Nice car. I wouldn't touch a thing on there, your car is simple and everything flows. Pretty sure you debated about the whistler mod. I would so go for it but i don't think you should. Your headlights flow with the silver. Oh and the wheels look dope.

Car looks great. I would def get the grill and maybe some charcoal metallic 35th anni stripes? Possibly a Berger mod with some stainless inserts

powder coat the spokes with a chrome lip, berger mod with silver inserts and the whistler mod for sure. clear corners , shorter antena, and this is debateable but where your ss scoop goes up id paint it black(not sure what its called) where only the part of your hood that is black is the part that rises starting from the front of the hood all the way up.

When you are this close to perfection it gets real "iffy" to mess with anything but, if I would change anything I would:

1.Shorter antenna

2.Buy a second tail panel and have it painted berger-ized GLOSS black.Stainless "CAMARO" inserts.Save the original in case you change your mind later.

3.Corsa catback (or Corsa tips). Not the clones.

4.And one little thing that gets on my nerves about our cars,many Camaros (including my car) seem to have alignment issues where the rear bumper facia meets the tail light panel. Yours is soo nice I would actually bother fixing it.If it can be.

No offense meant,just some random ideas... Great work man!

Good eye. I think all those are awesome. The car is almost too clean to do a berger panel, however I bet a gloss graphite berger would look SICK. Dang, I almost want to buy a silver Camaro now just to do that, lol.

Agreed times 10 on the real Corsa's for this car.

thanks for all the ideas...guys...i have always been a fan of the clean simple look...so i probly wont do anything drastic but shorter antenna is a quick thing i can do this week, as far as corsa tips i dont like exhaust tips on camaros thats why i have the current catback "hidden" lol
