good looking car! are those 17 or 18 inch zo6's?

if i were you... i'd take the camaro windshield banner off, and maybe put some camaro decals on your red calipers, that would look kinda cool.

yea, we get kinda competitive over the cars ... ill admit he wins normally since as of right now he's faster and has the money to stay ahead. the only reeeeeal plus i have on him is that mines a 6-speed and his is automatic. Also, i got that backseat those vette drivers seem to be missing

anyway, thanks for the compliments and keep em coming lol
Next week i plan on nightshading the sidemarkers and turn signals as well as the whistler mod. any other ideas?

very nice car looks great I agree on taking the camaro banner off and I think the berger back panel would help set it off imo

the hood is fine, the drivers headlight bracket is broken so the light is a little sunken in which messes the whole thing up.

Looking pretty good! Take some time and think about what you want to add/delete. You don't need to do everything at once!

i went to take off my BSM last week. 5 out of the 6 looked fine to come off but one peice looked messed up under it so i left it. IMO camaros can somewhat deal with them on anyway..

And as far as teh Berger Panel goes.. i used to feel the same way but the more i think about it the mroe the black would go with my theme.
