I like the picture with the orange hockey stripes. Just as I thought it would look...pimp!
Now get some classic torq thrusts on there with the charcoal spokes and you'll be all good.

PlowTown,
That was one hell of a clean looking Z. I don' t know why, but I've always loved the look of the 98-2002 Camaros in white. They just seem to have a unique style about them. Usually white looks bland on most cars, but the fluid lines of the Camaro really set the color off.
My thoughts.

Rick, I used a fiberglass resin to fill in the camaro letters. Sanded it down then put a little bondo over that, just to smooth it out. Then sanded, primered and painted. Yes it is Satin Black. Got the rear panel from a buddy of mine localy off a parts car, picked up everything at a local pep-boys

Also, look into black wheels. I'm not generally a fan of them, but I like the ones with the polished lip. I've been considering these or the charcoal ones mentioned before. I also have the Berger mod and a black stull grille on the front. It definitely breaks up all the white.

Wow this thread is back from the dead!
Rick, your White Z looked mad good before you sold it for the SOM!
You can do a ton to a white car
appearance in sig.

White = Camaros
Black = Trans Am
No exceptions.

not what i meant... what i meant was the CE had a black pannel on the bottom near the exhaust....
someone was having me look for a car that was 98-02 and black with the bottom pannel a different color (grey/green/white/whatever)
i said it can't be found... so i was proving myself correct by trying to search for it
