Those look great and I just ordered red ones for mine. I have been looking for these as I had a set on my old 97 and have been having a hard time finding them.

Thanks

I picked up a SLP grille off here that said SS and I covered the SS up with a badge from a Chevy Cobalt.

A few of these have already been posted by other people, but here goes:

Speaker fabric covered speaker grilles


Clear front side markers and amber led's, matching turn signal amber led's


Ashtray switch bezel, made by me (it's not actually screwed into the car. I used drywall anchors on the other side to hold it in place but allow me to pull it out, just like the stock ashtray)


Camaro dimmer wheel and export Camaro black headlight ****


Camaro black steering wheel controls


Red gauge needles


Full red LED interior, including red led footwell courtesy lighting


Black front bumper support cover, made by me


Black battery cover, fuse box covers, as well as two tone black/yellow wire covers, please excuse how dirty it is. Winter had just ended. (cheap plastic ones, I know, I know...)

Nice to see this thread dug back up to life. Here's something I added - Lynx Stripes.



Since I've taken this shot, I added EmblemPros' stainless steel "Ram Air" emblems in overlap section of the stripes and removed the vinyl "Ram Air" near the nostrils.

made it myself and used 2 rattle can plastic tops to start with and is tapped into both lines recently put led on it so when nitrous is turned on I see it right in front of me. also mounted so needles should be straight up when in use.

God dammit, 01badbird, I love your car. I've felt this way for awhile, but I had to come out with it. There's so many little touches to it that you're not even pointing out.

Thanks to 2002ArticWhiteSS I was able to find some high quality acrylic letters for the front and rear "camaro" to add a nice little touch.
