I would get charcoal 35 aniversary stripes, and switch over the emblems to silver. Stainless inserts. Your tint looks kinda bluish-purple, could be my monitor, I would rip that out and get black limo tint, at least 20%. Other than new rims you are golden.

im thinking maybe switching to the silver emblems. i love my wheels, thought that would be one thing id never change go figure. how does the silver emblems look with the red in the tail lights and side markers?
btw i forgot to mention i have the polished camaro letters for my brakes after i decide to paint them.

I HATE BLACK SS'!!!(too bad I own one) Everyone from 98-02 looks just the same. Everyone does silver or red on their black SS. I decided to be different and went with white hockey stripes and new manta stripes. I put in silver fill ins and smoked the taillights and put diamond clear turn signals on the front. I've yet to see another one exactly like it!

looks good to me.
i'd say whister headlight mod, smoke the corners
silver emblems (still black, but with silver outline...)
and stainless rear inserts.
i wouldnt do a billet grill on it. the one you have looks badass.
A set of wheels could change things up, but honestly it looks good.
I'm a fan of less = more.
the only exterior things on my car are wheels, and stainless inserts.

looks nearly perfect if you ask me, only thing i would do is add some stainless steel camaro fill-ins for the back...
anything more to that car would be too much, anything less would be a step backwards.

nice looking car mang:
first thing is DEFINATELY whistler mod headlights does SOOOO MUCH to Camaros!!
second rims, some fikse fm5s would look gorgeous but would probably break the bank
third, black outs on the back and corners, these are either love them or hate them mods, i did it because it makes black cars look like everything flows together like some one piece body dragster
everything else is beautiful, great looking car!
edit: posted before i saw pics summer posted, look at her first post, fourth car... black car, black corners = sexy

LS2 Bait,
Are those 11 inch wheels in the back or did you put 315s on 9.5s? Either way, how much is it lowered/which springs? And what did you have to do if anything to keep them from rubbing?

it has the eibach set up from slp. soon to swap out the front springs for lg's. no those arent 11's. i have the 315's on the 9 inch rims. i have a pair of 11's that will be going on soon though. and i dont have any rubbing isses. i didnt even when i had the 11's on. but i do have an adj panhard bar.
I would have to go with what everyone else is saying, the whistler headlight mod and some inserts.. You should change the front SS,Side SS's and rear SS to a different color... Maybe get some chrome overlays or something. And the rims, I have always liked a black/black car.. You can get the rims painted or powdercoated black and leave the lip chrome.. I don't know, those are just some of my ideas..
