You will have over 100 holes you will have to repair after you remove it. I would think twice about buying it and find one with out the ground effects..

What are you thinking man? The Y3F package = t3h win. Look at the side profile of this car versus a standard Z, and see how much better it looks. Not to mention the spoiler that should have been there to begin with.

98silverz28 IMO you should listen to GoldenBird. Camaros need the Y3F package to look good unless it's a SS. Dont take it off, but if you do I buy the two front pieces off of you.

If you get it with the RS GFX at least replace the front 2 pieces with one like the RK Sport or the Wings West.

A least will hear you coming from all the whistling the car will be doing from the holes.

And the factory puts two holes per bracket and put 50 brackets on the car. Not to mention the three big holes on the quarter panels from the rear spoiler.
