Yeah.. I reread your post after I made mine.. Definitely sounded too good to be true lol. Could you PM on how much one of the 93-97 T/A splitters would run me? Odds are I can't afford it right now, but I'll see if I may be able scrounge some change up.

I think the 7 bars in real life would be mega catfish like, but hey it's worth a shot.

Mark, all these damn ideas you're throwing out make me want a Camaro.

6Liter, have you thought about a 53 Corvette grill on a Camaro? I wonder what it would look like.

Not a whole lot. Main cost right now is welding time, grinding time, finishing time, etc...

Nice, your price for the powdercoated black one is fantastic. I hope you can talk Sean into hooking us up on a similar deal if we want it powdercoated in a different color!

Hey 6Liter, here's another pic of a Callaway; maybe this more high res pic will help you figure out what to do. I really think the grill is a little better if it is closer to flat like this or the Sunoco.

^^Yeah, but I'm going more for overall Fifth Gen Camaro look...



It will go with the roof I had build that is almost complete, the dual exhaust, etc...

Actually, I think Trans-Am guys should just do a dumped exhaust and add diffuser fins to where their exhaust pipes exit

i was thinking more along the lines of this actually. it retains exhaust tips but looks sick. there is even room between the slits for the rear plate

In the future, when posting excessively large pictures, could you please just post the link to it (as I did in the quote above) rather than posting it? I unfortunately don't have a 32" monitor, and hate having to scroll left and right to read other members posts. Thanks in advance.
