The good, the bad, and the UGLY! TONS of third gen body kit/ custom pics!!!

I stumbled across this in an old post on tilt hoods. Everything from hilariously bad ******* customs to wild GM showcars. Definitely worth a look even if you're not interested in modifying your car.

Re: The good, the bad, and the UGLY! TONS of third gen body kit/ custom pics!!!

I like looking at those concepts and highly modified cars. Not so much because I want my car to look like that, because I don't, but those cars definitely give me some inspiration and ideas that I can use for my own project.

The factory.....Called a 'Kammback'. Perfectly stock other than the hatch.

Personally....I'd love to have a Kammback hatch!

Re: The good, the bad, and the UGLY! TONS of third gen body kit/ custom pics!!!

OK. So I see this post and think "sweet, I want to make a custom nose, maybe I can find a good one to draw some inspiration for shape". Now, I think I should just leave the stock one on in fear that my car will look like anything on page 9. I'm also affraid to sleep, because nightmares are bound to come.

I beg of you, please..... If you suck at life, don't touch cool cars. Spend your time on dime a dozen little commuters and put 5 ft. spoilers on, paint them hot pink, do whatever you must. But, for the love of humanity, don't touch a thirdgen.

Thanks Phishman. I really needed this reality check. Ugh, i'm so glad most of that stuff went out of style.

IROC 2NV actually used to be a member here... I guess the 08' joining members wouldn't remember though. Shannon has some nice cars and some just crazy stuff in there. I remember most all of those pictures from this very board over the years, very cool to see them achived somewhere.
