I dunno, they weren't on his website anymore last time I checked. I've just been selling mine on eBay, or from emails I get through here or Facebook lol.

He did camaro panels, then tried to do trans am panels, but didn't do so well. He only did the "trans am" lettering. no bird, charged $300, and it was jagged and not centered.

I thought the same thing about the camaro panels he was doing but then again I'm OCD. I plan to try one myself sometime when I get time.

I'm tempted as well even though i don't have a camaro. My friend has one and I was going to surprise him one day lol. There's a few the same color at Harry's. I think theres a white 96 in Pennsburg you can grab if you want to try it. You are like right there! and you are only 20 min from me. Surprised I haven't seen your car.

Yanked cigarette lighter, used original wiring for a 5v 2.5A USB port, installed a Jenson auxiliary input and a cd changer adapter. End result is pandora /phone/ navi compatibility with oe radio. Almost looks original :-)

Assuming you're talking about the filler panel, believe I was the originator of it over 10yrs ago.

I've only gotten back in a f-body again 2 weeks ago, but here's a couple of my unique mods...
- The car already had black T/A door emblems, which I didn't care for so I put a white overlay on top to give it a unique look.
- Intense orange LED foglight (30w) & DRL (50w).

366 LED Taillight Filler Panel - PICS!

Well good for you... However, I had the idea on my own when I first attempted it and mine are nothing like the one you made. So I can honestly say I wasn't "inspired" by yours.

Well isn't that ironic, considering you even posted pics of yours, that looked the identical, on my thread before your posts got deleted.

Please don't say mine look identical to yours, it's a bit of an insult. I don't know what inspired you to get all uppity, but I didn't copy something I'd never seen before I started. Even the first one I made was different than yours, and now I make them much differently and much better than I did the first time. Ya know, I lived in Vinton for a couple years in the 80's. Maybe you "originated" that also...

Your front lighting is awesome! I sometimes don't like halos, but really dig them on your car. Heck the whole car is sweet!!

Good call on swapping out the glass for the OEM fogs, came out perfect! You happen to do a write-up on it by chance?

That's actually pretty random for sure. What are the chances. I just built there and so far love the small town and lots of room to play.
