Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

I want to get subframe connectors but I hate that they might stick down below the gfx on my IROC. I like the stock look and don't want to ruin it with an extra hunk of metal. I've really only seen good side shots of cars without gfx and the sfc's stand out like a sore thumb. So I would like people to post pictures of sfc's on a camaro that has ground effects. Please be sure to post what brand of sfc is on the pictured car if at all possible.

Thanks,
Mike

P.S. I would prefer the side shot to be 10ft or more away

Re: Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

You wont see 'em under hte car, they dont stick any lower than the siderails of the floorpans. I'll add some pics in a second.

These are Spohns


You can see exhaust, but no sfcs!


Pay attention the angle of this pic, it's about a foot below the car, at about 2 feet away... not a realistic angle for any passerby. Those pinchwelds to hte floorpan can be a good frame of reference for you if you look at your own car.


Easier to see the relative height of the sfcs and gfx here.

UMI on my 89 RS. From at ground level, the camera was about a foot off the ground. SFC barely visible below the GFX, the passenger side shown disappears as it follows the floorboard halfway to the front, the driver's side is barely visible the entire length between the wheels.

Re: Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

Man, an X-Pipe with 2 glass packs? What do you have under the hood? How loud is it?

Sorry for off-topic, just curious.

Had a few other things to take care of. Priorities, and everything. But the new motor (And those parts I got from ya!) are going in next month some time.

I had to make sure the new shocks/struts/springs, sfc's, and exhaust got on the car before the new motor did. Everything's ready so it wont be long now!

Re: Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

The only part viable on my Hotchkis is the torque arm mount for my BMR adjustable trac pack kit.

Here are a couple lower shots....as u can see no really visable.

Re: Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

Consider me subscribed to this thread....

mw66nova, how do you like those jegsters? Have you pinch welded them to the floor? they look pretty beefy, and hug the car well. I really like it.

UMI sits quite a bit lower than i thought (i have a "non gfx" firebird) and the spohns still look great, but kinda skinny compared to the other stuff.

Re: Post pics of Camaro's with SFC's

I have UMI SFCs. You can see them if the camera is low enough and the angle is right, but I don't think your eyes are drawn to looking at it.

You can see one in this picture:



But not in these:
