I bought the nicely gutted doors from Mooty. Numbers were already in place, I didn't bother changing them since nobody else ever has the number. It's become my new number.

Given the 28 pages of comments so far, both cars are awesome and the debate will continue. I have me a stupid fast modified 07 turbo and a crazy sounding fast 08 Z06 so life is good though a bit crazy with the haters and the lovers on both sides :-)

Hahaha, its like they picked an old guy to design a car to attract young guys. They certainly went overboard in some areas. I think the car looks great overall but you have to look past a few overly exaggerated details.

Funny that it's an italian company that makes the kit. GM wants to be more italian and the italians want the car to be more GM.
