Your header panel really need the bird emblem. Looks kinda plain to me.

I agree. You need a Bird on that header panel. It would look even better.

I love the way it looks with the covers, but those fog lights really don't look good on that car.
Looking great, otherwise.

I'm not feeling the covers - makes the car too black, kinda loke somebody spray-bombed it without masking anything off. It needs some contrast. I'm not a big chrome fan, but black cars need some chrome, or at least some shiny headlights. The pic in your sig without the covers looks better. On the same token those would look sweet on a white or silver car because the black headlights would contrast the color of the car.

Completely unrelated: How fast have you had that radar trailer across the road in the third pic showing? :D

I think it looks good, but I agree that too much black may be a bad thing.  Kinda makes it look like you want to be driving

Regarding the 'fly' comments.  I think it's just because the covers bubble out so much from the header panel of the car.  I like the black/yellow theme you have with the car otherwise.  It's just a matter of how far the covers stick out.


I'm jealous.  I wish there were enough of us local to here to have meets.  I think all we have is Me, Eric and 84 Fila.  And only one of us has our car running.  Hah!

They look really nice on the 83-86 TCs.  I had a pair on mine, but they were cracking so I removed them, but I've gotten a new pair.  Waiting until I paint the car to throw em on!

:iagree:
me too all the guys around here have SCs, except David and he is at the other side of the state. i see birds and cats but the people dont love them so i dont waste my time talking to them or im passing them going the other direction.

and i thought it looked like a bug at first but it is because they bubble, TC cover with shinny fogs will brighten up the front and a bid on the header will make it blend better. MY 2cents

Heh, I don't think people would have appreciated getting sick because of me had I actually made it! I did try, but my body just didn't cooperate! As long as things fall into place properly i'll be there next year... possibly with a new Bird ;) !!!

Well there isn't anybody within a decent range of me here in nothwestern NC.  Even other NCers are quite a drive from here. :(

As for the headlight covers, they aren't really my thing, especially with the nice headlight design of the fox birds.  But I'm not a big person when it comes to flashy things, so don't listen to me ;) .
