Give the kid a break..To each his own. I would never do the black hood mod..I guess hes going for that carbon fiber look, but even if I did get a carbon fiber hood I would paint it the color of my car.
I think the sidepipes would look better if they were more tucked under the car, and not so far out, but then they would hang even lower.
How do you place a jack on the side of the car now?

I dont know why everyone is going crazy over the hood. The guy said he was planning on getting a SS hood for it. The side pipes are ok man. I think it sticks out too far out though but it still is unique and stands out. I think it looks clean. GL w/ future mods and let us know when you get the sound clip uploaded.

It's a modern application of a classic look. Good job. Doesn't look any worse than some other mods. It's just not what people are used to seeing.
People get a mind set of what looks right to them and crap all over somebody that does something that doesn't fit that "look."

the more and more i look at it, it looks better and better. i think what most people ahve a problem with is its too flashy. if it were flat black, it would blend in alot more and not look so out of place. also, as i said before, you need front Ground FX b/c the side of your car looks alot lower than the front due to the pipes. if you did those 2 things, i'm sure you would get some different responses. also, if your going with the old musle car theme, then i would instead of having a black hood, paint the hood white and get some hocky stripes and a duckwing spoiler.

A black bonnet is classic late 60/70's. Go look it up.
I'm not saying I personally like it, but get your facts right first.

I think it looks Fu..ing UGLY !
It's not tucked in nicely. A good side pipe is like the one on Roush Mustang with ground effects that have fabricated space for them....but non on Camaro...sorry dude...you got no taste !
