I guess the car does need some sort of Grill. But that will have to wait. No reason sto spend Longtube and cam money on a grill...

Hey man you do what you want to your car personally halos and a body kit pushed your car over the edge, and no I don't like the tail lights, deal with it.

Well theres a stoping point. Hood and spoiler would make it look like a SS. Personally I think the hood alone would look silly. but since the spoiler in my eyes is just the right look for most all Camaros I bet that will set it off just fine without a hood.

So calm down everyone likes different stuff:

You like body Kits and halo lights
I prefer clean no nonesence car that speaks softly and carries a big stick.

To each their own...

i REALLY like the way your car looks....

SS spoiler and maybe a SLP bowtie grill with the bowtie flat black would look killer

Bumping it back up just because Im trying to find some good pics of black cars.

Yours is damn good. I love the black/black but got a few suggestions. Get rid of the wheel weights on the side of the tire. Even though they are black they still stand out in my eye.

LT1 lights would look better as it would just be two colors back there instead of the three with the LS1 lights. You could just get one and see what it looks like and if you dont like the looks you can get sell it.

Thought about tinting the rear side marker light? I know you think tinting the tails is a bad mod but the side lights look great tinted on a black car as it wont draw your attention.

Love it in the end though!

Wheel weights were done buy a tire guy who's opinion I trust more then the offset off looks. So they are fine.

May get rear marker lights tinted but never will I put an single LT1 part on this car. I personally like the clean look of the LS1 tail lights.

But thanks...

Whats the deal with the weights? Ive never heard of a single problem with the weights that they stick on the inside of the rim. They have worked perfectly for me for almost the 4 years Ive been using them.

Also how arent LT1 lights clean and simple? They have two colors as opposed to three and actually flow with the hatch. Just curious as why you think they are so bad as to say, "a single LT1 part on the car." You do realize that a ton of the car is LT1 material right?

Oh well, your car and your ideas. Just throwing out suggestions.
