I can appreciate the craftsmanship, but the look is not for me.

well, it does look like a clean job around the headlights. I do like the fender flairs.

The craftsmanship looks first rate....but it is not something I "personally" would do. If he likes the look of the Z car why not just buy a Z car :crazy:

It looks like it was well built, but I am not a fan of the headlights. I do however like the blended fender flares. If he was going for the look of the old Z, then I would say he got what he was looking for. :cheers:

i think someone put alot of time in that :eek: the bottom line is if he likes it thats all that matters....it grabs your attention and looks A1 ...most people on here won't probally like it because it's different...i think different is good and shows the owners expression and thats what this hobby is all about...not my car costs more than your car ... :cheers:

Is that a genuine C5 Datsun 280Z? Actually, I like the look, and it looks like great work. Give us more details. Year, HP, etc.

I think it might be the test bed for the C6 fixed headlight system.. :lolg:

It isn't for me, but you have to give him :thumbs: :thumbs: for the clean way he blended those lights into the front end. Very nice job.

No thats a C4, nice work, but a waste of a Vette IMHO. Kinda like putting a Viper kit on a Vette, just go buy a Viper.....or a Z car.

The craftsmanship looks very good but don't like the headlight treatment; I feel the same about the C6.

Another Corvette ruined :nonod: Though it looks like a first rate job, the Corvette does not need styling cues from a lesser car. Hope he plans to keep it. :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe: :_dupe:
