The hood is growing on me, and dont even want to think of body work involved in removing the rs kit so it will stay on.
I took off my GFX and let me say it was easier than putting in the slp air lid lol I like the car and the hood looks good with the spoiler, just drop the gfx

And what did you do about the holes left on the body and bumpers?

^ I just left them. they are so hard to notice anyway. The only way you can notice them is if you are laying on the ground and looking right where they are. Sometimes people can't even see the black plates that I still need to take off Just unbolt/clip off the gfx then drill off the rivets that are holding the plates and you are done. I liked the side skirts on my gfx but i hated the front and back... and it looks much lighter without the "gills" in front. but meh i could go either way i suppose.

btw i'm a girl who is NOT handy with tools and I was able to do it all myself.

I feel like your car needs an SLP grille to give it some more black from the front, idk that's just what im thinking but the car does look good with that hood.

I think that looks badass buddy. Don't listen to the haters about the gfx, I have them too and I get more compliments on my car because it isn't like every other camaro out there. That hood looks great on your car

Black backed halos/stockers would be good or tinted lenses of course...
