New pics of car with !side molding mod(56K beware) I have been real hesistant to do this mod, but I finally got the Camaro garaged recently, so I did it today. It really did declutter the lines of the car and made a nice improvement. Except for rear rotors, I am pretty well done with the exterior appearance of the car now. 
I forgot to add, if you do this mod, expect your thumb to be pretty sore afterwards from rolling all that tape

It does look good! I have been wanting to do mine, but have been worried about the paint being messed up underneath...anything wrong with any of the paint when you took them off?

Here are pictures of a few more recent mods:
Seat vinyls from Brent Franker:
The 18x10.5s wrapped with 295 BFGs, I love the tread pattern.

I am as bad of a clean freak as you can imagine, the only suprise that was under them was a lot of dirt which came right off.
