New paint work on the SS I wiped down the car and took a few pics of the progress so far on the exterior of my car. I had a Heritage grille installed and painted satin black, along with the LS7 Camaro Concept scheme in satin blac I added '69 SS emblems as well. I still have some work going on but I probably won't get it finished for the next few weeks. Then it'll be time to save up for more crap. Thanks to Will for the inspiration and for the paint shop reference. I'm not a photographer by any means and the lighting sucks but here's a few.

Looks good
The "SS" on the front grille is crooked and for some reason the back ones look to be rotated clockwise 180*. Maybe I'm seeing things, but they just don't seem right...

The front emblem is just a little off. I'll fix it when I take the front back off for the lower grille install. The rear is identical either way. I thought it may have looked off too so I flipped it and it was the same.

i think black stripes would look a lot better. but everything else looks great, i love the black accents you have given the car, very subtle and did not overkill it!

Thanks for the compliments fellas.
It was originally done when Chevy rolled out the LS7 Camaro Concept car too. I'm well aware of Will and Kat's car, that's why I thanked him in my original post for the inspiration to do it on mine. He even directed me to his paint guy who did mine, and did an excellent job on both too.
