Absolutely gorgeous. The CME really ties the car together, as does it for pretty much all Camaros. Good to see you got the holes filled in on the front bumper when you removed the grill

Looks good. I can't really see the calipers, are they polished? If they are polished then stainless inserts would look good on the CAMARO on the back panel.

My only beef w/ your car is the random red bracket for the calipers.

Thanks... that was a phase...(calipers) i have my eyes on a whole new set of black calipers, slotted rotors, braded lines...

Yes they are stainless calipers, they are actually pretty nice when polished.

But the red brackets have got to go...

thanks again.

Looks awesome! Now remove the G2 badge and you'll be good!

And my guess is he had blackouts on the taillights and the heat gets trapped and melts the plastic on the lights.. It happened to me before..

I don't know why people de-badge their cars, the average joe is going to think you have a "camaro" and not a Z28 or SS.

Trash those halos, G2 Decals, rear clear coners, bit viper, and paint the spoiler then you will be looking more clean. Looks a bit tacky. :S

Thanks for all of the comments, opinions... Ill keep everything as is for now..
I am happy with it..

& YES, that is kind of the idea "de-badging" the car...As coldkillinTA put it...
The "Average" guy is going to get romped on..

Thanks again.. even to you guys bashing my ride!! I don't think it is too bad for a car with 250K on it... ( car itself)
