Looks great! I love the rear end because that panel works well on all Camaros and the tips look sick. Only thing I would change is that the front end looks a little plain, being almost completely white and all. Needs some sort of dark grille or something to break it up.

Otherwise, looks stunning!

Actually I do plan on adding a black billet grille after I paint the front back with the black headlight buckets, and I found a vintage bowtie for the grille that I have yet to see anyone use on a F-body.

Yes they are B&B triflow exhaust tips

Thanks

Mainly because the front bumper and front fenders are screwed (scratched and chipped) and I have a big chip on the hood so I'd rather just repaint the entire car, but I'm probably just gonna repaint the door forward.
