I've just never cared what people did to the lt1 bodystyles...they still look too dated and ugly to me.

Some of those kits do seem to help though, but the wings look aweful.

I think things have become cookie cutter partially because there are very few tasteful hood options so people are limited to SS and cowl types. Doesn't help everyone insists on shitty looking zr1 wheels or c5z wheels. Both look worse than stock and are just as common as stock. The ls1 body style can look like something that is still rolling off the line...but those 90s looking ugly wheels pull it back.

as far as the LS1 VS LT1 body style goes, the Camaro imo looks much better in LT1 form than LS1 form. the LS1 camaro just looks too much like a catfish to me



as for the T/A i think the LT1 WS6 is the best looking 4th gen of them all but the LS1 WS6 isn't far behind.

Remember back in the day when Matt aka Crackheadmatt was king **** lol .
He was doing mods to his Camaro that made people wanna follow him .
God I miss those days when the 4th gen was still badass and had a ****
ton of people who drove/modded them

lol when i was 14 15 i always dreamed about getting a camaro and putting a body kit spoiler etc. on it. then i turned 16 bought a firebird formula and decided i like the look of a stock car and started hating body kits

qft

camaros require drop, !molding, and the little stuff to get on the right path. Ive always preferred that route though, never into the ground scraping and huge wings.

(hypocrite = ta wing and 2" drop )

Im not feeling the wing but i love that hood. And of course i love the HRE's.

i've always disliked and still dislike 93-02 camaros that dont have ground fx (rs or wings west) and wingless is ugly IMO. i dont like the ??-92 camaros that dont have ground fx either. just too plain and nakid looking. i love the RS ground fx on both styles.

dislike mustangs that are wingless also. and i dislike the 82(?)-93 fox mustangs that dont have the GT factory stock ground fx. my 87gt came with the ground fx and i love it.

the RS and wings west kit is acceptable imo. and rs and rs style wings.

when i first got into cars tho. i had bad tastes. i had a huge batman wing on my 94 mustang. then i bought a fiberglass black widow body kit but never put it on. sold it to a mexican for a few hundred and he told me how he was gonna double stack his wing by putting a 94-98 wing on top of a 99-04 wing. then he left.

i'm still a fan of huge cowl hoods. i dont think that'll ever change. my 04 cobra has a 5 1/2 cowl hood..or atleast thats how i measured it, its labeled as a 4". so i'm not sure. i used to think the 3" cowl hoods were huge then i got the 5 1/2 in the mail and the 3" looks like a pu$$y now.

didnt this maroon camaro belong to a guy in tampa?


i think i remember going to his site and it said he lived in tampa and he also had a trans am. i think he used to work at either the Riverview (small city in tampa) winn dixie or the bank next to it. i used to see it parked in the parking lot away from all the other cars, one day it'd be the maroon camaro with the big wing then the next day it would be the trans am.

Man growing up in the 90's I loved all of that stuff! I remember everyone and their mom had those Enkei wheels and Borla catbacks haha. Times have changed but I still dig those Enkei's and some of those cars with body kits.

AnnivSS

Id give anything for a set of those wheels.

Haha, I remember all that. When I was in high school (92-96) the F40 style wings GFX were huge. Same with the vinyl on the rear window, cars either had a big emblem, or thier name...my buddies '88 Mustang was named "Megablast". He had the huge sound system, unpainted "Mach 1" hood, and unpainted Saleen wing. He also had quite a bit done under the hood, although he ended up getting rid of it when it started knocking (who'd of thought a 250hp hit of n20 would be bad for the stock bottom end, lol). He used to joke that his n20 shot was more than his car's stock hp.

I remember the F-Body scene ten years ago... I had my first LS1 back in '00, but had been into car mags and F-Bodies in general since I was in HS, so I was big into it back then too. I remember seeing cars like the ones above in Super Chevy and Hot Rod, and I even remember reading the Camaro "RS" package stripe and GFX install articles. Yeah, it seemed like every Camaro that made it into a magazine had the GFX. I also remember how everyone was all up in arms about the LS1 coming out, and reading Chris Frezza's (from CamaroZ28.com) review of the car after he got a sneak peak at it.

I can honestly say that even then I didn't much care for the wings and gfx, but I hate it much more now than I did then. Some of it I thought looked okay, if it wasn't too crazy. The stripes still look killer though.

There were some other wierd trends at that time too...I remember there was a kid with a CRX that looked like a roller skate, he had like 13x10" wheels on it or something like that, they were tiny in diameter, but stuch WAYYY out of the fender. There were quite a few cars running around like that.

I drove a beast in HS...a '73 Chevy K10 P/U with a 4" lift and 35's.

You know, I wonder if ten years from now, we'll be looking at pics of cars now and making fun of the berger panel, ceta mod, and corvette replica wheels.

Oh, and yeah, those Enkei's still look great. What was that other really popular wheel...it was called the G2 or something like that, right? Oooh, and I remember seeing my first set of Fiske wheels on a new SS at a club meet back in '00. Those were NICE. That car was gorgeous...pewter with the Fiskes and B&B catback.

^^Man, the vinyl, lol!

My buddy had a Red 1995 Z28 right out of highschool (93-97) and he had a red chevy bowtie in vinyl on the back (like 24" x 18") and a "3" (for Earnhardt) in the middle and that was the coolest **** in town, lol!

I remember a Red LT1 Trans-Am as well at the street races. This is when 5.0s were finally getting their asses handed back to them by LT1s with CAI and Catbacks and this guy had a blower. Vinyl on the back said "Blown Away" and was SICK, lol!

i guess its because im part of the "new" crowd but i think those body kits and weird hoods are awful. im more of a, the simpler the better, when it comes to appearance kind of person.
