What do I need done?
So I recently picked up this car a couple months ago. I like the red and black scheme I got going on, but thinking it needs a little bit more to stand out. What do you guys think I'm missing?
Here are some of my thoughts: Get a SLP bowtie grill, re-paint berger panel gloss black (its flat right now), with SLP badge and left side and some undecided z28 badge on the right. I just tinted the windows 5% all around. Black billet shorty antenna. Of course I would like a Sunoco hood too

If it were my car, i would debadge it and +1 on the sunoco hood. I really like the clean look it has. Maybe some sort of subtle pinstripe? Lt1 style taillights would also look good.

Kinda thinking if I want to go back to a red Berger panel with black Camaro inserts.
Maybe some corsa clone tips will beef up that rearend look too.....hmm so much to think about! Lol

isnt much I'd change, looks good as it sits.
frnt: SLP grill... MUST. that's all you need
side: keep as is.
rear: keep the no-tip look. Seems like the finish on the berger looked pretty good when I saw it in person, but that's your call. Think it'd look better with different camaro fill-ins, maybe mirror stainless. And also maybe swap out the Z28 emblem for one of these to match the LS1 badge on the left. Or one like this for the berger, but keep the fender ones as is.
..perhaps some adapters to bring the wheels out

I want the Berger gloss black because the rest of the car has the gloss black shine so that semi flat just seems out of place. That LS1 badge on the panel is going because looks tacky IMO.
And I was going to ask you on the wheel spacers, what size did you get and where?

I did custom adapters from www.motorsport-tech.com. size really depends on the offset of your wheels and the size of your tires and all, and how far you want things to come out. Best to measure for your own application. You'll want to get your fenders rolled as well, so that's another thing to consider.

I also removed the tacky LS1 emblem on the berger panel.
I think I'll be doing the wire tuck mod in the engine compartment soon (even though thats not the outside appearance lol)

BTW on the LT1 lights you dont need to switch harnesses just a tiny bit of wiring and your set. I would say just the grille an youll be fine for a while and give yourself some time to think if you want to do anything else. But for sure with that grille in there it would be soo sweet.
as far as the lights

Take a walk around your car a few times then look at some pictures on here or Google and it will all come together for you. You could get ideas all day from members on here which is a good start but in the end it is what apperance modz lie in the eye of the beholder !

I need to update a few pics, but I just added a SLP bowtie grill and had the windows tinted 5% all around.
Also took off that tacky ls1 emblem on the back and made my own custom billet antenna.
Thinking about having that rear panel area back to factory red and have black "camaro" inserts. Then slightly tint the tail lights
