front end makes me sick, however, the paint job is what makes the car with-standable.

I agree with Manny. The kit and colors are WAY too much for me but I know some people like those kind of things and to each their own.
Here is a tip. I give this to you in the spirit of constructive critism so I hope it is received that way. If you are trying to build your business, my suggestion is to paint and post some cars that are slightly toned down from yours and this one. You still have to include enough custom work to show off your skills but try posting some projects that appeal to people with more traditional tastes. IMO, that would help your business as 99% of car owners would never do something like that to their car (even the number of teenagers that would do something like that is very small I would guess). Good luck. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

Props on the work. A lot of time and effort was put into that.
I hate that Firebird hood and I hate it even more on that car. It looks like a cheap remake of the ram air. I'm really old school, so really, it might be the rage now. I am really sorry it just dosen't do it for me. I'm sure the paint is amazing.
