Nice car! One thing I always love when the emblems match the paint and would think it would look bad *** on yours if they were White, I really like it when they match a Black car.

sorry man, only black on my car is the rubber stuck to my fenders.
I have noticed the new cowl hoods, but a hood and wheels would be a while from now. I'd buy a blower instead if I had that kind of money to spare.

White emblems? whats everyones oppinion on that? I could maybe pull chrome instead of black...but I dunno about white.

BTW: I'm gonna mess with my duals this weekend to see if I can afford to put the konis on the lower perch (3/4" drop, lol) and am gonna call about tint and get some quotes. If tint is that cheap, I should've done it the day I bought the car

You could put 69 Z28 badges on the front fenders where the factory ones are as well as on the rear bumper or hatch underneath the 3rd brake light on the wing. Then you can do a black powder coated grill with the Z28 emblem on it. I have the 69 Z28 emblems on my car and they look awesome, a really nice touch.

if you were going to do anything with the emblems i would get some nice stainless ones, or go with the retro 69 emblems, with a black billet grille and emblem mounted on it in the corner to match. it would look unique and clean. a WW front fascia and tint would help alot as well. i know you like the snowflakes, but something in a 17" or 18" would really help the stance since you have the ground effects. nice car though, looks like you have a good start!

my tint was only $175ish, but it is the best place in town, excellent job. they do a one piece back window that is heat molded to the shape, then applied. no wrinkles, no lines, looks just like a factory piece. but it shouldnt be more than $150-$200 anywhere you go for a great job.

Nice white Z. I love the ground effects on the Camaro's. I myself have been thinking of doing some of this with my car. The tint, dropping it, and the '69 Z28 emblems and grille with matching ones are on my list for the near future. Eventually I would like a SS hood and some Z06 wheels but that will be a while as I am a broke college kid right now.
