de-ricing the car...PICS I decided my car had too much going on, a little overdone. Here is the plan to tone it down:
Phase 1:
Phase 2:
(In progress)
Phase 1:
- remove headlight covers
- remove Z28 from grille
- remove side moldings
- lower car 1.25"
Phase 2:
(In progress)
- replace Xenon front with Wings West
- replace black billet grille with DG Motorsports "CAMARO" insert
- MBA billet CAMARO inserts for grille
So you already lowered it? I think this is a good move for you. Looks like you could of kept the Z28 emblem on the grille but whatever. I think the thing thats going to make the best difference is the front clip that you're going to change. Hopefully it all turns out well.

Is the area behind the grill paint black? Might look better if you couldnt see the center part behind the grill... just a thought.
Looks much better without the headlight covers.

I like the black billet grill. Elegant but not overpowering like a polished one would be. I also like the Z28 in the grill.
But hey, it's your car, I can do with my T/A what ever I want, right?
(I like the other changes)

Thank you for taking those headlight covers off, I never liked them and I think the car looks much better without them, your going in the right direction with things, nice car.
