Nice car, but I'd prefer the stock hood.

I had the car painted at "Corsello's" in Turnersville,but one of our tech guys at my job did the paint job! He did an awesome job! If you need a good place to go I'm sure I could give you a list of places that do nice work, but it won't be cheap$$$ Let me know....

Beautiful car! Looks brand new! I like the touch of getting the new grille and turn signals. Im sure it makes it look even better in person. Im not 100% liking the hood on the car but the overall Z is awsome. :hail:

Sweet paint, the body is flawless..

I'm looking for a shop too actually, if you know any good ones please let me know, I've gone to about 5 shops already, and everyone wants at least $5000 or more to paint my car, I'm not really looking to spend a dime over $3500, and I'm just not going to Maaco period.. Any info please let me know

Nice paint job ! I also think that the headlight pockets look much better painted the body color.

Very nice. I don't like that hood on Camaros, but with the Z28 wing it looks a lot better.
