Default Finally took care of the exterior performance project

So the black berger panels have grown on me. Plus since I bought my car I wanted to get 69 style Z28 badges and wanted to put them in the same locations they were on the 69 Z28's. After making my own semi shaved (the camaro letters were shaved but the trunk key hole was not) berger panel I also purchased the 69 Z28 badges I found in excellent shape on ebay for $66 shipped. Price of the panel (thanks to A Seven X) was $30, price of paint sand paper and bondo $60, Price of badges was $66, then the price of the Billet Grille was about $100 which is their price on 6 Liter Eater Designs. Total price was roughly $250 for everything.

here is the final product.










Ohh and in the future is going to be a 6 Liter Eater Designs hocky stripe.

Thanks, yeah I figured I would try this because I had never seen it either. I thought it would be cool to combine new and old.

looks great man. my only suggestion is move the fender emblems back to where they are suppose to be on our cars. i know the older ones had them up front, but its just too close to the one on the grille and oesnt look right IMO. im wanting to do the same thing with my rear panel as well.

Where you paint the insides of the headlights black, not the whole inside part but the outter silver parts. I don't think I will but a lot of people do it.

Looks great with the Z/28 emblems on the front and the back. To tell you the truth though, I don't really care for the ones on the side. It doesn't look bad, but I think it would look cleaner with nothing on the sides.
