I have one. Send me an email and I'll send you the psd. I already have a rough (very rough) selection of the top of the front fascia, so that might save you some time.

So go take your "rice" fearing a$$ somewhere else. What I have planned is a bigger intake for the air to actually do something to help cool the car down more. And maybe an actual "funtional" brake air scoops(wow imagine that).

All your are is a poser, trying to be like every other ***** out there. Leave the F-body alone, do us all a favor, and go get yourself a f[_]cking civic. People like you dont deserve to own a true Sports Car...

This topic is beat to death. I'm so sick of hearing how any sort of mod to the car if it isn't mechanical is rice. True sports car? What a joke. The only thing sporty about a stock f-body is the looks. Even the stock 350's aren't fast. I agree that some of those body kits are ridiculous, and clear tail lights are usually out of place, but it's their car, their money, and their time. If you don't have anything nice and helpful to post, don't post at all. 'Nuff said.

I am looking to clean up the front end, and still use fog lights(round ones but still have them. The squares will look way outta place in this grill design. And what's wrong with having actual functioning brake ducts?

I'll tell u this Camarowhateveryournameis, direct name calling (not opinions) as made in your previous post will not be tolerated by the Admin/Owner of this site, and doing that is a good way to get his attention if u know what I'm saying. I should address him about this since I've seen u do it many times before and I've seen u **** off many on these boards with your BS, but I won't. I didn't say anything directly to u, just implying that u might be doing another 1 of your import posts which I and others have had it with.
This isn't a site about imports, its a site about musclecars, if u are going to do something to the picture that has something to do with our kind of cars, cool, but if its going to be another "I saw The NOS and The ridiculous (TFATF), and now I want an import, but if I can't have 1 I'll make my Camaro 1" type of post, just don't, its getting too much already. Some of these cars need something like the SC's and RS's (GTS headlight covers and stuff look good) but the IROC-Z's and most Z28's need nothing. 1st taillights, now bumpers, these imports are becoming more and more stupid anyway, and some of the owners are going to musclecars, and what are u and some others doing, going to imports when u already have the best kind of car for building a fast/street car.

Oh yeah, to the other dude, I think a car that runs around 14.2 can be considered fast, even now in some ways. It doesn't mean anything though because any1 that really wants fast in any car is going to mod it, so it doesn't matter what it runs stock, it already come with 245HP and 345TQ and will run much better with a few mods, and they are Camaros, that means they are sports/musclecars.

I see nothing wrong trying to make the break scoops functional when they are there just for looks in the fist place and making air actually go to the radiator would not be that bad for our cars. There is noting rice about making nonfunctional pieces functional if you do it right and make it good and if you think it looks good great make it. There are so many people out there with so many opinions and there is never a right and a wrong in opinions. If you think something is rice great for you, but i don’t think camaro hunter’s idea is rice but that is just my opinion.

I didn't say it was. Maybe it will look OK or something, I know it won't be for me, but maybe it was going to be an import look and he's just saying that.
I don't ususally make these kinds of posts or like them even, but its too much already. I figured it was gonna be another of his I want to make my car look like an import posts. I ask the few of u to consider what u are driving, because the import guys will just laugh, and the domestic guys will laugh too when they see these want to be an import mods. I have spoken my point of view and am not saying anything more about this.

hey i think camaro hunter just knows what he likes and does what he likes and some of us do like other cars besides just american cars. an import can be fast and you'll know that when you race something besides a honda. a honda is something that can be made fast but mostly just looks fast. go race a supra or an eclipse turbo and get your *** handed to you on a silver platter and a cherry on top. i too am tired of hearing this crap about how anything you do to a car now is "rice". it is not a damn meal, it is a car. so stop calling it rice. true american cars are fast as hell but an import too can be just as fast. just live with it. it is just another car. your job is to try and beat and don't whine about it and call it names when it just raced you and kicked your *** . just my .02 here.

Maybe we can start a club called the "True Sports Car Club". Only members that want their cars to look the same are allowed to join. Before we make any changes to the car, we have to first present changes to the board members...and if approved, we will ALL do it at the same time.
If my car is rice...why dont I shuve my f-body into your face. When you buy the steaks, give me a call! I'll bring the A-1...you ****** bigots!

