I think the car has plenty of potential. Get that nasty red crap out of the interior, and put the right airbox back under the hood, and you'll have something.

I think the camaro airbox would be a great touch if you could make if fit like factory. I agree get rid of the red dash, its r!cy.
O'fallon and st charles huh, right on. I'm in springfield MO.

the intake was kinda hard to fit you have to cut out some holes and make a few custom parts .. also you hood latch dosent work very well any more so after awhile i just started using hood pins, soon im going back up to pick and pull to get some new dash stuff seeing as how no one likes it .. my other car is a zx2 and its all riced out so im just kinda used to the spraypainted dash stuff .. any who ill take more better pics later ..

i did a test-fit of the camaro intake on my bird and there was no chance of it fitting... what did you cut to even get the hood to close part-way? I don't particularly like the interior plastic pieces painted red, but it doesnt look like you did a bad job with it or anything. If you like it, keep it

Just remember this with cars, and you will be good to go.

Less is more.

Having a neat/ clutter free interior will ALWAYS make the inside look so much better. Potential.

well 1. you have to cut some holes in the front support where the bumper is so that itll even get good air flow 2. you have to cut away the under side of the hood with a sawza the same shape of the intake.. 3. also you ahve to cut all the extra plastic from around the intake it self like the pieces between the intake ports
tomorrow ill take some good pictures of it for you .4. funny you can still see where i left the old intake
