You are not the first to mention that, I may look at it again the future.
I still haven't installed my Hooker Blackheart Exhaust, and I am now leaning towards pro-charging the car. That will mean upgrading the rear end and tranny first and tightening up the frame rails. I am in no hurry. The car makes my smile every time I take it for a drive.

Just a personal choice. The entire car is black/silver/Grey except the rear end. The rear end has Red Tail lights, the red Brake light, and the Redish Orange Chevy symbol. It also matches the Red letters on the license plates.

I really wish I had the patience to save up for a blower, because I know I'd absolutely love it, so my 150 shot will have to do until that day comes

As for the rear CAMARO lettering, I actually kind of like the red outline with black center that you have there. If you are looking to tie it together with even more items on the car, you could switch to SS badges from an original black car. Black SSs came from the factory with red outline badges (vs. silver for other paint colors), just like your current rear lettering. I think that would be an interesting consideration.

Great move IMO. Really cleans the look up nicely.

Yes I love it! It does tuck up nice, I can still do speed bumps with no problem even with the car lowered on Strano Springs and Konis.

Yeah my car is on stranos and konis as well and a speed bump ripped off my borla system and bent it so clearance was an important factor in my new exhaust
