Default Split exit rear valance Pancho paint mod

Been something I had on my mind to do. Never liked the center mount exhaust on camaro's. After painting it I decided I wanted to black out the center. I know I need to remove the valance and shave down the top where it meets the bumper. I not happy with the fitment, looks like a pan attached to the bumper. Anyway you get the idea. Let me know what you think. Also know that I see it from new point of view Im going to paint the bumper marker lights the body color. They look like there out of place to me in these pic's. IDK yet

wonder how it'd look if you curved the top corners of the black instead of a 90 degree right angle. kinda accent the round tips. Nice job!

Thanks, I spent about a hour tapeing and re-tapeing to accent the round tips perfectly to only in the end say nahh I dont like it. It just looked to rounded in the back w/ everything else. W/ the lights, tips and spoiler it didnt flow right to me idk

At first glance I thought of an 05-06 GTO too, can also see a 3000 GT too now that Chaman mentioned it. Im with R6Biker you need to round the ends, but make them flow with the rounded sides of the hatch. barely rounded but not a 90degree angle.

I realize that lol but do I get a pass? Im still sticking to my roots and ltx breed lol. Not that I dislike cme, just not for me... One things for sure now that I look at my pics, I either need to go back to zr1's w/ a dish or I need spacers. Well the conti extreme trac tires are not helping. They have to be the most narrow of any 275/40/17's on the market
