I hear yea with the black car. Looks great, you just need to get the rear CAMARO filled in with either red vinyl, to match your emblems, or like I did get the polished stainless steel version.

Thanks guys. I agree I like them looking stock on the outside also the only thing I might change is like said the grille and maybe do the whistler mod. Ill prob keep the stock wheels believe it or not I get tons of complements on them. Most people that arent f-body nuts think they are aftermarket lol. I dont want to rice it out I like what GM did with the look.

As much as I love the way that it looks when its clean its wayyyy to much of a hassle. I will never buy another black car either. I actually was looking for a NBM SS but they were not as easy to find around here specially as clean as my black one.

I think the car looks great! I love the simple look! I would like to see that car with an SLP grille but other than that it looks good!
