With the recent talk about the Shinoda kit, I like to know your thoughts. I've been thinking for a long time about a Callaway Aerobody...What do you guys think?

Callaway, LPE, Shinoda, Snake Skinner...or leave the damn thing alone

What? No choice for "none of the above?" Sorry, but we're stock except for the Borla exhaust...

I think the Callaway is gorgeous. The Shinoda kit is nice looking as well. However, if it were my money, I guess I'd be more inclined to keep it stock. I really like the unique 1990 style.

My vote: "Leave the damn thing alone"
I think it looks great the way it is

I LIKE STEALTH...STOCK IS STEALTH

Now if it is a real CAL or LPE then that is a different story!

So I say LTDTA

I didn't vote because I've only seen pictures of the body kits on a Z. I think you need to see the car in person to make a choice. The Callaway LM looks wild though.
I guess I'm in the "leave it alone" camp because like Bryan says "stealth is stock". Ya gotta love the look on some one's face after they get smoked & try to figure "what was in that vette that just waxed my a$$?!?!"

OK, but if you "improve the car" with body kits, it's not the same as the original. So, maybe the solution is to have a "stock" ZR-1 and a same year "kit car" ZR-1. That way, you get the best of both worlds!

Ahhh, to dream big! Lily

Ya gotta love the look on some one's face after they get smoked & try to figure "what was in that vette that just waxed my a$$?!?!"'specially when it's a "woman" driving the 'vette! Male Chauvinists be warned.

I guess that I would go with leave alone even though I have the 49th Street panels on mine......
