Default Red SS with Berger Panel

Pretty much my first mod. I plan on installing chrome Z06's, MTI clearlid, GMMG exhaust and long tube headers. I had custom Berger stripes made up but I've been hesitant to insall them myself. Anyone have advice on installing vinyl graphics? Thanks.

advise, yea. take them to a automotive graphics shop and spend the $20 bucks. if you screw up, you should be covered. i messed up 2 vinyl letters filling in the CAMARO letters in the rear bumper. i had a new set sent to me and a local shop put them on for $5.00. took them 10 minutes and it was perfect.

Mochiba: I just done the same mod myself this weekend and I really like how it turned out. My car is almost identicle to yours. I'm still waiting on my stainless Camaro inserts from ssinserts, but i'll post a pic or two up of what I have on it right now. Enjoy

oops, i just realized that's not the same car. but either way, it's just an opinion. if you want something on that side to even it out kinda, i put an SLP emblem on that side. it looks pretty good to me at least.

later,
Dave

I wanted to be different. You see the slp emblem quite frequently. I first seen this on Z28 Venoms car and I really liked it, so I had to put it on mine.

I'm going to do the back panel on my red Z in gloss black. I like the shiny and smooth look to match my hood and wheels.

Just me, but I think it'd look great if you centered that "TT" in the spot where you shaved the "Camaro".

I had the TT and bowtie custom made and are the same size and font as the stock SS I have only had maybe 2-3 people even say anything and 1 didn't know what that was. I am going for that "stock" or "slow" look.