I like the overall shape of the F body. Thats why I have owned 5. 2 thirds right now, but they need some serious outter upgrades to look they should have from the factory.
If you like the way your car looks right now then great, good for you. That is not the topic of discussion right now. I want to mod the looks of my car. PERIOD. What you and any other "third gen PURIST's" say, think, do, feel does not matter not one ioda to me. I want to change the subtlity of he cars lines. I think it can look alot better. And I think we all know weither we want to admit it or not we know it's true.
And to the people supporting this thanks. I do not plan on "ricing out" my car if there is such a thing(but if I could get the car to run on rice alone I'd do it in a heart beat)LOL. I plan on making it looked better.
And thanks for the pic. I just downloaded it and will work on it tonight and see what happens.

And I'm sorry but I happen to like all the different looks that imports can go with. I think it's bad a$$ that they can make thier car have 30 differnt looks from a stock body. Granted I do not like all the body kits there are, but a lot of them look good.

woohoo, an argument!!! People seem to forget the fact that our cars are getting old. Don't get me wrong, I like the sleekness of my car, but I want to change a few things to really say this car is mine. I don't care if I get laughed at if I like the results. Fourteen seconds isn't fast. Ask any j-body. Or w-body, or g-body for that matter. Could my car be considered rice? Let's see...Formula decals all over the car, big aerowing, useless "bumperettes", blackouts for the tail lights, and a really large TBI where the only thing it does fast is go through gas. I guess I'm a *****!!!

LOL, some of u actually make me laugh, especially the poster of this topic.
"biggot"
I don't think so, no1 can have an opinion but u??
"and if you want to go ahead and "taddle" to the moderator about my language then go ahead."
I said the Admin, and I said I wouldn't, control yourself and the things u say to others from now on, you've did this before and he won't have that BS if its pointed out to him and doesn't want it on his site.
"If you know that the topic will **** you off then stay outta the thread PERIOD."
Dude the only reason I came in here was because all of your posts are about "rice" and u constantly start arguments when others don't agree with u and don't want to hear about "import" mods to a CAMARO, and its poster like u that **** off posters like me who always watch it and don't say anything until it becomes too much. I've only had something like this 1 other time and that was a misunderstanding, and that was realized by both of us. So go to an import site and ask them these questions. If u like them, u like them, but its always the same thing in your posts, I'll bet it was going to be until I said that and u changed your mind to making it whatever u want to do to that picture now.
"third gen PURIST's"
Third Gen, musclecar, whatever, thats what I am, and thats what u want to deface, thats why we are having this conversation.
"And what exactly do RS's supposedly NEED?"
I meant they could use something, they are kinda plain when compared to IROC-Z's and Z28's, thats all.
I said I wasn't going to say anymore, but the stupidity of it all makes me reply.

irocztwentygr8 stay outta this thread. Period. I unfoutunately can't make you but as you have already said you do not like the "mutalation" of 3rd gens so do us all a favor and stay outta threads like this. Our cars have body styles that are 20 or so years old. They need to be updated.

Hmm if you think the looks need to be updated, you ever heard of the notion 'buy a new(er) car?' There you can have the all new factory updated looks. Old cars are cool because they are older and aren't made like that anymore. Third gen's have a bit of the classic muscle look blended with the sleek newer look. And from the factory look wonderful and its easier to ruin the looks with mods if you ask me. But anyway I'm interested in seeing the pictures of what your planning.

Personally I think the F-Bodies for the most part should left alone...
Lights, fog lights, blackouts, hoods, upgrading from sc/berlinetta to Z28/RS nose, ground effects... those I can understand.
Removing the front plate on most noses, I can understand...
Anything else though... I dunno, F-Bodies make a statement the way they are
Swapping from grid taillights to the pre-85 Z28 taillights or vice versa I can also understand, the altezza style taillights I cannot comprehend. They scare me... they look good on the things they came from the factory with... like a lexus.
on anything else, especially f-bodies, they really look outta place (did I mention they scare me?)
What is it you're going to do anyway, post some details so I can get a good idea if you don't get the picture done.

What is it you're going to do anyway, post some details so I can get a good idea if you don't get the picture done.

Calm down guys. Who the hell cares what he does with the pics? Everyone can have their own opinion, but try to keep it to yourself. Blurting it out here on the web just causes crap like this to happen. This is a Tech board, not a place to argue over something that hasnt even happened yet! He hasnt even said what he was going to do, someone just assumed it. Just calm down. Although I dont agree with his statement of about our cars needing an update, I am curious to see what he does with the pics. Just let the man do what he wants. Geeees!

