The first set of Camaro pics looks like an RC car. And then the other ones just look....wrong, imo. They all look funky as hell. But, to each their own. Callaway has a kit for the Camaro, i believe its called the C8, not sure what the kit itself is, but pics of the car can be found @ www.callawaycars.com in case you're interested

I've read that first post 10 times and I still don't know what he's trying to say. Judging from the pics I think he wants to see how ugly you can make a Camaro?

I think he wants to make his 4th gen look the same as the RC car...i say originality is good, but the overall look of the car wouldn't be that good, imo.

Anyone know who makes those rims on the red SS ? and if they come without those nasty centercaps ? other than that, why are we allowing rice to take over our f-body's ? i think its time to flush out such garbage IMHO <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

Which red SS do you refer to? There are three of them. If you mean the top one....its not even a real car. Its an R/C car from HPI. The "nasty centercap" is how the wheel is held on.

Now onto the "Rice" comment. Yeah those goofy looking imports (and some domestics as well) are a sorry site, but the cars above would look quite nice with just a few tweaks toning down their wings/body kits.

I know the one on the bottom left is a Japanese body kit that is pretty much impossible to get in Japan now. The one on the right looks like a nissan 240 front bumper

To be totally honest with you, I would give my teeth to have my SS look like the pictures of the red RC car up on top. But I would do it for pure aerodynamic reasons since I run my car in Open road racing events. It would be a killer look on the street ta boot! Since I would have the power to back the looks. If ANYONE ever made a kit like that one I would be the first in line for it with a fistfull of cash. But thats just me!
