lose the hatch piece and retint your tail lights black...not maroonish and it'll look better. Also, smooth out the berger panel and the headlight pontiac logo. nice work

i need to figure that out too. that seems like the only challenge with this. I'm going to get my car and my brothers camaro right next to each other and check the differences, measurement wise.

they look to be the exact same dimmensions, just with different designs, but i'm not sure. if thats the case it'd make life a lot easier.

T/A lines and Camaro lines don't match up. It doesn't look good to me.
