| That guy is actually a VERY cool dude. He's on the ISSF occasionally. Radiused the rear wheelwells himself with some basic hand tools and the patience of an old guy - and used that car to tow his other cars all over the continent IIRC. | |

| Lose the fake portholes, and I can dig it. Really liking the white treatment on the bumper. Where'd you find this? |

| Whether it fits your taste or not, there's a LOT of interesting body and paintwork on that car. | |

| The rear wheel wells are my favorite. That looks REALLY good. |

| I think some hesitate to love it because of the busy scheme he has going there.
I've always appreciated a much more subtle look.
If that was 1 color with some small accents on say the scoops, or just pinstripes, it'd knock your eyes out.
GREAT job tho. My taste is mine, his is his. | |

| If you search you will find that there is a full thread on this wagon and it lists his mods, and he is a forum member.

| Every time I look at this picture I find another modification I really like.Some very neat changes
have been made to this wagon.So far my favorite is the grill and the headlights.Those Eagle
Model 28 wont fit stock rear fenders.When I ordered my set of eagles the first set was 2 15x7 and 2 15x8s.Those huge outer lips look great but when I mounted the 15x8s to to rear axle without
tires, the outer edge of the rim lips were flush with the outer bodywork.Mailed the 8s back to
Summit and went with 15x7 all the way around.
My 2 Cents

| For the most part I like it. Needs to lose the port holes though, the original GSX didn't have them. | |

| I'd agree on ditch the portholes, other than that there's a lot of good stuff going on.
Kind of like a pretty girl with crooked teeth and big hooters. After a few beers, it's all good. | |

| Those hood scoops are stupid small. They look like they belong on a civic or something. Ditch that and the grill with the weird badges and its a sweet wagon. | |

| The Badge is from a GSX and the grille is supposed to be split to match the GSX as well. The scoops however are actually vents on a GSX.  | |

| I know what the badges are from. But there never was a gsx wagon. It just looks tacky. Almost like the dorks who put "Police interceptor " badges on their grand Marquis | |

| A little over done for my taste, but I like 'em with a little stealth. | |
