Will throw mine in the mix for some of the exterior changes I made. Subtle changes for a cleaner, OEM+ look, but also slightly more aggressive at the same time.

- T-types (except WE4) all came with chrome bumpers, even with the W02 blackout trim which I think looked odd. Wanted color matched bumpers, but not fiberglass as they have no impact protection. Used a set of factory GN bumpers, had the small bumper guards shaved off front and rear, then color matched. Retained the impact strips for a factory look. Also changed out the lights for GM clear versions vs amber.
- No badges added after the car was painted except the small "T" on the fenders. Cleaner look, plus "3.8 SFI Turbo" doesn't apply since the car has a 4.5 stroker.
- Factory wheel well trim removed
- Header panel emblem hole filled
- High beams removed and replaced with factory trim rings with mesh for added airflow. Low beams replaced with Holley Retrobrights. GN black trim corner lights vs stock chrome. Rear lights have Digi-tails LED sequential boards.
- Competition Components one piece extended front air dam vs stock split ones (FMIC so no scoop down low)

hey guys, still here. We need to get things re-aligned properly, so I'm making an exec decision. Entries for March/April close today. Anything later than midnight CDT isn't in. I'll run a voting thread tomorrow for 3 days. Gotta get the month on the page lined up with the actual month it is. ck80 is doing an awesome job but I just need things to match if that makes any sense. lol.
