interesting modifications, discuss
*lets try not to turn this into a flame-fest*

the grill is very interesting, I can see how it would appeal (though not to me personally) I'll give him points for originality.
the side exhaust actually looks pretty decent, although it looks like 1" pipe and could use something better then a flange for an end.
I do like the seats though, have then been recovered?? I'd love to get a set like that, for both my cars!

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
i've seen it before. You would really have to see that car to see if the grille is done well or just hacked in there and held on with zip-ties
the side exhaust is fake, in another pic the car has tail pipes. Not a well executed plan, but to each his/her own.

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
that grill needs to be scrapped.
also, that grill could not be installed correctly on a camaro. not unless you install it to a chain and drag it behind one.

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
if done properly i could see how people would like it, i wouldn't not want to drive it though,
and having that grill on an angle while the front is squared off, does not make it look good at all.
but it is "A REAL HEAD TURNER." and it has "side and rear exaust" ooooh weeee

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
just wanted to point out, THAT GUY likes aftermarket chrome Iroc's and black out tail lights. further cementing my belief that these are two of the poorest taste third gen mods of all time

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
Wheels are sweet.
Stupid hood.
Side pipes are neat, but not with gfx or rear exhaust.
Wood interior looks retarded.
Grille doesn't match the lines of the car at all.
Whatever floats his boat.....

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
If that grill was done properly.. and thats a big if, its nothing I would ever do to my car, but I guarantee this one will live on in infamy in m'gallery. i thought the big chrome camaro rims would do it for me, but they really dont sadly.

I try to always say 'to each his own', that is until you want someone to buy your creation and it looks like ***.
Wood grain trim, side pipes, and a crazy 'phantom' grille do not belong on a 3rd gen Camaro, period.

If he did do it the right way it would have cost a lot! And if you have that kind of money you could at least do something to the engine! The rims are nice though. The grill come on man I give it 10 points for origiality and a negative 50 for stupidity!

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
DAmn that's fugly.
As for side exhaust, looks like they grabbed a hand rail from somewhere, a real side exhaust is at elast 3" in diameter and that's still small IMO. $ and above, then we're talking.
I do like the seats a lot, if only someone was selling covers for the custom seat option so I can buy some for mine.

I mean really, it's a nice looking wheel.
As for the car, not my cup of tea, but hey if that's what he wants to do I have no problem with it....

Re: interesting modifications, discuss
it would have been a great looking wheel if it were as cast, or even better painted/coated black with a machined face.
