Took those today. Unfortunately I left my camera at home, so all I had was my cell... Sorry for the poor quality.

It's a shame that they are illegal in PA, otherwise they wouldve been on my cars years ago... To answer your question, ebay has everything...

I think you can buy them even at AutoZone. At least that is what one of my co-workers said.

Re: Post You'r Non-Ground Effects 3rd Gens

<-- click my virtual garage to see pics of my '87 SC

Question - I rarely see sport coupes with two-tone paint anymore. Being a child of the '80's, I thought all sport coupes came from the factory with two-tone paint. I even remember the black ones had a deep gray color at the bottom. Am I wrong, or do people just favor monotone when repainting?

In a thread like this you're definitely going to see a lot of Firebirds.

Re: Post You'r Non-Ground Effects 3rd Gens

Haha, I like them without gfx. They look more tough and well, You don't have to worry about the front spoiler scraping everywhere. I would trade my RS for a beat up bert anyday.

That is your opinion, and no one asked for it. So stop trashing someone elses thread

I am not even saying I like either one over the other. Mine has ground effects. It annoys me when people just come into a thread and start trashing everyone's ride posting in it when no one asked for their opinion on how it looks. It's immature and the reason I don't post here too much

I want a Daytona hood btw. I have a straight cowl but like the combo of cowl and iroc hood

Let em have their choice, me personally I love the look of the older non gfx Camaros, I mean how can you not love the stance of em like Jbenge's 84?





That to me is pure sex, I am 19 years old and I just love em!

Thanks, I love the hood too, Got it for almost nothing locally, it had its minor issues but they are fixed now.

Nice. I've been looking out on CL but no such luck yet. Maybe I'll be crazy and buy a new one this summer.

I'm sure there is a security reason why they are illegal.

When the sun is in front of youre car and you hit the brakes i'm sure the driver in the car behind you can't see youre stop lights flashing.

But the blackouts looks soooooooo cool
