Smile 1st pic of #502

She's a 97 SS, build #502. I bought her from the original owner about 2 1/2 years ago. Just put the ground effects on last week and plan on repainting in the next couple of months. Hope you guys like her.

It annoys me they make a bunch of ground effects for Camaros (although, most are pretty gay (ricer)), and Wings West only makes a single one for Firebirds :\ I like yours though, even though you can barely see it.

Sharp looking Car..

Personally I'm not a fan of anything under the Car.. I only put the RS Spoiler on the back of the Deck Lid and painted it Black. I like it and it gives the Car a little profile..

take the ground effects off. you will regret doing that to a SS one day.

edit: the only camaro that will ever look good with ground effects are 82-92, most likely because they were built with them.

Like most of the others I'm not a huge fan of the ground effects, but I don't think they look bad, I just think the car would look better without them. Nice LT1 SS though.
