I stumbled across this german page today and absolutely fell in love with this front! Does anyone here have this front or got some more pics of it?

Kind of cool looking, don't like the side of the car though or the triangle tips. If it didn't have such a large front chin, if shortened i mean, it look better.
looking back at, i can hear batman theme music playing.:P That or knight rider.

Not bad, I actually like that. I wonder where it's from.
edit - dur, it's from germany...
edit again - they have it in a non flared version... but it's pricey.

It's too much at once. I think the spoiler is nice, the front bumper cover (minus the huge chin) is nice, and the added side scoops are nice. But all together it's just too much of a change to the original body lines.

If you look closely (especially at the blue one) and think of the front of the car as a "face", it looks like an old man with an underbite and squinty eyes with a "hehe ... duh" look.
Either that or it looks like it has a "cow catcher", like what's on the front of an old steam engine.
I'd hate to see what a speed bump would do to that.
But, that's just my opinion ... each to his own! I am not responsible for how other people fugly up their otherwise very nice cars.
deadbird, nice link to the google translator!

I kinda agree. I have thought about cutting the "lip" on the bottom off, so it looks like the top of the front is sticking out..

I don't think it looks that bad. I'm not real big on Trans Am, but with the kit shown , it acutally is starting to look like a later IROC nose. Starting to look more and more like a camaro to me.
