car looks good. Even though it is a 6
Keep up the good work. I really like the vents on the inside, looks like you painted the silver...nice touch.

just a quick question?
why all the mods to a 6? dont you think its just not worth it? I personally think the idea is stupid, unless of course your goal is to beat gt's and cobras. I think you should stop wasting ur money, save up, and then trade ur + cash for a v8.

I COMPLETLY DISAGREE!

My best friend has a 98 V6 bird and he modded the hell out of it. There are 6's running 12's and 13's easily...
Its hard and rare to see a 6 running like that...i have a v8, but it takes more effort and ***** to mod a v6, b/c hes already a few seconds slower then us..

If he wants to do it, let him...Personally i thought your comment was pretty stupid, but hey thats just my opinion..

Exclamation

what really irritates me is the snobbery that a lot of 8 cyl. owners look down on 6 cyl. owners. The 6's are performance cars in their own right! I mean...they can get up and move! They may not have the torque of the 8, and believe me...being an 8 cyl owner myself...I wouldn't trade it for anything...except maybe the magnum V10 viper engine ...But, I digress. What I'm trying to say here is...in the grand scheme of things...these 6's can stomp a good many of the cars out there. So, performance-wise...there's absolutely NOTHING wrong with them. But what does that have to do with appearance? Not a darned thing. His car is freakin sweet. Does it have a shopping cart handle spoiler? No. How about tons of neons everywhere...and magical HP stickers? I didn't see it. And as far as I could tell, he hasn't badged it up as something it's not. He just likes the hood! Looks to me like a sweet **** ride with an owner that is really taking car of it. BTW, I REALLY like the new hood. Good job man. Don't worry about Cbra Kilr...he's a newbie.

I really like the big exhaust tips. They shoulda come like that from the factory.

Just wondering why the page is for an '89 Buick Skylark? Maybe you had a Skylark there at one time and converted it to the firebird page?

Some of us can't afford the insurance on a V8 (a.k.a me and my bro) and we LOVE working on our cars. I do mostly appearance mods cause I have a V6 vert that i'm making into a show car but I will soon start engine mods. It'll make it alittle faster and I just love working on the car, doesn't matter if it won't be as fast as a V8, just the satisfaction of knowing that I modified my car myself.
