Nice I didn't think you were going to go to the Whistler's. I love the look of mine on NBM.

I bet he meant the Halos don't look good because they don't follow the hood line. That is why I do not like Halos. That and to me that ring in the center looks like it belongs on an import but that's just my opinion.

Whoops. Thanks for catching that. My old Camaro had halos on them for about 6 months. The more I had them the more the hood lines clashing with the halos bothered me until I finally ended up selling them.

Halos are sweet, but Whistler's are bad-***. Looking forward to pics of the new mods too.

Didn't you just put that spoiler on there like... last week?

I think you're making the right choice though, the SS spoiler does look a little better and the whistler's looked great on your car.

The deed is done ! They went to LS1Monster off the LS2 boards, really nice guy, and nice car (Black Z w/ Ultra Z hood)...

I ordered the SS spoiler last night and I have his stock headlights... Just have to Whistler mod them and then probably polish them up, a little hazy but not too bad...

I honestly like the Halos and the spoiler, just going a different direction with the car...
