I blacked her in both eyes I've always dug the eye-liner look on Camaros, like you'd see on an IROC or LT1. I got bored over the weekend, got a rattle can of Rustoleum from Wallmart, then got to it. Attempted using a ruler to get either side congruent, but got frustrated and drew the cut-line freehand.
Supplies: Masking tape, Biology quizzes (extra masking), a Sharpee, ruler and box cutter.
Considering I'm no painter, it turned out alright. I might get some black pinstripes to lay on the edge of the black to cover any jagged edges.
The white spot is bird ****.
I've also been kicking myself in the *** ever since I ripped my grill out. While it didn't look to good all faded, the car looks incomplete without something. Been thinking about a black billet, but this will tie me over until then and make a nicer background when the time comes. Come better weather, I'm also going to give sanding and polishing the headlights a try.
Just a dash of flavor for something different.
Questions? Comments? Lovin'? Loathing?

Once I put the tape on there I couldn't do anything but ask myself, "Oh ****... where do I cut the line!?!?" Just guessed at it and that's how she came out
I would've liked it a little closer myself.
.....Looks great....

Yeah they've been whistled, but they're hazy as hell. You can see the black in the second pic. I painted them with the quickness because every time I looked at the car with the chrome headlights, it reminded me of the alien faces from Independence Day.

No can do..
It's filthy, is only lowered in the rear at the moment, and is running 16" five-stars until I can swing some new front tires for my Z06ers. You ain't seeing it like that!
