Looks good!
But just one thing, I think you should change the quad tips to the CME tips, IMO.

Very unique car for sure. I just think it would look much better without the gfx's and with the dual cme instead of the quad, like others have said. Good work though

I think thats just the way the Xenon front piece looks......

Nice looking Camaro. I like the appearance mods you've done to it (thats the same ground effects setup I want), but I am just not too keen on the color. Extremely clean car none-the-less.
