Agreed, the 07-09 SS is bad ***. It helps add some flavor to the stock GT500 those years.

all I want is the 700+ horses. The price is just silly to me.

if money was no object i would do this to a 2011 (lighten that front end) and tell them to skip the hood and the fake scoops. its a custom upgrade so im sure they would not object to further personalization.

I have to say, with the price tag on that car, we can build something identical to it and save someone a ton of money. Actually, for the price tag on that car you could build yourself an 8 second GT500.

We could build a 4.0L Whipple GT500 with a sick rotating assembly, 900+RWHP no problem for less than that.

The most common package we do is the 3.4L Whipple GT500 package, mentioned by someone on the page before. You can make 700-800RWHP like nothing, daily drive it, and smoke a Super Snake / KR /etc.

Look at a rear photo.. The bumper isn't painted like it was on the Kona Blue show car... cheap!

I like it better unpainted. Grabber Blue really needs the black to break up all that blue.

Ditto. And the ones that were painted before looked retarded because they didn't paint the sideskirts.

I don't like fake scoops, those 1/4 windows look good but the non-funtionality would bother me and IMO that hood looks awefull!

I think the reason the side skirts aren't painted is because they're carbon fiber (or faux carbon fiber; I'm not sure, exactly).

Correct, the side skirts and fron spliter are CF......I still say Patriot Bumper is the way all of them should come... The little bit of black left flows nicely from the side skirts...

I agree. I wonder how well paint will adhere to the black plastic? I mean, yeah, it looks great in photos, but how will it look a year from now? Two, three, four... years?
