I have seen your setup, and it completely owned my last dual setup, and I wasnt lowered. I will probably just put on the duals, and then see where to go from there, Im hoping to lower 1".

If you drive it daily or are concerned with overall handling, check out the suspension and handling forum via the search feature before you just order up a set of springs.

I personally think that some different wheels in another finish, like some chrome, black chrome or polished ZR1's with 17x11 in the back would be the single biggest thing besides paint or stripes you could do for appearance.

Exhaust tips could be alot better too. Something like these fasttoys.net stainless steel dual/dual look good from any angle.

I realize these things aren't what alot of us first look at, but its what 95% of the rest of the "average joe and jane" type people will look at. all just my opinions though, too.

Very sharp car in all, just research the lowering and handling first unless its just a show car / weekend cruiser. In any case, Sam Strano can help you pick the correct lowering set up for how you want to use your car whether it be drag/street, track/street, etc.

Default Q

It looks stock. From what I can see the only exterior mods are the front grille and the rear camaro lettering fill-ins? Still looks good, just needs a little something to set it off. I think some black wheels would really help to tie things together. Besides that, maybe some sort of striping. BTW, the last picture of the camaro lettering reflecting is badass!! Another alternative, leave it as is and just work the engine over, sleeper style! Then you could tear up some of the tougher 5.0s running around here in OK. Where from anyway?

Yeah, stock appearance-wise? Nice factory car. I like your wheels too, but I'm a bit partial.

Yes, stock except grille and camaro fill in's. I live in edmond

Personally, I like my wheels and i think it will make it look 3x better once I lower it a little.