I'll have to agree about the pics,,,
I'm glad some people out there have open
minds and are willing to shake things up
a little,,,,,
Variety is the spice of life guys (I'd address ladies but they don't seem to have that testosterone prob. about cars).
(yes, I know it's a model car box,, the pic is of the real thing though)

ok... another question. I cannot get the photoshop to install without IE4 and up. Well I do not have IE(netscape) and I hate it. But I cannot get the freakin IE to download, or it downloads and it will not install properly. Is there any other way to get this done in photo shop?.
Andway I say a front clip kit for the toyota celica that had a completely smooth face and a trapazoidal front scoop. I thought it looked great, even on the celica and wanted to put it on the 3rd to see what it looked like.
Now this celica face had 1 and only one opening. the trapazoidal thing. I was thinking of putting in a smooth turn signal slits and flush fog lights.(though I am leaning twoards the round style) I think they will look better.

They need nothing, especially what u want to do to it. They look better than cars do now, IMO. Whats this update stuff about?? Dudes don't buy cars from the 60's and 70's or whatever to update the looks, (unless its going to be some kind of crazy show car) they buy them because they like the way they looked then, LOL!!
Oh yeah, and what u just explained sounds like an import/"rice" kind of mod to me, hehheh.

I just don't get why people would do these things to third gens. Import looks will not mesh with third gen looks, all you have to do is look at the cars.
Imports are newer cars that have more curves and round areas as opposed to third gens which are almost box shaped and are composed of mostly straight lines and only the slightest curves. Tell me how you plan to update these cars with looks and features from newer cars?
If you want to update an F-body do a fourth gen, they're newer and closer in shape for what you want to do.
Why do you think almost no one likes the pics of the third gen cars with the Eclipse front bumpers? They just don't match, it's apples and oranges.
By the way, the CheZoom looks like *** . Did you also know that Boyd Coddington went belly up with his company. Wonder why?

well for all those that are interested on what I am thinking of (again the pusrist need to stay outta this thread) this is what I have in mind. I think it would look really good actually. It does not stand out really, it really does clean the front clip up and smooth it out a lot. Anyway heres a link to look at the pic on a celica. I would like to take the clip out to a semi point like the newer camaro's though.
And for those that say I need to buy a newer car to get updates looks...WHY? I stated earlier that the 3rd gen is a good body to work with. Now I should so I could get away from people like you however. I cannot understand why you people are so against any kind of change at all to the 3rd gen. Yeah I like my cars, but I know that if I coulda bought a 95 eclips for 650 bucks like I bought my 91 t top for I would have in a heart beat. hell then I would not have had to worry about people biatching about me modding it.

Maybe that wasn't the best example. I suppose most of you think Chip Foose is a riceboy too. Camarohunterd, post some pics if you get your photochopping done. I would like to see what you have in mind. Car shows would be so boring if all the cars were exactly the same every time.

All I gotta say is anyone who thinks the import guys are the first to put big spoilers on their cars ,paint them bright colors, and strip them down to go fast without any engine mods has never seen a '60's '70's Chrysler product.

Heres my take on it:
Making your car to look fast when its slow: rice
Making your car look fast when its fast: good thing
Completely changing the look of your car because you want to: not a bad thing
imports: dont talk about em, this is a musclecar forum
musclecars: camaros
musclecars with import looks: different looking musclecars
trying to force your beliefs about the whole issie on other people you dont even know: ignorant

Second. I am not tring to force mt ideas on anyone.
third. I am not tring to make my car look fast. It's a 3.1(please I know it's slow compared to TPI
4th. I am not tring to make my car look like an import. I happen to like the way this particular air intake looks.(and if you even bother to go take a look at the link I provided you may like it too.)
And I'm sorry the "camaro" does not own the rights to be declared the sole muscle car of the world. there are many many muscle cars and the camaro ranks near the bottom actually.
And I'm sorry about rebuting the "muscle car" forum here... Please get a freggin life people. there are other cars than the 3rd gen. I do realize this is a thrd gen forum site and what ever but this IS 3rd gen related. This is just a newer look that I think will look good on the car.
There are no needs to post anything else on this thread till you actually go and see the freggin font clip part I want to retrofit onto MY CAR.
If you people are so concerned about what someone else wants to do to THERE CARS then you seriously need something better to do with your time. When are you goiing to realize that there are people out there that ant to modify there cars? And not just look like another clone 3rd gen. Have you ever noticed that every freggin 3rd looks the same? We all have the same parts on our cars, the 3 inch cowl hoods(I think is atrocious) the B/B stinger hoods, looks better then ther Iroc hoods. Maybe a turbo hood every once in a while but thats it. The only other thing that may be different is the rims. otherwise all the damn 3rd gens in the world look the same!.
I want to have smething different. I want my 3RD GEN CAMARO TO STAND OUT OF THE CROWD. I HATE BEING ANOTHER FREGGIN CLONE. AND I DO NOT CARE IF NONE OF YOU THINK ITS A TRAGIC METHOD OF DISTRUCTION AND THAT I DO NOT DESERVE TO WON THE CAR BECAUSE OF IT. GET A LIFE PEOPLE. IT'S NOT YOUR CAR. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO OWN IT, DRIVE IT, REPAIR AND CARE FOR IT.
IF ANY HAVE SEEN THE EVOLUTIONIZE KIT I AM LOOKING TO ADAPT A FRONT AIR INTAKE VERY SIMILAR TO THAT.
SO BEFORE ANY IT'S RICE, YOU DO NOT DESERVE THE CAR, THATS JUST WRONG, IT'LL LOOK LIKE A$$.. LOOK AT THE FREGGIN THING THAT I AM LOOKING TO DO. AND EVEN IF YOU DO NOT APROVE I COULD CARE LESS. IT MY FREGGIN CAR!!! I WILL DO WHAT I SEE FIT TO IT.

