Well I just moved back to the area. I am originally from Peoria but have been away at school down in Carbondale at SIU for the past few years. Just moved back in August and am working for Caterpillar out at the Proving grounds in East Peoria.

Sorry guys, I just forgot about this thread and figured for those of you who wanted pictures you'd PM me about them...

Here's pics of my old T/A and the new Camaro with the tails done...

First the Camaro... Don't mind the primered SS Spoiler lol...





And now the old T/A...

lol, I'd probably say that you don't like them then. I personally think they would look killer on your car... especially with the black/chrome lip wheels you've got. But then again, it's not my car.

Damn man those things are blinging. I was afraid of wet sanding them too much but now I might have to take them off again and wet sand the s*** out of them to look like yours. How many coats of clear did you use?
