As you can tell, I'm not a fan of body kits.
Ok, I get it. Aftermarket kits.


To Nasty-

New body panels were used on the Firebirds. That's a new BODY, not a kit.

Definately wouldn't pay that for a body kit.

Hower this concept has a better tail panel / light set up than the Kevin Morgan one. Have to get rid of the ducktail spoiler though. Maybe something akin to the 03, 04 Mustang spoiler would look better since these concepts have compound angled rears like the Mustangs do.

firebirds obviously had a much more powerful engine.

Trans Am Depot is apparently getting ready to build the fifth gen wannabe T/As. Hot Rod featured it a few months back.

Not horrible to look at, and all of the body panels are built to custom, but in the end, it's still a fifth gen Camaro playing dressup.
