Well, glad you like it. Personally I haven't seen an aftermarket nose for a thirdgen that looked better than factory.

I'm wondering if I should go get my firesuit ready.....
Personally, like justin said, its not my taste. I like the 85-92 front ends with the 91-92 gfx the best. But, its your car, decorate it to your prefrence.
BTW, looking at it, how are the marker lights gonna look. It doesn't liike liek they will fit in there correctly. And it overlaps the front fender quite a bit too.

Its not going to get the looks and opinions that you may be searching for by "being different".
Whatever floats your boat. In my opinion I would throw it away.

Don't take it to heart man, no one is bashing you for it..we're just simply stating our opinions..after all, you did ask for them

Its definitly different, I'll give you that. I'm actually interested as to what that will look like mounted up on the car. You better have progress pics up after you get the swap done.

Cool. Different, but cool. If you wanna go a better route, get the rest of the kit, so its not as tacky.

I've seen that on a few cars. Personally it's too ricey for me on a muscle car. Aesthetically it looks pretty good, but I'm a traditionalist when it comes to body mods.
Like some of the other guys said, it's your car, do with it what you want. Who cares what everyone else thinks? Just don't destroy your old one in case you decide to swap it back.

reach over and hit the caps lock key....
sometimes there is a reason that buying a certain part makes you different....sometimes its cool and sometimes its because no one else wants it.
now, if you go turbo and have a nice big front mount in that big opening it would be pretty cool

But be sure to post pics. Good-luck with it man.
