That isn't rice unless the spoiler is rediculous, can't tell from the picture really. It looks odd with stock wheels though, so I would say do something about that first.

He already has a LT1.
I agree when it comes to Camaro's, but on Birds I like the LS1 style better. But I still think you should keep the LT1 front on it. When I bought my Camaro I loved the 98-02 front end (which it came with) but then I got tired of people thinking they were getting beat by an LS1, so I'm putting the LT1 front back on.

man i think your car is gorgeous....
If i was to see that anywhere at any parking lot i would park my **** next to it and take pictures galore....
In terms of an LT1 its amazing, if you want to keep that front end (and its a toss up. The LS1 frontend on birds owns, but you already have the ram air hood, etc) and its a considerable expense to swap it over....i think if you keep it as is, just accent a different color, like throwing the CETA mod in there, maybe some black rims, something to complement the strait up white.....
I love your current look tho...

I don't like it right now. TBH if I have any doubt at all about anything for my car, then I know what the real answer is...
Lots of money?? 98+ TA conversion (TA front/rear bumpers, sideskirts, spoiler). Not too many hardtop 98+ TA's.
Easiest "fix" would just be to change the hood to a 96-97 style LT1 WS6 hood and throw a TA high rise spoiler hatch onto the back.

Nah; don't do that 98+ conversion. Not too many 93-97 hard top's either. An LT1 WS6-style hood and front end flows SO well and isn't as obnoxious (as flared and aggressive--they still look good, but not AS good as the LT1's) as the newer ones. But hey, that's just my opinion. Take care.
