That red Camaro looks terrible. The owner should have just bought a TA bc from the looks of that Camaro, he obviously wants one.

Why in the hell did that guy add the TA spoiler on top of the camaro spoiler. Looks rediculous. I mean if youur gonna do at least replace the camaro spoiler with the TA spoiler. It kind of reminds me of the riced out car in the movie Cars with the triple stacked spoiler. ha

That red thing is the ugliest abomination; I have ever had the unfortunate displeasure of seeing. Someone needs to grab that guy by his mullet and smack some since into his head…

Being a TA owner, I love the wing and at the risk of a massive ***-ripping, Im going to say that I like the black Camaro.. I dont like the other body mods nor do I like double stacking the spoilers. The red one is nasty... With some refinement, the black Camaro would be cool...

Okay the only thing that I see on the car that I like is it looks like brake cooling vents on the rear fenders. Is that real and functional or did some ******* go to autozone and get a tape on vent? It looks like its actually sunk in the fender....

it looks to be molded but due to its placement, I seriously doubt it is functional, and by that I mean actually cooling a brake that is inside the wheel hub...

I like to see something different done to these cars. Im sure you ALL can agree, there isnt much that hasnt been done. I mean let's face it. LSx platforms are dated so aside from an engine swap, what more is there to do?

The only thing Trans Am on my Camaro is the hood and T/A wing. Everything else is my own creation and designs. created/molded front bumper, did the same for the rear, added and bulked about 1 3/4" to the wheel's front fender, and rear quarter panels, made my own design for the side ground effects, used T/A mirrors and then added to that to contour with the fenders, and etc. So far no one on tech ever seems to like it at all but I love it. I have thought about putting the Camaro ss hood on it and even the ss spoiler cause it doesn't look bad at all with that either. But then I have just another bolt on car. I already have whats there which took me a long time to do and Quiet frankly I'm tired of messing with it already, so its going to stay the way it is more than likely. Those first 2 pics are old ones and I was 16 when I did it and I gotta say, I look at it now and it does look really bad lol The last four pics are last year. Since then I painted it a Tangerine Kandy which I'm loving that much more than the red lol. This is surely not everyone's cup of tea but I like to stand out of the crowd, after all people watch our shop work and wither or not they like what we are building All in all it brings us our Customers because they see the great work quality. what I do is not my job but what I love doing and I'm truly blessed for that! Anyways sorry for the long post just thought I'd chime in and give a say about it all, If you got any ?'s let me know thanks and God bless. Ernest
