Looks really good. I'd get rid of the license plate frame and get a clean aluminum or brushed stainless one to match your wheels. Maybe dress up your engine bay?

I haven't really been a fan of halo's but what about doing the whistler mod to them? I think that would look good.

thanks guys. I just polished my tips so they a chrome as can be. I plan on getting a cme, but I am still watting on the guy who is doing the valence replica. I dont want to do a whisler mod on the halo's because I have a whole chrome set up going and that would take away from it. What else can I do to the engine? I polished just about anything thats metal already.. I was thinking about getting some of this stuff. what do you guys think?






dont know about this one. I think i might have enough decals already and dont really want to many.

Well I would say change the tips completely. I see that you said you polished them, now you need to switch them around It looks as though the right tip is on the left side and vice versa. Just my 0.02 and get a cleaner smoother license plate frame.

And I am not a fan of the Halos (due to the three rounds mashing on the two rounds of the hood) but to each their own. At least they are chrome to match the rest of your ride.

As far as your new ideas, I would say get the cap that still states the engine oil on it. It's dressy while maintaining a clean appearance. The vent HVAC *****, I would do just the *****; that way it is an accenting item as opposed to being an overdose all in one area (by having the back plate). Furthermore, I would stay away from the "stock numbers" lid badge (you never know when you may end up with more power ) and the SLP looks clean as is.

If you want some more accenting in the engine compartment, I would look towards ridding of the yellow-top dipstick and buy a polished version; the same for you brake fluid res. cap.

Lastly (sorry I wrote so damn much ), IMO you can NOT go wrong with the addition of a BitViper mod!!!

Chris

EDIT: and some covers (in black with polished lettering) for the engine bay to finsih it up

well something that the judges somewhat like is how you show it off. i would get a nice lexan stand showing off your modds or you can get one from afterthoughts auto i think the name is. and maybe some mirrors under the hood. but that is one nice camaro

good luck
