Everyone post pics of custom/homemade mods youve done.

 

Hopefully this is what you mean; Full Eurolite H4 Conversion headlamps, clear side markers, ALL Z28 emblems shaved for '03 SS Silverado emblems, APC Grille behind modified center piece, some other stuff. No drastic body mods except smoothing the emblems.

 

Pretty minor stuff... Body color bumpers and doorhandles, removed FORMULA350 billboard from door, blackouts, tint, 17s, blacked out parklamps

tpiroc,

dude that is one sexy car..i do have to admit..the placement of those stripes is both unique and perfectly done

good job man

iroc2nv

 

what is exaclty entailed in doing that headlight conversion? are they just different headlamps that fit into the stock location? and i also like the stripes. thats a badass lookin car.

 

Just a little scanner action:

Enjoy

Later

 

For some reason, I feel I've seen this topic before somewhere..... https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=171819

 

All I've really got for body mods that are custom is my paint (GM bright red, white pearl ghost flames with gold pearl tips) and no antenna. My 91-92 Z28 grill has been painted body color with a silver bowtie.





No more antenna -




And this pic shows how ghost the flames can be-

 

what exaclty is custom?
non-stock? puting GTAs on a camaro and a GTA wing, is that custom? painting it a custom blue? putting 4thgen seats in and grant streeing wheel?
putting a 2,500watt custom system in a camaro?...
Or just turning heads, and haveing cops follow you?

 

fender louvers from an 81 Z28

 

custom hood and of course the 98 interior

 

TunedPort 335 those flames look awsome. im not a huge fan of flames but dam the just looks awsome.:hail:

 

Here is a picture of my car......did some custom mods to it.......

 

Back in 1991 at the Street Machine Nationals in Duqoin I added a couple of hood mods, but I couldnt figure out how to get permanently attached to them, uhhhhm I mean get them permanently attached(and yes that is Daisy Fuentes)

 

Well at least those model's...I mean mods are naturally asperated!! unlike that big ole huffer behind 'em.

 

Thanks man, it means alot when I hear comments like this...especially when I remember what the car used to be.


IHI - post up some of those interior pics! I can't get enough of your car. I think its one of the nicest firebirds on this board.

 

I wish that frickin magazine would hurry up and contact me so I could post a link, sure would make it easier on me I went to cardomain or whatever it's called and tried setting something up but I had to type in stuff so I gave up. Might talk my computer literate nephew into doing it for me since I'm clueless other than what I'm doing here Without beating a dead horse I'm sure if you did a search guys can find my pics somewhere. It's really embarrasing since most of the pics where taken when I first got it outta the garage-the pics where the car actually looks red instead of burnt orange like some of the other pics. I'll throw this one up right when I brought it home, now there's a stereo and other stuff so it looks much better, Just never got around to taking better pictures myself. Once I get the slides back from the shoot up in Detroit I'm hopeing to have some killer pics...whenever that happens, again told maybe next month

 

bout the only gauge layout pic I got when I first started working on this. Wanted carbon fiber for the background in the dash insert, but that' ll have to wait until next winter when I rip it all back out to finish the full cage.

 

Hey Iroc2nv, do you have any pictures of those Mustangs euros on your Camaro? I was thinking of a similiar mod using those taillights and was wondering what it looked like? What all did you have to do to get them on?

 

Hybrid TAIL

 

How about custom dual exhaust...does that count as a homeade mod...

 

i have a chrysler 8 3/4 inch rear end in my car , my grandfather and i did it over this summer, it is completely bolt in. IT could be put in anyones car if i took it out and swapped. It still uses the stock rims and is the stock width.

 

Now that's a cool mod and what makes it the best was working with your grandfather. Definately a mod that will superceed the car in the future.

 

HEY CarNDrvr!!! I haven't seen you post in years. You didn't buy the car back did ya?

 

and IHI - do you have any pics with the door closed of how well the dash mates up to the doorpanels and A-pillar? I'd really like to see one.

 

yeah, but the only pic is photoshopped by devianb..
but i did however go to my bodyshop (that did the rear bumper and front bumper conversion) and he said that all that they needed to do is cut about an inch of the rear quarter panels to fit the mustang tails (cuz they go rectangle and ours go triangular at the tip of the tail) and then just fibreglass it all over the place.. and succeed it in more so it has that indented look, plus im changing the location of the licence plate as well i think...we ll see how it looks

anyways here is the pic (bottom pic) top was chrome

 

I tried to buy it back, but he doesn't want to sell it. I never should have sold it...what was I thinking!!!

 

LOL...that's what we all told you at the time too

I still think your old car is the most gorgeous Camaro on these boards. Glad you're still around on TGO

 

What kind of rims are those?

 

Here's mine. Dont have my bodymods done yet so still looks plain, but here are some pics. Paint is 2002 Sunset Orange Metallic, and same wheels as CarNDrvr's old ride, Boyd Coddington Tuned (but in 18's). Motor is a blown L98.

 

intake tube for a civic at autozone - 40 bucks

K&N filter - 35 bucks

duct taping it and having to pullover cause the MAF kept getting disconnected... priceless:lala:

(this was before the teardown)

 

They are Boyd Coddington "Tuned" 17x9 up front and 17x11 in back.

Hey CrazyHawaiian...those 18's look damn good on your car. Glad to see that someone is carrying on the "Tuned" legacy...LOL.

 

I think that will look great Iroc2nv. I think the carbon fiber ones look better on your car. Too bad no companies make any euros that are bolt-on to our cars.

 

I had 'custom' euro's. It's on page 4 of my site.

im hopin so..its gonna cost a pretty penny to get it done..(right)

yeah..ive exausted myself talking to companies to get them to produce a bolt in version..but they all say the same thing..

"there isnt enough interest"

so..i did a custom job

iroc2nv

 

too bad you sold that man, that is a sweet ride? what brand/size cowl hood is that? looks perfect.

Mike

 

It is a Harwood 3" cowl. It took some body work to make it look that good. I sure wish the fiberglass hood companies would put more effort into making their hoods "ready to bolt on".

 

Harwood makes a 3" cowl? Hmmm...I missed that somehow. Do they make it in the Outlaw style?

 

Tell the guy he has to sell it back to you or you'll go insane. Wait, you already are for letting that car go in the first place! Good to see you're still around

 

I got that hood about 5 years ago. It was the bolt on cowl hood...not the outlaw style. I think all the outlaws are 4" right?

 

I find it hard to believe there would be no market for them when they make euros for fox body Mustangs. I see third gen Camaros all time.

 

cause third gens arent civics...

carndriver, you car looks awesome, and thoes rims look better then the 18's on CH's car. 17's just fit this car nice IMO and anything bigger gets too big. But CH's car does look sweeeeet.

 

Tied with the old MYZ for best Camaro

I've tried and tried to figure out how the hell that exhaust got done, even showed it to a few exhaust shops around the state.
Noone could seem to figure out how to do it and keep any kind of ground clearance.


Question: both pipes just come out that one side, or is it mirrored on the other?

-JT

 

This is my custom box for more on it go

http://www.cardomain.com/id/crazy3rdgen

It holds 2 15" kicker vr comps:lala:

 

see heater/ac and stereo controls, there deleted with custom black delet piece.



I will find more pics of some other stuff..

 

and..... Custom mesh grill inserts, pic does no justice, but it looks great (without the flash messing the pic up)




this one is a little better

 

and my custom flame job (with blue SS) on my air cleaner cover!

 

Well I don't have pics yet, but I made my hood blisters functional and I painted my tails all red (except for the reverse) I'll post pics when I finsih painting the hood
