just wondering, but did you move your exhaust exits to the other side of the car, because i noticed that before it was on the right and after it is on the left.

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

I love the transformation. The T/A style nose and ground f/x really "beefed up" the look of the car. The wheels aren't really working for me....maybe a set of black GTA wheels or a nice set of aftermarkets would really complete it.
I'm floored with your engine bay. Simply awsome. I have also been a big fan of the blue/gray color scheme.
Keep up the awsome work!

I liked the "before" better. I've always been a sucker for single-color Formulas. I think they look better than Trans Am and GTA cars (and this is coming from a GTA owner
).
That aside, your new body style still looks well done. I do like the new tail lights, and the engine bay looks great.

I love those later-model GTA tails, where'd you get those and how much did it run you? Easy installation?
And obviously I love the S/C too but that's kind of a given
