The stance looks great and I like how you relocated the ASR and Fog light switches. What is the custom bezel made of? Car looks good :)
Any plans for the grille area?

sharp looking car man...i love the look of the drop. i might have to try that on mine, but i have the sport appearance package, so i wont be able to play the " how low can you go" game. but yeah...those are some very funky looking taillights too. i havent seen too many of the euro style lights. but im digging the cme. i take it you put on the cme valance and molded it to your factory bumper cover? or how did you do this?
-
looks great. I do think u should do the bezel in leather though.other than that looks awsome
-

Very nice! love the stance,
those wheels are the stock SS 10spokes, and what color? did you get them powder coated?

thanks. ya i really like the export tails. you either love em or hate em..yup, cme valance molded. the shop riveted it to the bumper about every 6" i think, then used some urethane body filler to create the line and fill it all. then primer with flex additive and paint with flex additive too

yup, gun metal. its a little darker then the factory C5 ZO6 non chrome/polished wheels. and no, its painted. you really dont want to powdercoat aluminum, the process can eat away at the alum cause failure. i know a few people that has seen this happen on the track. powdercoat is more durable, but paint is much safer :)

I noticed that the CME Valence is part of the bumper. How did you do that?
It looks badass!!!!!
-
Complete with a lighter and some visine... :whistle:
:lmao: Very nice car man. Good job :thumbup:

took it to a body shop...they riveted it to the bumper ~ every 6", then used a urethane body filler to create the line and fill everything, then primer with flex additive and paint with uv/flex additive

i had a 96 ttop, and when i was looking forthis i wanted hard top. more rare, and just looks cleaner and is (ever so slightly) stiffer then a ttop car (quite miniscule though..)

oh, and for the grill...i've been to numerous body shops and they all refuse to fill in the holes/camaro. my friend just gave me the number to a guy who will, so if he will then it's all getting filled...if not then i'll get a wings west or rk plain carbon fiber and have a couple thin coats of silver sprayed (ala F40 where you can see the cf through the paint)
:)

Badass looking camaro. Great job!

I never heard of that before. Almost all the bikes I have ridden have powdercoated frames and I have never heard of that being a reason for breakage.

Wow, those windows are black

i dont think it's all alums...just the process our wheels go through. a few diff people on the frrax board have been to races and witnessed the breaking down of a couple different corvette/camaro rims during races bc of the powdercoating

How do you like the handling with the Strano Springs and the Koni's?
-
i really like it a lot. i really think this is how they should have came from factory. i DD the car and make a trip through the canyons almost weekly. The ride is superb, no more floating feeling at high speeds or through turns. in the canyons, the car feels very neutral, i can toss her left/right with ease and am going almost 10-15 mph faster then i was before :hasquint:
the auto-x i was going to go to got rained out, and i need new front tires now or i would have gone to an open track day. hopefully i can do 1 or the other in the next month and i can then give better feedback on those areas.

looks better, thats about it. you can add functionality, theres a few people who are making brake spindles so you can put brake cooling ducts on and run it through either your fog light holes or the 2 holes on either side of the grill openings..
