Default Aftermarket RS appearance package?

I was curious if I could track down the RS appearance kit and put it on my Camaro when I get it... The reason is, I am currently looking for an LS1 Camaro and find them to look plain without the appearance package, therefore I am pretty much automatically ruling out any Camaros that do not have this appearance kit. However if I could add this to whichever one I buy, it would give me more options for potential vehicles.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the input. But was question was : Would it be too costly to put those pieces on a non "sports appearing" Camaro? I definitely want one of those on my car when I get one, but I would hate to rule out perfectly good deals just because they didnt have that package.

The painting will be more expensive than the ground effects themselves.

Yeah that's what I was thinking... How much you figure it will be for all the parts? Then what you think it would cost to get it all painted?

Well, if someone just didn't give a crap and wanted to get rid of them and you were lucky enough to get them in the same color, then it could be as cheap as the $50 pitchin' a tent is asking.

However, this is unlikely. I'd say you could probably get some in good shape for about $400, and probably spend at least $600 to get it painted. Just my front fascia was $340 for paint and installation, and that was by far the cheapest quote I could find.

I'd say you could have it all said and done for under 1k.
