Finally got pictures of my camaro!! Most of you probably dont know this car but heres the story....
It started out as my first car, a wrecked v6 camaro my sophmore year in highschool. It was the first car that I actually paid for! Anyways, it went from being a v6 daily driver to the 10 second weekend toy it is now. Its still a work in progress but here it is....

yea it needs a good detail! I need to get the cutout switch in the back removed because i put the battery back in the front. I was also thinking about putting some kind of grille on it but some people have told me to just leave it like it is. Im probably going to lower the back end a little and put a catback on it because the true duals with the spohn torque arm scrape everywhere and are entirely too loud.

What a turn around! Sounds like you've come a long ways. Id say remove the red scoop filler vinyl and purchase an SLP grill or something along those lines. Drop the rear a lil (like you said) and give that thing a good detailing! U should put some before pics up so we can see how much work has been done.

no offense but read all the posts and sig before you insert your foot in your mouth next time. the way it sounded you were saying to me was you were stereotyping that the guy was a ricer disguised as a camaro owner.

Good looking car man. I agree, I like the stripe, a black billet grille would look good.

oh i guess i should have posted something about the thread like i originally intended. IMO the car looks great and you have made some serious progress on it. The chrome Z06 wheels are a nice touch as well. and the red stripe if you like it thats all that matters. like someone else said black is hotness but on another note if i can make a few suggestions.....
trade the c5 z06 wheels in for the c6 z06 wheels i like em better on camaro's for reason.
if you keep the stripe i recommend adding some 402 CI emblems in red where all of the z28 badges would have gone.
and also the whistler headlight mod in black, it would compliment the clear front turn signals.
and maybe a SLP grill or black/stanless billet grill
