Love your work, Jinx. Could the slot be functional for ram air there, or would it have to be cosmetic-only like the SS?

The funny thing is that I got the idea from the IVER grille. Its intended to be bulkier.

Well i noticed that the hood latch and radiator cap location gets in the way. The idea was that the scoop would feed and dump into a box directly in front of the engine (like the stock air box but the hood capping the top when closed). So functional.

I like it a lot. Looks REAL clean. The grille and low profile foglights really sets it off. Don't worry about the haters.

I like the original one.

Love it, awesome good work. I like the mail slot moved up on the hood like that. I am not crazy about the slot down on the facia like it is now. With it up on the hood it could be made totally like ram air as described above and look better.

Jinx, you are incredible! The hood and stripe look great and the grille is perfect!

Nice work, Jinx! Really diggin' the air scoops integrated in with the lower grille. Guessing that these would be functional and would feed air to the front brake rotors?
What are the two scoops in the air dam for?

Just like you said. Lol. This was something from my original design that i couldnt get rid of. I loved it. So, yes, its intended to be vents for the front brakes just like the on GT500KR.

I used a photo from jcamere94z28 (hope he doesnt mind). It had the perfect angle I wanted and had a cool night scene. But anyway here is the quarter view of the revised Jinx Z/28 design.

Note:
-iForged P40 Wheels in midnight silver
-Chrome is Black Chrome on the foglight bezels (the idea continues on the taillight trim to add more subtle differences for the Z/28 against the other models)
-Fitted with vented carbon ceramic brakes discs

We will be selling hood like that soon

BOO!!! I can't see them from this computer. I'm rice! Something to look forward to when I get home though

I know I don't have to see them to say nice work, because I've loved what you've done in the past.

Thanks for sharing

It always makes my day to think what a Z28 could look like or be.
