Pics of the new edition to the Family let me know what you think Just picked her up a few days ago its a 2002 Camaro SS with only 15,000 miles
this is the old ride 99 ws6 Full bolt ons and gear and stall 415 hp.
let me know what you guys think the SS has SLP Y pipe, Loudmouth, Lid, smooth bellow, and some transmission tuning. Just tryin to get some ideas. Ive never seen the black with the orange 35th anniversary stripes like this. it really stands out.

that definitely does stand out. I like the ride a lot. The only thing I can think of being a negative here is if you plan to do more appearance mods to the car (i.e. diff wheels, interior, engine bay) since you would most likely have to stick to orange color accents for it to look right imo. I think it looks clean and nice the way it is but its up to what plans you have for the car.

Yeah I was alittle leary when i first heard it had orange stripes but i do see the red ss badges kinda clash, im not sure if they have orange ss badges. I have only had the car a few days and have had many people compliment how it looks. I dont plan on doing much to the exterior beside maybe some halos and dark tint and corsa exhaust tips. Keeping with the orange theme the ls6 intake is also orange with e black bmr strut tower brace will try to get pics up soon. but thanks for feedback and more is welcome. thanks

the red badges and orange aren't working together good. I like the orange stripes though. Get some stainless ss badges, a stainless bowtie for the back, and replace the fill in letters in the back with a stainless camaro and it will look awesome. rk sport sells them .there good quality. i have them on two of my cars
i think if you keep the amber turn signal lenses instead of going with clear ones, it'll help spread out the orange theme some.

In my opinion, very cool.
I saw a Camaro SS in Bfrankerz 4th gen mod guide, and have always liked that color combo. You don't see very many Camaros (any generation) in a black with colored stripes combo.

Anyhow, very nice car man, and I think those badges you posted would look way better on it than the red ones. Can't wait to see the underhood shots.

That is the first time that I have ever seen that combination on a Camaro, to be completely honest with you I think that it looks SICK!! It has that whole halloween look to it and I would keep up with the orange accents. When getting new wheels, I would get some with a black center and polished lip, it owuld make your car a show winner for sure IMO.

Halloween Super Sport I like it. Its definitely different. I agree with you halos tint and corsa tips will help. Also check out muffinbuster on ebay for some good stainless stuff for the car to make it even more unique. It seems it was modified already did the person take care of it besides just the outside?

i found the car in Williamsburg, virginia not to far from where i live. I bought it from the original owner and it has 15,100 miles on it. Got it off an older guy who had an older 70's camaro he was rebuilding and a sick 500 hp new gto. He said he never drove it stayed in the garage and it shows. He only did minor things all the car has on it is slp loudmouth, slp y, slp lid, slp smooth bellow, underdrive pulleys, bmr strut tower brace, and some transmission tuning, he bumped up the shift points and made them alittle crisper. But other then that the car is stock for now lol. I got it for a great deal he was a family friend and sold me the car for $15,500. So i am happy with it and have been getting alot of looks and compliments me personally have never seen this color combination and the things i have planned for the exterior i think will make it look even better. Thanks for all the compliments and ideas i appreciate it, it was a rare find that i couldnt pass up and the car is pretty much brand new and i plan to keep it that way. Any ideas on interior its just plain dark grey right now i want to get some embroidery work done on the seats and get some new floormats. and does anyone know where to get the gauges that have ss on them i saw some silver ones that had ss on the rpm side on some guys car.
