Default New Rear Camaro Insert's Installed!

Just installed the insert's a few day's ago, finally took some pic's. There's a few wrinkles here & there on some of the letter's. Had some trouble with the "R", which has the most noticable wrinkle but you can only see it when lookin up close & clearly at the letter's. Overall tho, it came out good. Im satisfied with it for the time being.

Insert's are black, and i just ordered the Z28 3rd brake light vinyl. Ive yet to see anyone around here with it (in my city), so decided to go ahead & get it. Just doing some small lil upgrade's to the exterior......



Pic taken at night. i know "why the hell would u take it" but just did, to see how it would come out......

I love the inserts.....but puttin em in is the worst thing i've ever had to do. I've done it twice on a buddy's car and by te time i was done with those little buggers i had gone through a pack of cigarettes and a case of beer. They look good though, don't mind the wrinkles, everyone has them, and if they don't, good for them!!!!!
