I've warmed to the look of the nose, and appreciate the function. Not a big fan of the vents on the side, they look like an add on, or an after thought to me. And the back? No way. The factory tail is pretty darn good. The mod looks too generic to me.
But as always, it's your car, do what you like!  |

I guess either you love them or you don't. I wanted one for the longest time and finally did mine a year ago. Be prepared for lots of fit and finish work. if you want to paint and bolt on...well, it doesn't quite work that way.

I think the Callaway and the LPE Aerobody kits are the only ones that look good on C4's. Just my preference though. I saw one a while back on another board but it was from Japan and it looked good too. The rest look kinda tacky to me.

Hey Casey, once the emblems become popular do you think it will raise awareness?  |

Wings are tasty. LPE kit requires even more fabbing.

Nice wing and the fart can is the best
I dunno case, I like the front and I actually like the roundedness of the back as well. I have to agree about the side "vents" as I am not a big fan of them. But its your car and you do as you like...otherwise, where is the fun? |

First of all let me say, to each their own. I will never put anybody down for personalizing their car and making it their own.
But since you asked for opinions: I'm not big on aero kits or even the Greenwood kits. I think Chevy did a pretty damn fine job with the original lines. I'm no "purist". I love to see people making mods to their cars. About the only thing I like is the spoiler that's on the silver coupe. |

In short, i think the Greenwood kits look absolutely horrible, especially on the later models. The Callaway Aerobody and the Shinoda body were very well intergrated into the car, the Greenwood is stuck on and you can tell.

The fit and finish work doesnt concern me in the slightest. Quote: I dig the rear bumper, the hood Im indifferent about looks wise but I do tlike the idea of some venting or possibility for cold air.

For me, I like to keep it "somewhat" stock...that being said, I like the front vents. :thumbleft:

I think that car looks pretty good in the picture. Saying that, I have always thought that changes like that don't really age that well. What looks good today, looks really silly five years from now. One thing about Corvettes is the original design really looks good as it gets older.

Hey ! there ya go Casey!!! There are only a few cars that have a classical design, Porsche, Ferrari, you'll always know what they are years after production. Even popularity of remake nostalgic Muscle cars Camaro, Challenger, Mustang will fade after five years or so. You have a beauty of a car in it's original form and like a beautiful woman, sometimes too much make up or jewelery can make her look cheap.
