black halos, ditch the grill and leave it alone after that. it might look fast, but can it go fast? After those things there id make it purr instead of just looking like it can

Clear corners and grille for sure, and some better looking wheels.

Halo's don't flow with the lines of the car at all. You just need to clean up your wheels some, do the whisler mod, and get a grill. You'd be good after that!

Yeah, no halo's. Leave em, and get HID's, the black SS grill, stainless CAMARO inserts and that's it. Then make it purr

I think it looks great the way it is now, so just spend the money on some good waxes and other goodies to keep it looking good

JUST SAY NO TO HALOS (I had them and hated them)... Do the Whistler mod instead...

Add some clear corners with black housing (to match the Whistler mod) and get a nice black billet grill with SS emblems on it...

NORMALLY, I would say get a charcoal grey Manta stripe kit (which would look good) w/ a satin black insert BUT your car would also look great with stripes, like this car:



or better yet this STYLE stripe but in a dark charcoal:



Finish it off with stainless/chrome SS emblems and rear CAMARO fill-ins...

Ok , let me rephrase it to some nice looking chrome rims. Those are plain and pretty beat looking, some nice *** chromies would really stand out on an all black car like yours.

wheels, try to get something other than the following... ZR1's ZO6's, C6's, Any of the "Motorsport" wheels, TT2's, Smoothie II's, RUF wheels, HP Wheels Try to get something like an HRE, iForged, CCW, Fikse, Forgeline, BBS, SSR Multipeice wheels only...Then get a new front grill, Whistler Mod.

However dont do any of the following if you dont have at least 3 performance mods. If you dont have them, then here they are in order. Free mods, Induction, Catback, Headers. Then onto asthetics. Maybe even some nitrous before asthetics, who knows.

If you want to know how I did my mods from the time I got my car...It went like this...Complete Stereo System, Intake, Headers*, Catback* all at once. Then Nitrous, then Wheels. I would totally do it diffrent if I could. I would have went, I,H,E,N or FI,W,S...
