chance and eventually think about lowering it.

I like the first one, but the second one doesnt look right for some reason, gfx maybe? They just dont seem to go with the angular nose. Overall, definately interesting!!!

I will be getting my ram air 2 hood hopefully the end of april or the middle of may. I will also be getting the 4th gen spoiler as well for my car. I have Yanceys nose on my car but I am wanting to get either Marks nose because it is longer or maybe Dons nose sometime in the near future. I do think the car looks awsome with the large ram air. Kitt-X looks awsome as well.
