Looks good for sure. Only things I would do to set it off perfectly

1. Black Camaro Inserts
2. Dark Tint Of Some Sort
3. Diffrent Rims

Car looks great!

I like the wheels. I had the same ones on my S10.

To go against the grain here--

Silver sail panel, roof, door handles, and mirrors
clear corners
!body molding, !all emblems for that matter
flat stainless camaro fill ins to match the lip on the wheels

looks good, like the others suggested, some tint would be nice, and removing the moulding would clean it up.

i never liked the exhaust comin out of the rear on camaros cause it is hard to make them flow nicely with the body lines. I think painten the center star of the rims gloss black might look pretty good, and removing the moldings, i am not a fan of lt1 badge, i prefer none on my car. I would paint both calipers black with polished camaro lettering. Maybe think about blacking out your rear lights and blinkers too, just some thoughts of what i would do with it.

Looks good to me. Ditto on the tips. If it isn't CME then hideaway's, borla's or SLP 2TOL looks the best.

SZ50's man I loved those tires. They were my 1st pair way back in the day. Didn't know they were still around.
