I worked a little more of what you were trying to accomplish. A little too sport compact for me...but if it's what you want it looks pretty badass.

I like the kit car front end, and the headlight relocations. had that lemans look and no need to open up the stock wind jammers at night. stock lights could be removed and used as some dual scoops.

I don't care for the pointy black one... the first design at the top is kinda neat and the red illustration is neat, but I dunno about that pointy one, always thought it was kinda weird.

Got another one, it's a '91-'92 nose with the holes filled in. Just add a Daytona wing and a couple of Road Runners, and it's Super-Bird! Meep-Meep!

Hemi Orange? I'm a bigger fan of Petty Blue
Anyway, the blackouts came off a photo of a '71 , complete with headlight doors and Road Runners. I just figured I only needed one set of headlights on the car, and they just looked cooler down there in the nose.

I really like that superbird the more and more I look at it. and least it not riced out, thats old school stylin.
man I would not be ashamed to drive that car.
Kinda sucks though, I have not even bothered to paint my car yet or start any body work; cause I live in acorn country. 70-100ft acorn tree's, when the season hits; its like world war 3 out side. you can hear them comming like bombs from above. all you want to do is duck and cover.
you cant have a nice car at all around here. unless you like that drove behind a stone truck too long look. or the dimply cottage cheese a$$ look.

How about a Ferrormula???
The color needs a little work, but it gives you an idea...
The front is from a Ferrari 550 Maranello. And the grill would be functional...

SpeedCat86, or other photoshop wiz
ok just humor me here, but doesnt that super bird have the right lines, it almost look right but better. the updated version.
ok someone plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Do a general lee mod. stick the front end off a 68-69 charger on there. gotta have the brush guard. same as a RR charger but flat nose. do a stock notchback and put the chargers rear end on it/ tail lights.
Im sure asking for allot but i think it would end up looking well.
I am still diggin the superbird but I owuld fear breaking that wing off.

I'd love to keep the look of the stock GTA style nose but add extra fog light holes. Like the first pic but without the center part. If you could do something like that with the foglights but keep the rest basically stock I would buy one. Also side by side fog light holes would be nice also. Maybe two side by side or three. I have seen people cut their GTA/TA style nose for additional fog lights but it always looks like crap.
