That's the RK Sport Performance Spoiler, 3 piece, same one from the Heritage car. I don't really like the one piece versions, they look weird.

Pics of lights. Of course will be much brighter at night, the sun was on the lights, they are brighter when you hit the brakes or turn of course.

Yea I am not exactly sure what they painted them with but they look very nice. I don't think they sell them in pitch black, you'd have to buy a pair and paint them.

Probably can find a good thread on good paint for blacking them out.

So that's the rk three piece spoiler. How difficult was it to install. I'm looking at purchasing one when I get back stateside. Your car looks amazing bro. Aside from the wheels you have the set up I've. Been wanting to do my entire deployment. Outstanding car man

Not very hard to install at all. If you get one make sure you put locktite on the bolts, they shake loose easily. The wheels I got a good deal on and I'm looking to put some center caps on em soon. I finally got 315's all around on it as well. I also ordered the spoiler at a decent price from a sponsor.

Thanks!

Love the CME Exhaust! Not a fan of the spoiler. But that is one sharp looking SS!

Yea the CME I think goes well with the spoiler. I think the setup looks better in person than in photographs since cameras don't exactly capture the same way the human eye does. It's different, I've always been a fan of the fins on the old school camaros!

Thanks!

like the wheels love the hood, don't care for the spoiler but to each his own. Doesn't matter what we think as long as you are happy with it.

Lol I think it looks different in person vs pictures. Though I'm in bad need of a driverside white door, mines falling apart internally.
