You call THAT a mod list??

J/k

Looks good so far.. i dont care for the Mecham tips as they are pretty big.. Corsa makes the nicest tips..

Power antenna would be better than chrome..

Other than that it sounds like your off to a great start

I agree with Steve on the power antena and the Mecham tips.

Lose the billet grille. Its a camaro, not a truck.

Other than that, I'd say its a start. Where is the performance parts list?

I just got the billet grille...I think it looks good esp. cuz I like flashy things...performance is on the way! I'm just getting the appearence done first...keep the opinions comming tho! sorry I don't have pics up...once I get everything installed...I will.

btw...Steve2000SS...I've seen ur car with clear cornors...did u put a bead of clear silicon around them so no water gets in? I heard many people do this...what u think I should do?

I don't see how the silicone would hurt but I think on the nicer ones the problem is water coming in through the bulb socket (which sometimes melts due to heat) and not the edges.. silicone here would be impractical for bulb changes.

You could go with LED lights to keep the temp down or use a small bead of silicon to protect from water intrusion..

Heck, the 69 dosent even have wipers..
