Im just about to start working on a kit.. im going to post pics of the different ideas i have running in my head and Id like for people to vote for favorites.. im willing to make mold and sell... any additional ideas will be considered thank you. :]
the first pic of the rear window, the first pic of the side view and the front end concept are all your best choices I think. Good luck, cant wait to see pics as im going to make a fiberglass wing for my brothers stang.
I know I dont speak for the masses, but the majority of guys I know with 3rd gens, and more specifically Firebirds (since Pontiac has been axed) arent the type to put those style of ground effects on the car. And the body style Firebird you have was only available for 2 years (from what I can see in the side shot, at least the nose is a 2 year only).
My personal opinion is a big NO on both. The sides might work for some, but if you get more than 4 or 5 to vote yes on the front end design, Ill be amazed. And voting yes isnt a guarantee to purchase either.
I say if you like it, do it. If nobody else likes it, who cares. Its your car.
the only reason I believe the front end "wont work" is because the front end on the Firebird sits really low. Think about it, the headlights come UP to be at average height with other vehicles (*ahem* camaro), take a look at the front of your car in person from the front and the sides and you'll see it'll be too low and too small of space to work with. Even if you added the front gfx, you'd have to pretty much make a whole new front end for your car. The sides however, I really like, I would definitely put something like that on my 'bird. DrummerDad is right about people with your gfx being anal, but its your car and you do what you want with it. I don't care if its loosing the value of the car, but I don't plan to ever sell my car...
