Really want to see how the Roush P-51 will look like, and seeing pictures of the SpeedKore Mustang, due to the center exhaust

Man, that's so blatantly plagarized. What can you do I guess...

I hope to see all these this year out there. Been an exhibitor at SEMA since the early 1990s...So much cool S*** to see out there....

what do you sell and what's your booth number?

I like what Kenny did with the rear and sides, but for a few exceptions. I wish he would have gone with the lower GT350 core support and hood, up front. Too much gaping Toyota/Lexus radiator opening. JC has a better lower grill. Upper suffers from the higher hood and core support. Also doesn't allow for tying in the turn signals like JC has done.

With the wider front fender, Kenny has a better door and fender blend than JC, although the upper front fender vent, being a necessity, could have had a better shape. Really like how Kenny filled in the door and rear fenders to create that forward sweep of the crease without a 350 style vent. Cleans up and simplifies JC's scoops. Creates a nice area that fills-in the gas door and provides a start for the spoiler. I would have preferred a flatter rear deck into an integrated spoiler, but Kenny's flows really well. Like the GT tail lights, but not the ones exposing the LEDs. Raxiom's would have been better, I think. An excellent rear view, but too much of a GT-R lighting look. Maybe only two would have worked, although four would look good with quad exhausts. Don't like the bumpy rear trunk valence, but it ties into the center exhaust area. Kenny should have come up with a more unified design of his own with his own badging. Would be interesting to see if the window pillar black-out would have worked better than the 3D render.

All-in-all, this is an excellent build, based on what you are starting with and the amount of sheet-metal work required. Would like to have seen him start with a GT350.

Lights

Kenny, GT-R and Raxiom. Of course, Kenny fills-in the complete tail light housing by using four and having a wider rear quarter panel to work with. Still like the Raxiom lenses more, especially when illuminated.

Kenny's Render from MotorTrend

Too bad Kenny didn't get a chance to include the rear panel the way it was rendered. Would have completed the rear. Couple other things I noticed were the hood and door handles. Would have been cool to rotate the door handle and housing to follow the crease, like the render attempted. Also like the way the hood overlaps the grill area. Eliminates the troublesome gap and alignment issues. I think the rear quarter and spoiler is how it should have come from the factory for the base GT.

The VMP car is by far my favorite.
