They certainly are different. Never seen those ones before, and they don't look bad. I also like what you did with the turn signal lenses, I assume that you removed the factory lens and replaced it with some clear lexan or something? As for your blackouts, they are fine. Some people just have to find something to complain about instead of being constructive.

Ok guys, where can I get fog lights like that? I've never seen bowtie fog lights before.. The blackouts are cool too.. Though in by area they are illegal.. I can't really comment on the grill, it's too dark to see, but I like the looks anyways..

You can get the lights from http://www.lighthouse-pro.com/ I'm planning on using their bowtie reverse lights on my tail light setup. You can't order right from the site, but if you email them they'll get you in touch with a local distributor. The sell for around $80/pair and look a lot better in person than those pictures indicate. They have a nice pic of a maroon Iroc with them installed on their site. If I add ground effects I'm puttin them up front, otherwise I'm goin for the reverse lights.

Those fog lights look pretty sick. I hate to sound like an *** , but are they a little off from each other. Maybe it is just me, though.

EDIT: Its driving me nuts, but maybe it is just the way the first picture is. I can't tell in the second one.

Well,you wanted to know what everyone thought about your grill/lights,etc...So you should be expecting some good and not so good comments.My comment though..looks too Auto Zony to me..looks like you spent a little too long in your local Auto Zone store.Just my opinion about it,but what was said earlier thats your taste,make your car as unique as you would like,just please don't give me any ideas!..hehehe..:8^)..just kiddin!

Well Incredible Bulk I am pretty sick of hearing all the comments about rice on this website!! There is nothing on my car that has to do with rice. All the little things I do to my car are things to personalize it so it doesn't look like every other thirdgen camaro going down the road like I am sure yours does!! Post a picture of your car on hear so every one car see your everyday plain jane camaro. I posted the pictures to get some feed back not to get some ignorante a** h*** ripping up my car!! I like it that way so you can kiss my *** if you don't like it. As for speed just give me time my friend you will be spending days trying to scrape my rubber off your windshield!! I am not made of money so like alot of people I have to save for things that I want. Nice chatt'in at ya!!

What I see is a very nice, clean Camaro. Not my "cup of tea" but that is my view to the owner's view. I like the foglights, they are totally original and who cares where you got them. However, I didn't like the grill. I have a question for you, how/where did you get the front turn signal lights so clear? Mine have turned an off white/yellow nasty looking color and I need new ones.


<h1>To the ignorant individuals:</h1>
What is everyone's problem with a visually modified camaro or firebird? "Oh man that **** is rice, this is rice, that is rice." **** rice. These cars are not rice, never have, never will be. No one appears to have a clue what the riceboy mentality is. It's mental(driver) as well as physical(machine). I've been on this site for almost a year and the petty bickering and rice **** as of recent is driving me away. Its anoying to see constant ignorant statements from the same few individuals (and some of the newbees).

But what was visual modification before it was rice? It was street rodding, hot rodding, whatever you wanted to call it and it wasn't some ****ed up taboo like rice is today. Chuck, I apologize for this total outburst, but I'm just sick to death and I'm about ready to leave and never come to this forum again. That, and I know this post was going nowhere fast. Feel free to modify this or delete this if you see fit.

Most folks on this board think anything NOT stock is rice. Just never mind them, and do what you like. I think it's orignal, so keep it up!

The grill looks good, but I don't like the bow-tie lights. They could be manufactured by PIAA, Hella, or Bosch, and they'd still look cheap to me. Now please don't take offense to my opinion, none was intended. You asked what we thought,and I told you.

Ok Incredible Bulk this is stupid to fight and argue over this!! We are both bowtie junkies. No matter if you like my car or not, lets not be enemies!! Save the hatred for the blue oval men if ya know what I mean!! I am not a big fan of the so called "RICERS" either and to make my car look like any type of Honda or Toyota or anything like that is the last thing I want to do. I am just trying to be different!! So to everyone on here that arguing back and forth w/ me lets forget it we are all supposed to be Bowtie buddys that is what the site is for right? For anyone I had said mean or negative things too I am sorry!! Thanks for everyones comments negative or positive!!

WOW!..85maroz28..takes one cool dude to apologize..so i guess i'm cool too..I too apologize for what i had said..Camaro and Firebirds are why we are here..why should we argue with one another over these wonderful vehicles.It would be a dull world if everyones car looked the same.Do whatever you want to your ride guy.Once again i apologize.Lets try and help one another out and stop beating eachother up.We are here on this board for one reason and one reason only..and that is..because 3rd gen Camaros and Firebirds are truly the best vehicles made!!!..holler if ya hear me!!!

eh guy...new poster here

im not a big advocate of the GTS (or whatever brand) light covers as they cover the incredible shine on a new set of lenses...and as detail goes a detailed set of lens retainers (the metal thingies with 4 screws placed over each lens). If you plan to keep em, may i suggest using a subtle rubbing compound and removing the white brand insignia on the corners of the light covers.

As for the fog lights, nice smooth touch.
Not seen everywhere, im sure a nice topic of discussion with passerby's. I must admit they wouldnt work with everycar as it may make the front end look too busy. The clear tuurn signal covers (stock as i understand it)look great too. i own a 91 RS and the front lamps are dingy yellow....the sidemarkers are yellow....so maybe i will have to look into scrounging up a set of clears for mine.
Originality goes much further than people think, but so does ingenuity. As tempting as it may be, steer clear of buying all the bolt-ons you can. I recommend removing the doorpanel stripes/moldings to clean up the car a bit...i did and it looks awesome (check out Project Silver Streak with SuperChevy or CHP).

P.S. Pay no mind to those punks that trash the cars..this goes to all readers too.
Kids like those think of cars just as an extension of themselves and a tool to gain social status rather than an outlet in which to pour creativity, passion and pride into.
Be proud, you have a nice car!

I love those fog lights, but I do agree that they may look the front end a little "busy" However, I do like those. I would remove that white lettering on your headlight covers. I'm not a big fan of the daytona twin turbo hood, but it doesn't look half bad here.

Do what you like, and don't get discouraged by what someone may say that is negative about your car.

It's one thing to say you don't like the car, but another to be as ignorantly rude as you were. MOST of the "rice" stuff I see done to Camaro's is on the later stuff, especially the 98+. Also I guess most of the fixed up older big block Chevy's with bowtie exhaust tips are rice too...
And as far as your list of cars...you're either a liar or a dope - I'll let you choose. Anyone with a SUPERCHARGED LS1 that runs only low 13's can't drive. The fact that it only turns 104 MPH proves your lying about the supercharger or the car all together. I've seen faster stock LS1's.
If your car only runs 104 MPH, I'll run ya just to say that I whooped a blown LS1.
