I like it, as long as it is done right i think it will look great because its not too over the top. Whats up with the gap between your door and your side gfx??

looks like something worth doing.. looks nice. you just need to fix your door area for the gfx... so it flows without that gap in there

the outcome of that will be entirely dependent on how your skills are at fabbing that up. it wouldnt look too bad if the final product looked like it came from the factory, but if it will turn out so you could walk up to the car and notice imperfections, dont do it. also, another thing to consider is you're gonna be scraping the crap outa that front bumper..

Well ist a demo vehicel so not alot of driveing.
so hopefully it wont scrap much on the little bit of driveing it gets.
and the work will be perfect or ill just redo it. but Fiberglass is our specialty so perfect wont be a problem....

That looks straight up like the Vision gfx package from showcar-bodyparts.
You can get the side gfx with or w/o scoops (sorry.. no sprinkles though...).
Don't care much for it

If you do end uo doing that enlarge the foglight holes to fill up the space more. Maybe try to fit another type of light there. Even just a regular camaro light or something.

Ground effects are pretty cool, I'd say go for it.
As for that exhaust... it's definitely something I haven't seen before, but I really don't like that placement.

I have already deleted some posts regarding the exhaust. It is not the point of this thread, please stay on topic or I'm going to have to lock this. I'd rather not as I would like to see if AudioDEO can pull off his ground effects idea.
