Thanks for the comments thus far! As for a color scheme.. well its pretty much black and silver. The yellow has been there for a long time. Like I said, I was seriously drinking, cleaning out the garage, thought hmmm and painted away.
The valence is still the same. I havent touched it yet but I did pick up some new bad *** supre thin tape and a clear adhesive to line it from the bottom/inside once i get the tape up. I did pull the exhaust up to fix it from hanging like it was in the previous pic you saw.

Thanks guys! 
The few things I am considering if the car stays around are the following..
Whisper Headlight Mod or Black Halos
Smoked style clear corners
Clear side markers
Export Tails
Black wings West or Carbonfiber R/k Sport grill
Stainless CAMARO inserts
Stainless nose emblem
Chrome dipped Calipers w/Black powdercoated brackets
19" rear Z06 rims
I think that would finish the exterior of the car. Under the hood just needs a form of boost and a matching cam. After that.. well it wouldnt have anything else to be done to it so i'd call it done.
Yay.. or Nay.. on the above mods
The only thing the yellow matches is my new Bilsteins. The rest of the suspension is red BMR tubular.

Im thinking NAY on the 19's unless you go 19's all the way around. But even 19's are kinda pushing it IMO. Dont get me wrong tho.. I have seen a few of these cars pull off the 19's really well. Definitely YAY on the stainless inserts and nose emblems. And if you go with smoked clear corners..dont use that VHT shade spray.. just buy them new and give me your clears!! 
and BTW... car looks awesome!!!

As for the 19s. Its just at some angles, such as pic #6 from the top, the car just eats up the 18s and makes them look tiny. Esp in the rear. As for the smoked clears. I planned on buying new, no VHT here.

Black Halos: YES! I think the Halos would look alot better than Whistlers headlight mod.
Smoked style clear corners: NO! The ones you have now look awesome.
Clear side markers: YES! It will go with the clear corners you have now.
Export Tails: YES! They are kinda pricey but do look good.
Black wings West: YES! Carbonfiber makes me think ricer, plus RKSport just sucks all together.
Stainless CAMARO inserts: YES!
Stainless nose emblem: YES!
Chrome dipped Calipers w/Black powdercoated brackets: YES! but I would to polished instead of chrome.
19" rear Z06 rims: Unsure! I think your rims look fine, but if you wanna go bigger you might as well get some 20's <--click, and for the price you can't beat 'em.

Uh... holy sh*t. Thats cheap. Wonder what a 20 would look like in the rear. Probably too big. Hmmmm...
EDIT: adding comparison photoshop... I kinda like it
