It sure isn't something I would do.

Imagine the kid who pulls up next to the "Ferrari" in his Honda and races it and comes close or wins.

interesting car i guess

everything is STEEL yay...

Well basically he wanted 40,000 grand for a car that i would use as parts lol.

The design stinks and the fact that it has nothing to back up the looks besides a muffler.....geez

love to see a suburban come close on that car.

i don't think it looks that bad, it's pretty tastefully done, it's not as horrible as alot of aftermarket kits...and it can't look any worse than a stock trans-am
