It's a bit of a poor rep, the bonnet buldge and grill aren't right and the front bumper fits badly and is the wrong shape:

thats the main reason its with me, to make it look alot better starting with the bonnet as they put the bulge on the wrong one, is a 67 bonnet and should be a 69 or the other way around
oh and he knows its never going to be a perfect rep
the top of the bulged rear arch just below the top vent is a big give away, its got the wrong line to it

Get rid of the corners on the bumper too. Should be much rounder.

As soon as I saw the pic I smelled a petrol/oil old car smell
I don't particularly like anything but the standard shell.
P.S the car in the film wasn't a car, it was several cars and most were just shitty V6 shells converted, no GT500 were ever in the film, too fucking rare and expensive.