Not to mention those cars are cake to work on. I used to work on them. engine rebuild takes 1 day and 600 bucks, to replace the crank, pistons, rods, all bearings and the cylinder sleeves. You want a true sprits car go to europe, hell the mini's(mini cooper) they have will blow us away, and far out handle us. You need to get a real definition on "sports car" then try again. The 'vette is a sports car of sorts. thats one of 2 american factory production cars that at least come close, the other being the Viper. But the euro's do not need 8 clyinders, hell don't even need 6. But there 6's will blow us away at will.... And I know I am gonna get its comparing apples to oranges(european-american) but you can get several cars over there for the price of a decent third gen that will eat us alive. So price wise it's the same. I have a couple freinds that took a mini they bought for 200 pounds roughly 350-400 bucks maybe and put in a performance kit that they found for another 750 pounds and they have a car that runs 10.769@137.75 MPH... and this from a car that has 14 inch tires.... for around 1800 or so american...

actually my post was directed @ IROCZTWENTYGR8, not you camaro_hunter_d. I was trying to show him he needs to have more of an open mind about modifying cars and what other ppl do to modify cars. what I was getting at was even though that kit makes the car look like an import, its still a musclecar so yeah, we should be able to discuss it here without people dissing us as bad as they do. sorry if i made you pop an artery!!!

Also, I wasn't forcing any ideas on any1, I can have an opinion, I already knew it was going to be some kind of import look to his Camaro, thats what ALL of his posts are about. U know what, I don't like being forced to look at these topics everytime I come to the Appearance and Detailing board, about how to make your musclecar look like an import, and lots of others don't like it either. As said in this topic and in others, if u want an import, go buy 1, sell your car to a guy that will keep a Third Gen a Third Gen. If u want to mod your cars, cool, why not get a cowl hood or take cars like the MYZ as an example instead of putting an import bumper on a Camaro?? Come on already.
Oh yeah, to the dudes that don't know what they are driving, LOL, a Camaro is a musclecar.
Its 1 of the best and most reconizable musclecars ever made. Just because the economy wasn't at its best in the 80's and engines didn't have as much HP and TQ as before then and now, doesn't change that.

I agree, this will probably get locked. It has turned into a big worthless argument. Actually, I cruised back up to the top and don't recall camaro hunter asking for any opinions, just a picture. Most of the replys are very hostile and I would get angry too. Where is everyone's creative side. The cars that win awards at shows are the ones with lots of time, care, work, and money involved not the ones that have been bought and just driven into the ground. Alot of the purists cars are nice too. Not because they all look alike, but because you have taken care of them. I'm done for now, this rice crap has me burt out.
I am still wondering how changing the shape of the air ntake makes the car "rice"??? And heaven forbid I make the brake cooling ducts functional!, and want to increase the overal size of the air intake so it can actually impact the cooling effect of the engine. Gee I thought these were good things??? Maybe I was wrong.
And I am still wondering if the "it's rice" of this thread have even looked at the intake I am looking at???? Hmm...

I think we fall under a different catagory because we do alot of photo editing. What I mean is that we always want to try to make things look different or more to our liking. I've used Photoshop on my car tons of times just to see what it would look like. Doesn't mean that I'm going to do it though. Just like some of these pics I've done to see how the wheels, Ram-air hood, and spoiler from a 4th gen would look on my 87 Trans Am. It's people like us who was brave enough to design the 3rd Gen in the first place (take the risk to try something new and see how it looks) although many thought it was prob. stupid. You're good with Photoshop and just don't settle for less. I do think all the cursing was alittle much but I must agree with you "If you don't like the topic then get out of it"!
