spray some tire shine in the fenderwells. i think it looks ok, nothing special because you dont really have a theme or rims with it

Fast_94_Z 04-18-2008 08:36 PM

the hood looks like it needs to be resprayed. very blotchy and inconsistent.

QWIK Z of OP 04-18-2008 10:12 PM

is that just a primer stage... temporary hopefully!

nssane 04-18-2008 10:23 PM

i like it. not a huge fan of the hood, but it looks good. murder that bitch out, and it would look incredible.

Matte black is like the awkward/too skinny/too fat cute girl in high school. All conventional wisdom tells you it should be ugly and you should not like it. For some reason, though, it's gorgeous and you can't take your eyes off it.

ok now that everything is prepped get a paint job!

Ls1CamaroGuy87 04-18-2008 10:57 PM

Looks good. BUT the clear corners and chrome headlights look out of place....some black projectors or whistler modded headlights and black corners would look amazing!!!

sweet car man!

tennz28 04-18-2008 11:14 PM

did they take apart the panels to paint or tape off everything and spray? Looks ok but get rid of the clear stuff and get smoked coners.

DUhulk78 04-18-2008 11:23 PM

Black rims! But that looks pretty frickin sweet man!

Most defiantly need some, car looks good though.

once i decide on wheels(machined or painted matte black)then i'll change what i have to on the car

firefighter813x 04-19-2008 07:26 AM

I have all black Z06 wheels that ill sell ya... :)

BREWS02WS6 04-19-2008 07:28 AM

I think just shiney black wheels will look better than matte, especially if you put more black accents like others have said. I like it and think its gonna be a great car/theme once you get her all finished up.

97ramsst 04-19-2008 12:54 PM

It looks like its primed and ready for a nice basecoat/clearcoat now....:devil:


Really its not that bad but a older muscle car pulls off the look much better IMO than a newer sports car.

Momma always told me, "If ya can't say anything nice, ..., Stay out of the kitchen", ..., or something like that, ...

So, I'm outta here.

FLSSLS1 04-19-2008 01:07 PM

are we running moonshine at night?:secret2:

Only on the internet is primer considered a good paint option.

Sorry, don't like it at ALL.

Blakbird24 04-19-2008 02:41 PM

Don't put ALL BLACK wheels on it. Get a machined or polished lip. Ruff 278s or 281s in black with polished lip would look kickass. Also trade your headlights for the black projector headlights, paint the wheel wells black, lower it, and I think you'll find it hard to stop looking at your car.

Camaro Z 04-19-2008 03:56 PM

I think it looks unique just needs a theme here are some things I would recomment:

-Stock whistler head lights
-Smoked clear corners
-Smoked side markers
-Lowering springs (slam it!)
-Black wheels with a polished lip
-Stainless rear inserts
