Your car will look 20x better with some smooth aftermarket rims; NO Z06s!!! Get a rim with more flow to it. And I'll be honest, I had to look closely to notice the two-tone
Maybe add a silver pinstripe to separate it??

I would love to comment on the car, but web filters block them here at work.

LOL...tough crowd in here. I think it looks pretty good. I'm not sure about the pinstripe, I bet you can tell the paint apart pretty well in person in the daylight, I think if it was me I'd leave it. I don't think the hood looks horrible, maybe a little too much but I've seen a lot worse.... some of these cowl hoods (not the sunoco) that people put on camaros look like dogshit imo. A nice set of wide 18" wheels and tires to fill in the rear fenders and I think it will look pretty sweet.

My question to you would be "how much did you invest into appearance mods versus performance?" Still like the paint scheme, still hate the hood/ body kit/ and spoiler idea. Still needs rims. If you like it thats all that really matters, and I must say I'm very surprised by the supportive following you have in favor of your cars appearance. I thought saying "R-I-C-E" was letting you down easy. I guess I was wrong...

So everyone's calling the Camaro rice, but there's one driving around here in Jackson, TN with the same hood, 22 inch rims and a 12 or 18 inch carry-handle spoiler...and it's YELLOW!!! Now THAT'S rice...not the OP's car.
Anyway, any change to the location of the paint line?

still havent decided on what im doing with the separation of the 2tone. im stuck between a silver or charcoal pinstripe.
as far as wheels go im looking at either BBS RS-GTs or Iforged Classics. the BBS setup is 18x9 and 18x10.5 and the Iforged setup is 18x9 and 19x10.5. not sure on what i want for the offsets just yet.
performance vs appearance.....i have 7200(labor included) into the exterior body work. there are some slight mods(nothing worth listing) but i plan on a mild cam and head upgrade, intake and exhaust. later on i want to do a LS6 swap.
for those of you that have called my car rice thats your opinion and i respect that but ive noticed in these forums that if the car doesnt look mostly stock from the exterior aside from wheels then there is a negative vibe towards the car.

you have the skinny of it. Most like subtle or tastefully executed appearance mods. Yours is just a little outlandish for a lot of us. I'd be happy less people are screaming out rice than I would have predicted

i really like the paint scheme. Its so subtle that I had to look like 4 times to see the difference. I think a nice dark charcoal line would be just enough to split them, but not to much as to draw attention to it.
Dont worry about what everyone else says about your car. In the end if it makes you happy thats all that matters because youre the one paying for it. If you make it just as much go as show, people wont be talking when they get burnt by 'rice'.
