It looks hot but the rear looks kinda odd with a single exhaust!!

I wonder if I can just use my current Vertex side and rear...just get the front conversion. That would save $1250. Hm $2950...I'll have to start saving lol. Shouldn't be too hard since I have most of the big major mods done...most of my big spending is out of the way already. I've almost run out of things to do to my car
Only thing is that I hope the fenders and hood aren't made of fiberglass. More than likely it is, but it would be nice if it was metal. I lean on the fenders at times when I work on the engine...I wouldn't want to slip and crack the fender in half lol.

I wondered the same thing. And how much fabrication is needed.

I think it looks sick! I wish they made a conversion for the 1LS. But I think it would look ugly with a newer front end on the older LS.

newer's not better to me...
it just seems out of proportion and the lines doens't flow as well as a whole.
just my 2 cents.

I love it but not sure if the $5k would be a wise investment. That'd cover my down payment and sales tax for a real 3G.
