Holy Hell guys!! Seriously........... THANKS for all the compliments on the car! I appreciate it very much!
Just remember, I got my motivation for the look of my car by looking all of the awesome cars on LS1Tech as there are some extremely nice rides around here as you know.
Early on I went the easy route by ripping the stock plastic "Turd" grill off the car, threw on some tint and started spray painting engine part s BRIGHT contrasting colors as I didn't know what direction to go with the car. (what was I thinking?? ) Then I soon realized that its better to hide ugly things rather than enhance them like many do with colored wire loom in there engine bays. Each modification should build upon each other rather than having one single thing that draws all your attention to it all at once. I think it is neat when people see the car for the 3rd or 4th time and say "when did you do that?" when the mod was there all along hiding along with the others. It's like a new experience when they find something new.
Just like anyone else I look at the car an think maybe I should change this or shouldn't have done that or wish I went another route with certain things but overall I'm pretty happy with the current setup. But of course cars are never done and I just ordered some more billet from Thunder Racing before all the MBA stuff is gone for good.
I love the work on VSGLS1's car and would like some one off body parts on my car. I just don't have the nad's to try it on my car.
Jeremiah's ride is sick looking now with the sano clean white paint (roof hoop) and killer white leather seats. It looks SO much better now w/o the red manta stripe and STB. Props for you to have the ***** to take your hard work (and $$) off the car and go another route that in the end was the right thing to do. That car is CLEAN!!
Z'mnypit is another example of a CLEAN ride that is sure to turn heads.
But we can't forget about our resident BALLER Nine Ball Tony who always has some sic rides and I hope he puts me in his will as that is the only way I would ever own so many bitchen rides as he does! LOL
Keep the modding going guys! Greg

Nice to see that others like my car I have spent a great deal of time building something I think looks a little retro yet tasteful. I am thinking about a new look for the interior hounds tooth for the seats.
I myself have several favorites on here (actually All of the cars on here are all great looking cars)
Xsta Z 28
SS LS1 MI's
Z'mnypit
Nine Ball
DVST8OR
tmgsix....

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Steve's old car:
And I like MadIceV8's car as well:
EDIT: I just realized this is a Camaro thread. lol

Steve's old camaro was awesome, but his newest edition is next to Godliness http://www.z069.us/
I've also been noticing slmd's car a lot more lately, and although I can't put my finger on what makes it so nice, I am a big fan of it.

here is a shot of one I just bought, some might know it. Its riding on 19 inch Breyton's. And the previous owner wanted the Z28 to be a SS!
My other camaro is a work in progress still. I am doing some more exterior tweaking to get it just right! But here it is anyway.
