Anyone with photo shop care to add a huge cigar hanging out of that frontclip? Or a big pink tongue? Maybe some jagged billy-bob teeth?
Tasteless design.

Here's another front end glass kit that was recently on eBay. I liked it initially, but I'll stick with the stock gfx.

I've seen the yellow one before and I have to say that the more I see it, the more I want to destroy it. I hate it with every fibre of my body. I hate it on a cellular level. I'd like to smash it. I'd like to kill it. I'd like to tear the front of it off with my teeth.

I think what has happened here is simple. The designer sat down for a few months and drew up many designs. He then proceeded to take all of the good, excellent and acceptable ones and, throw them away. He then took the crap that was left and created the odeous creation that we have all been subjected to.

Make no mistake, this car is punishment from god. Possible even designed by FORD, but that argument can quickly be dismissed as FORD have never designed anything that good. In fact I wouldn't be all tht surprised if the designer was in fact some famous Yugoslavian designer who was formally responsible for such wonders as the Yugo 45, the car that the comunists used to show us all that they really were capable of building cars to be ashamed of. Cars that complemented their military equiplemt brilliantly.

Ladies, Gentlemen, in fact my fellow Third Genners. I think we should join and remove the cruelty that is that car. Subject someone else to it. Return it to the pits of hell from where it was created.

Standing for th rights of the F-body

Oh my God - I don't think I have seen a more sure-fire way to ruin an icon of modern culture. The Camaro should never have been donned with such an inappropriate bosy kit. Why would anyone want that 'thing' on their car? Let alone actually pay for the 'privilege'? Hehe, some people just don't get it do they? So tasteless, and absolutely lacking in class.

Robert: I agree with your comments completely - very elegantly put my good man. Let's meet up in the IROC-Z soon and get the quarter-mile times down a bit more - fuelled by the hatred and vile brought out by that 'kit'!

There was no bid on the ebay auction because they sell that same kit at www.fxdesigns.com for half the price he was asking. And its ugly as hell. Its a shame they try to destroy third gens like that. That body kit belongs on a gay ford probe or mitsu eclipse. Thats horrible
