Reworked Fifth Gen Pics

Whith the negitive comments on the possible new design, I desided to reworked the nose. I like the second one the best.

Sorry, but I couldn't buy either of those... It's gonna need a lot more work for me to even give it notice.

I love the C-pillars and back because of the 1st generation Camaro look. However, the front does NOT match the rear.

Sorry, but you haven't "fixed" it. Anyone can tell you it needs at least 3 feet of plastic in front of the centerline of the wheels. Double the front overhang and you are getting close.

I personally like it, I don't like the Prelude-ish look on the hood. IMO, it would look better with a small spoiler, and the front end shortened in height.

also, are there any other angles of this? it looks a little slim. It would look much better wider.

RCR, Please don't take this the wrong way I am only joking...

We are only trying to figure out what modifications we will do to our car next. Currently we want to make our cars look like 4th gens. With this new bodystyle, we are trying to size up exactly how difficult it will be to make it look like the 5th Gen.

If we take this approach, it is still on topic.

I'll elaborate a little, 'cause I just figured out why I don't like it. The nose is too short, it looks like the PT Cruiser, and even more frighteningly it's got that leaning forward look of the 4th gen Mustangs.
