Clear corners, blackout lights, painting anything in the interior, billet grilles, leaving the side moulding on. I'm sure there's more I just can't think of them.

I mostly notice bad wheels. something that looks like it belongs on a mid 90s grand prix and is 16"., should have just kept the clean stockers on

-Euro taillights
-Cheesy looking "pep boy" chrome wheels

There's actually a clean looking SOM Camaro SS that I see rolling around Coronado Island all the time with the above combo, everytime I see it I want to throw up. He's done some other really tacky things to it that I can't recall right now.

-any aftermarket tails
-any stickers
-rims larger than 18" (19" is ok under certain conditions)
-wrong badging
-that high civic style spoiler

I am ok with any of the hoods, as long as they are painted to match the car. Body kits are a personal preference, and dont really annoy me, they just arent my style.

euro tails
DTM tips (yes i've seen a camaro on autotrader with quat DTM style tips) bleh
3rd gen wheels on a 4th gen. just saw a camaro V6 riding through campus today with the old firebird salad shooters on it. wow, gross
glossy berger panels with body colored letters. (if you're gonna do a berger panel, do it semi-gloss with the metal letters) just MHO, but i'm biased on that cuz i just finished by berger panel today
the high supra style spoiler
the wings west batman style spoiler
that ghetto testarossa side panel body kit
mirrors on the underside of hte hood
and i dont really like C6 wheels on camaro's TA's it sort of works, but they need to be 18's.

euro tail lights, aftermarket spoilers, tires sticking out past fenders, most of the usual stuff mentioned above. windshield banners, hate them on all cars.
4'' cowl? if its properly fitted and painted only. Thats pushing too tall anyways. anymore than that looks ridiculous.

1. Black rims, sorry to those who have em but they look stupid on Red/Black cars
2. "stealth look" on black cars
3. Yellow as an accent color...McDonalds car comes to mind on red
4. Altezza Tailights on Camaros
5. Wings
6. colored tint to include mirror
7. 4" cowl hoods
8. that H.O. hood for the T/A

That is what I can think of right now....

I'm all for cowl hoods on LT1 cars. All the curves on LS1 Firebirds and Camaros make the straight creases on the hood all wrong. Of course if you're running a sub 12 sec timeslip in the quarter and it helps cool the engine, I'm all for ridiculous large cowl hoods on any type of car.

Well, I have two disclaimers first:

1) Assuming we are not talking about the obvious stuff (20" rims, stickers, fart pipes, any rice stuff) and are talking about semi-commonly accepted mods that are just personal peeves...

2) Any mod I might hate there is always an exception to the rule where there is that one car that pulls it off (ex. I HATE the "stinger" hood but somehow ZL1LT1 makes it look good)...

SO, here's my list:

Euro tail lights

Altezza Tail lights

Clear Rear Side Marker (or fronts on 'Birds)

Clear Third Brake Light

Chrome Headlights (any type)

Halos (any type except the projectors)

ANY Corvette rims EXCEPT ZR1's and C5 Z06 rims...

Stinger Hoods

WS6 style hood on Camaros

New WS6 Style Hood on LT1 'Birds

LS1 Front End Conversions (what a waste, I personally like the way LT1's looked)

Any spoiler on a Trans-Am besides factory

Any spoiler on a Camaro that isn't an SS (of some style) or the 3 Piece (the little RS one or the big Dick Harrell/RK Sport one)... I hate the LG Motorsports/Freedom Design 1 piece.

Billet (non-painted) Grilles

Glossy Berger Panels

Black Mirrors (Camaro or Firebird)

Non-Power Antennas (of any kind)

Hardtops (their just pointless on 4th Gens)

Any non-factory or non-RK Sport GFX

Any Camaro Turnsignals that aren't the black housing ones

Trans-Am seats in a Camaro

Firebird/Trans-Am wheels on a Camaro (or vice versa, SS wheels included)

Painted interior pieces

Body Colored CAMARO fill ins

SMOOTHED/SHAVED Berger panels

ANY Rim with a ROUNDED lip :cough: ZO6 Motorsports :cough:

Strut Tower Braces (pointless)

Non-Lowered cars

PARTIAL Whistler Headlights (fawking hideous)

ANY CAR THAT BREAKS THE MODDING ORDER OF 1) Rims 2) Lower 3) Spoiler 4) Hood

Eh, that's enough ranting...
