if i recall right, i think the quarters were flared out about 4" and the fenders about 3" or so...but i may be wrong. i bet w/ them on my car, i would get hardly any road debris on my paint...drool.....

oh, and a side not, i think the top of the quarters are steel right?...could your guy make them in fiberglass so we could potentially lose some weight also, isnt the quarter 3 different pieces, the top steel part, the front small piece(does that run the whole way down the front of the car?) or is that piece part of the top piece, and the bumper as well is part of it?...if this is the case, then he would probably have to make a new bumper, the two top pieces, and the two small front pieces, and the front fenders...so thats 7 total pieces, right...would there be a way around that, or are we just going to have to be content...no matter what i want this!

Yes that camaro is nice, I really like that body. And yes, the regular ground effects kits that are out there, including the "RS" appearance package suck ballz. I hate the way it looks like a big piece of plastic stuck on there. It sucks. Look at the Trans Ams they ahve small ground effects along the sides and looks really good. Just make sure it blends w/ the bottom of the doors, and yes, the fender flares would be awesome, but I don't know if you would be able to sell "tack on" fender flares that come on trucks. I think guys want to have the whole fender flare look.

I like the xenon front piece but the back piece doesn't do much. It would also be nice to have a whole bolt on piece instead of the tape and screws. I had to put a kit on mine....a stock camaro sits like a 4x4.

how so...u would be able to fit wider slicks in the back which could only help the higher hp cars...the only other way would be to tub/mini-tub it...but, "wider is better", lol

I think someone should make a rear bumper that somewhat represents the 2002 Camaro SS SLP edition Center Exhaust Facia. Just make it where you can buy the whole bumper with the facia piece molded into it. That way there are no lines. A whole lot of people are looking for those facia pieces and there's not a whole lot of them out there. I personally want one but don't want the tips. I just want to put a couple of corsa Pro series tips out the back. You could do that with anyone Borla, Hooker, anyone.
Just make different size openings for different tips. Kinda like the vipers.
Anyways just my 2 cents.
