Yeah, I guess it's just a matter of personal preference. I'm not sure that you have to cut the tabs off to use the GPO's though, they look like that have tabs in the back just like the factory ones do. As far as the street scenes, yeah, that's an option, but just not what I care for.
Downside of starting to tinker with these things a little late, I suppose. Almost bought a daytona new in '97 or '98, but ended up getting a firebird formula instead...all these years later, I finally ended up getting my GTP as a daily beater, and the market for parts has (understandably) almost evaporated. Guess I'll try my hand at making what I want. I'll post results if they don't look like dogsh!t.
