Man, alot of haters. People go all gaga over people bolting on some stupid color rims but can't appreciate teh fabrication and personal work that goes into one of these projects.
Looks great, crazy skill and craftsmanship. Would love to take this thing out.

The build looks GM factory

Haters gonna hate, no doubt. When you build a more unique, attention grabbing car, come see me...

Some of the stuff I agree looks a little gawdy but for what its worth I like it. The paint looks fantastic, some people may not realize the amount of labour goes into doing non factory paint so damn well. The engine looks ridiculous and mostly in a good way. You should try to get some vids with some sound

it's a polarizing design so of course people are going to say "looks ugly", haters gonna hate.

Regardless, pretty cool and unique, while it's not an Aston Martin in the looks department, it would turn my head 180* and break my own neck to see it drive past me on the road

Loose the sidepipes, put hood scoop back on and get properly matched/sized wheels/tires and ride height back together and it will work. As it sits it looks like a deformed matchbox toy.

Couldn't put my finger on what was making me hate it. You nailed it.
