Default Finally got cme installed
I ordered the 3 inch cme tip and valence from 6le a while back. I just recently got everything finished and installed on the car. The cme is hooked up to a borla adjustable catback. I'm very pleased with how it turned out. Not the best pictures, but you get the idea.

Looks good. The only thing that I would personally do is hit the pipes behind the tips with some matte black just to hide them better. Then you wouldn't see anything but the tips really. Maybe it's just me.

I don't personally like the look of CME at all, whether stock or aftermarket, but the fitment of all components displayed here appears to be excellent.

You have to be the ONLY one on here that don't like a cme setup on a camaro. I think it takes the car to a new level!! Op, is the tip/valence from 6LE?

I guess that makes me the 2nd lol. I'll stick with my quad tips or no tips policy.

It's funny you mention that, I was thinking the same thing. I'll most likely do that in the near future.

Yes, both the valence and tip are from 6le.

I went back and forth between this and quad tips. I had corsa clones on my last camaro, so I decided to go cme this time.

It does take it to a different level, just not in the right direction. Being in the minority is not a problem for me.

But again, although I never liked this styling, I can certainly appreciate the quality of fitment displayed here. The parts fit extremely well.

Gotta love a clean CME setup. And cosign on painting the pipes black. Would clean up the look and put the attention where it should be.
