I think it would have look better if he would have filled in the sides of it. The first pic from behind looked kinda of cool but the side view looks stupid.

Doesnt fit the look of the car either. I wonder if it would look better on a Camaro. But for $500 + ship there are no bids.

it might look decent if you chopped off those pieces on the sides. how bad would that destroy the structural integrity of it?

If you cut them off it looks like you have a stock notchback.

Lengthened 11.5 inches.. it looks like all 11.5 inches were gained by that huge lip on the front.

Outrageous.

I think it looks rediculous. If you wanna go that route, get a factory-style notchback. Looks much better.
