Default How to make special line of modded Fbodies?

My friend and I were doing some sketching of cool ideas for aftermarket special edtion fbodies (like Berger SS, Black Birds, Z29 and etc). We don't have a shop, but got a good ideas of what performace parts to use and etc, but how would we go about getting aftermarket edtion marketed? I think everyone here would like to see an 2010 Ls1tech Camaro

I highly highly doubt you will be able to. GM's *** is puckered so tight on royalties and copy rights that if you shoved coal up there they could **** out diamonds.

MAYBE, if you had a large dealership you could do something like that (and the Z29 is fake, just a badge and not recognized by GM). Otherwise your only other chance is to try to buy out SLP or GMMG (good luck).

the closest you could come to that is making a f-body club and modding them all the same

go to GMMG and tell them you bought a catback for full price, and demand a job or stock

you could try and do that copyright/design thing thats on tv and publish your designs as your own, but GM would be on your *** with that unless you get on yer knees and do the deed

I think that the Black Berger Panel is becoming a little popular. Me and a couple of my friends have it, but not too many around here. Most of the cars that actually have something done to them get it done.
I have a Stripper model with roll-up Windows, and manual Locks with the basic options, no AC, fabric Seats, no back seats or seat belts there. I was thinking of getting a badge that read: Z28/R, because it is basically a race car..
