How do you like this wide fendered Sport Coupe?
I was playing around with a Sport Coupe and I thought it would look cool with a low front end and an early Z28 style rear. What do guys think?

Does anyone make a hood like that for our cars?? If so I would Definitely buy one. That kind of hood would look sweet with stripes.

Looks sweet man. I wish you were with some of the companies that design aftermaket parts. Your ideas are so much better then the blah designs they have out there.

I love the look on those modified Datsuns, but since I don't own one, I wondered how it would look on the underappreciated Sport Coupe. I like the look of no ground effects, but I can't stand the small and somewhat high front end.

I really like the wing. I wouldn't have it on my car, but its deffinitely different, in a good way.
I don't care too much for the corvette taillights. The hood is nice. What I really like though, is the rear bumper, how it has molds for the exhaust to go into. Its perfect.

devianb, you should do a 91-92 Firebird drawing, I don't think I've ever seen a custom nose for one. Could be interesting.

I like it. I'd love to see that car built.
Here's my ideas for the design.
1. put "spats' in front of the rear tires. You saw these on lots of second gens's. It would tie in with the flared GFX in front of the front tires.
2. Mold the tail light panel to the body. The cut-line for the stock tail lights drives me nuts. it's a hard feature to design around.

I like it. Especially the front. Black would be great of course.
