Default Camaro bumper/headlight mod

I really like the way the Iroc and LT1 have the area on the bumper around the headlight blacked out, it seems to give a more menacing look. So I made a template and purchased some black vinyl, cut it out and put it on to decide if I like it or not before I paint it. I'm sure this may get mixed reviews cause not everyone likes the same thing on here, but I am kind of liking the way it turned out. It goes well with my berger panel, painted hockey stripes and wistler headlights, just curious to know what you guys think. I will get some pics from a distance later but here they are for now.......

I kinda like it. But it also kinda looks like someone gave your car a black eye lol. Personally I would leave the vinyl in case you change your mind about it. I think it looks just as good with the vinyl as it would painted.

I like it too. Looks good. I may think about that for mine too since I have the silver and black thing going too.

Very cool and different.

It looks ok. As stated keep the vinyl just in case you change your mind down the road. But it looks good with the whistler set up.

LOL,I thought about the black eye thing too, makes it look more angry.

i like the look. it definitely ties in the theme of your car. +1 for keeping it vinyl though, just in case.

I think that just convinced me to do it to my car as we have the same theme going on except mine is pewter!

I would love to do the fog light area as well like you did the headlights.
