Do what you like. Don't just do like 90% of members here and get c5z/zr1 wheels, ss hood and spoiler, etc. I've always thought torq thrust wheels look good on red cars.

Don't do a black/red theme. Its very overdone.

If chrome isn't your style, get polished wheels.
Stainles steel emblems all around the car (doors and rear).
window tint and leave the berger panel body color.
Then work on your exhaust tips.

Make it look like everybody elses red Camaro!
  • Niteshade the tail lights
  • Spray the berger panel black
  • Whistler mod the headlights
  • SS hood
  • SS spoiler
  • Tint
  • Strano lowering springs
  • BitViper antenna
  • Some type of extremely common Corvette wheels like C5 Z06 or C4 ZR1


Seriously though:
  • Paint the mirrors red to match the body
  • Get some wheels. Any 17" to 18" wheels. OEWheelsLLC has some cheap and nice looking Corvette reproduction wheels. I'm more of a fan of the uncommon wheels though, like forged wheels, rare factory wheels, or BMW/cheap aftermarket wheels like Racing Dynamics, various BMW mesh wheels with a nice dish, XXR 962s, etc.
  • Ditch the factory grille. Relocate the front license plate with an SLP license plate bracket, or remove it.
  • Get a hood. I personally like the rare SLP Ultra-Z hoods and Harwood or Sunoco style cowl hoods.
  • Whistler/projector/nice headlights
  • 1996 SS spoiler (different than 98-02)
  • Debadge or rebadge with different style emblems.
  • Detail it, really well.
  • Lower it.
