What do you guys think about this ZL1 bodykit?

I don't know whether I like it or is it too much?? What do you guys think?

http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=315964

I am not promoting this kit, nor am I promoting the vendor,nor am I affiliated with the vendor or product in any way. I simply wanted to share this look of the zl1 I found in the middle east section of the forums.

Thanks,

I think it looks awesome! I'm just not much of a show car guy. I like the subtle nuances of the ZL1.

I like it but I don't know how I feel about the front end. Yea me either.... I like subtle things that makes my car simple yet unique though..

Not liking the front end either. Honestly it looks like a stick on body kit. I like the rear valance the most.

I think it's fine if you're trying to do an extreme LT or SS makeover. For ZL1, it's a bit over-styled and too ricerific. Nothing about it says there is a ZL1 underneath.

Also, I believe there will be insufficient airflow through this front fascia to provide the designed engine and brake cooling effects of the OEM ZL1 fascia.

Agree totally on the front... I kind of like the back though and if there is actual wind testing this may be a better speed package?..

Another -1 on that front end. The side skirts are so-so, but as was said previously, it suffers from two things:

1) Overstyled. A lot.
2) The front of the car is purpose-designed. This feels akin to plugging up brake cooling ducts with 11tyK LED Fogzzz or some such nonsense.

Function >>>>>>>> Form

If they can prove it does a better job at the function than stock, that's different.
