Looks ok. I love the quarter scoops! Hood looks good, front spoiler looks odd, but if it were a tack on type and were like the 03/04 Machs then it would look ok. Roof looks cool, but I wouldn't get it due to sfety concerns. What if ya plop it on its lid???

What if you plop a vert on its lid? I'd be suprised if there wasn't some allowance for that. I'd really like to know what the cost of the roof is going to be.

I know that CDC wouldn't be stupid as to not having any support to reinforce the roof like a rollbar, but I was also referring to the fact that since its made of glass, theres gonna be some pretty sharp shards of glass scattered around if you flip it. Wouldn't want that to get those all over you and cut you up.

Safety glass whether it comes from the roof or windshield is about the same. (and the Windows or roof are breaking in a big crash either way). Just the frame twisting will shatter them. So I'm not too worried.

What a let down. I like the Classic Design parts for the SN95, but this car looks weak. I think the body lines are hard to improve on from pics I've seen from Steeda, Roush, etc.

The side skirts needs some work. I am also having a hard time visualizing the roof--what part is glass, and what is bodywork? Is the whole thing glass (like below)? Or just the center third? Is it removable? I think a straight targa option would be incredible--don't need it to be glass either.

If the lower lip were to match the angle of the lower bumper, I think it would look good. But, as it is now, it does look too much like the front of a train/snow plow.

I like the hood scoop though. Not too tall--should look good painted. Hate it unpainted/gray though.

Hmmm... I just read the text under the car and it says "hood scoop system"? Let's hope that means it's functional.

I also want to see what the mean by "h/lamp treatment" -- did they remove the front clear cover? That might be cool.

I think the ducktail is the only thing I like about it. The rims are just UGLY, the glass top......not so great, and the front air dam just doesn't fit well. Just my opinion........
Im with ya, and I think the ducktail is too small :notnice: [/b][/quote]
I agree. :scratch:

I'm not a lover of that front air darn and I think the fog lights, that they removed should be placed down below, center of the opening.
