Sweet job on the sideskirts, they look amazing!
Also, this is the second set of gold wheels I've seen in two days that I really like. And I usually hate gold wheels... don't know what's going on here.

Stacy,

The car looks perfect! Great detailing, nice kit, aggressive stance, excellent contrast with the wheels, and perfect ride height! Congrats on a job well done

This has got to be one of my favorite cabs here on the 6: simple, elegant, classic

I can't thank-you guys enough for all the kind words !
I would be lying if I said I didn't like it but it is what drives me to do these crazy projects !
I have so much admiration for people who have the passion for cars that when these same people throw a compliment back,it is overwhelming!
I have the GT3 rear bumper painted in my garage waiting to go on but I like the car so much right now I would hate to ruin the clean lines.
I like the GT3 rear because it is about one inch lower than the stock bumper thus making the lower sides blend with the back bumper better.I am pretty sure it will look as good with the new bumper but I would be interested in any thoughts you guys may have?


Stacy

If I were you I would keep the car as is. If you're going to do the GT3 bumper, you "have to" have the GT3 front as well IMO, and as good as that may look, your current setup is miles better. The GT3 stuff is certainly more agressive but I think it suits (sp?) the coupe better.

Slap on a supercharger instead!!

NICE...I like it! Flows well with the entire car. Because it's black, it's aggresive but not overstated or "Rice"

My votes for the gt3 bumper. How are you going to do the exhaust? Cars looking very nice.

I have a real good stainless exhaust guy local to me,done plenty of exhaust systems to my other cars in the past.
He is going to stop by the house in the next few days to have a look,but I think we are going to just modify the fabspeed I already have.

I must admit I was a little skeptical about the GT3 rear on a cab but it looks very nice.

I thought I would like the gt3 rear better, but for some reason, I like the original bumper more. I think its because the dual tail pipes flatten the stance more, so to speak, since they draw an observers eyes outward.

Maybe it just has to grow on me The details on the GT3 bumper look very cool though.

Either way, the car still looks great. Decisions, decisions...

Not the Gt3 rear. It looks nice, but i don't like the centered exhaust concept.. And the original looks better on your car! I must say that is one sweet custom bodykit :O You are amazing!!

I am leaning this way as well !!!
Anybody need the GT3 rear bumper.... !!

I am going to take a couple more days of looking at it just to be sure !
But damn the stock bumper looks soooo clean on a CAB..!
Coupe probably a different story !

*****EDIT*****
Don't need a couple of days....gonna go back to the stock rear
Cab just doesn't suit it.....coupe..forsure !
Looks "S-i-c-k" from the back,really wide.
