and the pic...almost identical minus the wheels. I think yours actually look more fitting. Your paint looks nicer too.

where did you get them from? and how much did they set you back? did you use the bulbs that came with the kit? lol sorry for all the q's i want to get some though. i like your car man looking clean. i really like white letter tires lol no body does anymore but they look cool on some cars. but they look very bad on some cars too. i think you should get a bigger tire for the back and take the spoiler off then get a lowering kit. my opinion though. nice car.

ive been toying around with the idea of lowering it just enough to close up the gap but im not sure how it would look with 15" wheels. if any body has some pics or thoughts on that idea please share. the headlights were 30 or 40 a piece, i looked on ebay for camaro h4 headlight and looked at a few bids and on one of the bids the company added their website and i just ordered mine from there. i havent had much look with just a yahoo search for a dealer's website. i kept the boxes and receipts for about 2 months before i tossed them so no luck there. you'll have to do a little rewiring but id be more than happy to show/explain it with pictures if needed
