NEW PICS OF MY 1992 Z28!

I got 2 new pics up on my sites. Click on the links in my sig. The pics are big.... That is my new wing that everyone called rice, I think it looks great with the 3rd break light. Chrome yellow paint, ASA JS5 wheels (by BBS) and new tail lights (removed black out spray), grill and more!

What ya think? By far not rice as many said it would be..

not bashing u, just my opinion, yellow looks cool, wing is ugly... not because its rice or anything, it just doesnt flow with the curves of the car... other than that it looks good.

i agree, everything looks good, and the spoiler isnt that bad. it just doesnt fit the lines. it kinda looks like a high rise z 28 wing that someone chopped up

looks good gofaster. I personally would've stuck with the z28 spoiler and kept the door handles and grill black, but it kind of gives it the illusion of bein shaved

looks good, I bet you're proud of it

Definately not rice, looks pretty good, but I do like the wing on the 91-92 Z's so I wouldn't have spent the money on a wing.

I agree with most everyone else it seems. The spoiler isn't bad, but doesn't seem to fit the lines right. I'd pick a 91-92 over it, but it doesn't look as bad as you made it out to be. I was expecting a 7 foot with double spoiler type. Only other this is kept the grill black. Just doesn't go right to me, but not my car of course. Paint looks nice, weird thing is... the picture that took it made the picture sort of fuzzy... but if you look where the light shine, it gleams like hell. Looks like a photoshop job (notice didn't say it was...said looks like)

Like the color, but I think the hood looks too big. As for the wing, I actually like it from the back, but in the pic from the side I don't think it looks good. I wouldn't put it on my car. But your car is surely VERY unique! I like it overall.

Thanks for the coments. I like the wing, I just wanted to be differant from the stock looking 91-92's. I love my baby, turns many heads..... I just love that style....

Yes, I want bigger wheels, when money allows. Drop it about 2" and I would be done with the apperance mods.

I really like it. I was actually thinking of getting the same spoiler for my TA. I just didnt know if it would look a little out of place...but I figured it would be cool since nobody else had it. But then you had to come a long and get it...lol...j/k. Well I love yellow camaro's...and I am actually thinking of buying my cousins yellow '88 L98 IROC-Z and repainting it yellow. Good job...and I think it came out really well. I just suggest one of those black grills for the front with a yellow bow tie.

well i know it isn't nice to say bad things so i'll try not to upset you, but why did you remove the nice stock spoiler for that one?

i know you have your reasons; it just amazes me thats all.

with that out of the way, i like the color; but i agree with everyone else in that the grill and handles would look better black.

but, after all it's your car to do with as you please. i just prefer the 91-92 z28 style.

The car looks great. I think the wing looks good. It's different, but it isn't two feet tall and doesn't stick out farther than the bumper cover. I'm not big on the cowl hoods, but some people actually need them to clear blowers, tunnel rams, whatever. But the car looks good and has a road racing look to it.

The hood is unlimited products, 4 3/4" bolt on. The hood fit nice, no shaping at all, she just bolted right up.

If I had to go with a new hood, I would go with the SS hood or the smaller cowl hood. That 5" cowl is hard to see over, LOL!
