Ground effects help

I recently put my 88 camaro into a ditch... ruining the front chin and removing some paint from the bumper.
Im about to buy a new chin but I want somthing a little different.
I want some new ground effects with maybe a different design and are lower.
Ive been searching around with little luck.
I just want to give my car a new look/style.
If you have ANY suggestions id appreciate it.[IMG]file:///Users/bplindow/Desktop/Noah-Photos/DSC03682.JPG[/IMG]

Re: Ground effects help

Personally theres 2 3rd gen camaro styles I always loved, the early year z28s, 82-85 or 86, and the late model non base ones either 90 or 91 and 92.

As far as lower gfx, they are all the same height just slightly diff styles over the years and models, if you search you can find a thread about identifying F-bodies, it has some comparison pictures side by side might help give you an idea of what you want.

As far as aftermarket, there is VERY little out there, but it is out there if you search the interwebs, personally your best bet is to find out what style thirdgen stuff you like best, put that on, then lower the car, just make sure you lower it the right way if you care about handling.

Classic industries has all of the re-produced. Personally I like the graphics that go on your car. If your car is 82-84, get 82-84 graphics. If your car is 85-90, get 85-90 graphics. If your car is a 91-92, get 91-92 graphics. That's how it should be.

Re: Ground effects help

I'm gonna chime in here and that in most cases the best looking ground effects come from detroit, I personally have not seen an aftermarket ground effects kit that I like although I have not seen any for any car that I liked they all just look too risey. If you want a different style I would go for a different year but don't look aftermarket again that's just me. Sorry to chime in here on the graphics part but personally I think the best looking 3rd gen has no graphics these cars have are beautiful and you don't need graphics taking away from that (other than pace cars which I think look great too but again that came from detroit too). I know you're looking for something different but I haven't seen any better alternative.
