Looks good bro, are you going to be doing the wheels too? I saw a thread where you were asking about how they would look in black. Just curious about that but car's looking good, i see the sunoco is on and ready to be painted.

Also think a 6LE dual exhaust single tip valence would look good, with your exhaust setup. Just my thoughts though...

The wheels are staying as is. The quotes I've been given by several shops are upwards of 400 and that's just ridiculous and to me just doesn't justify the headache and cash....I'll have good quality pictures ready as soon as I get the hood painted, I can't wait!
A 6LE CME is most certainly on my do to list.
Thanx for the compliments of the Berger, it definitely grows on you.

looks perfect!

everything seems overdone on forums like this. in general though, most camaros/birds i see on the street are pretty much completely stock, with maybe rims. Every once and a while i see a person who's really fixed up their car. I've seen like 3 cars out on the road with berger panels

Looks good.. I've been thinking about doing it for a long time but still not sure. And as far as being over done or played out, if you drive your car on the internet..then maybe it is

Eh, not really....I rarely ever see it done around DFW. Just because its done quite a bit on the forums doesn't mean its overdone. We only make up a small portion of F-Body drivers.

i think the main thing i dont like about the berger is where it meets with the qrt panel it just looks tacky to me everything else about it i like. like if i see one from just the rear it looks great but from the side it looks akward imo
