Default Need opinions on my new firewall.

Let me know what you think of my firewall. I want to know if I should have the shop redo it to its original round shape instead of this design. Not sure if Im liking this design yet. What do you guys think>?

Kinda street rod looking... I'm not feeling it. But like Rob said its hardly visible once the engine and trans is there..

The rounded look is better ....Camaro2nv is nice.....but its your $$

If your cool with it that is fine but there are sure alot of weld seams on the puppy. How many pieces. 3 plus the filler strips at the bottom.
