Nice!! I liked your car before, but it'll look great with those gfx and nose. I've seen a couple camaros in the yards around here. If someone doesnt sell you a nicer one, I'll look for those parts cause im going tomarrow.

I have an extra set of lights, rs grill, and nose badge, but their not in very good shape at all. If you cant find some really really nice ones, I will find it all, and zap a pic for you.

Lights are fogged up.

Badge I belive just has some overspray where someone didnt tape it up properly on previous paint job.

I'm about to get off work, so I'll rumage thru my storage unit to look for them.

I like your camaro with out the ground f/x, it stood out more that way. Don't get me wrong, those will really make your camaro look sweet!

Good find.

Cool! So what color are they going to be? Body color or something different?
Looks good, but you need the eibach pro-kit bad!

Lol, I dunno why, but that pic of the front clip looks funny with the headlights in it. It looks like someone just hacksawed the front end off a car :P

Lookin good. I cant wait to see the finished product.
How are you going to drill the holes into the body? Are you going to go to a j/y and make templates off of a 91-92?

Who are you having paint it? Do you have any paint left over from when you painted the car? That white is going to be hard to match, especially with pearl in it. White is one of the hardest colors to match anyways.

Yes, its going to look really cool with the GFX. You know the 91-92 sides look kind of cool without the door GFX on them.


There are sof few SCs that I like and yours was one of them - I will miss seeing it.

Actually I was thinking the same thing, but not with that interior. Maybe if he had a different interior color. It'd look too Christmasy
