Love the paint. Looks like it needs a spoiler, though.

The car does look like it needs a spoiler, but only because it has the ghetto tail lights... If u put the checkered IROC tail lights on it, it will look good without a spoiler because its silver... Also, my personal opinion, i hate those Z28 mags... Get yerself some IROC single inserts or a nice set o dubs and that car will be blingin!
Good condition for an 82.. Havent seen any like it... Peace..

Looks good. I like it without the spoiler. I think it would look better with the IROC style grid lights (either plain or blacked out) or a set of blackouts. I also think you need some better 16"+ wheels to make your car stand out, and make it handle better. I think chrome usually looks best on silver.

I like it without a spoiler there is something about it... I would call it smooth. It looks really smooth the way the window goes into the trunk.

Rims, I would say polish the ones you already have... the 5 spoke is a always a nice rim to begin with...

A set of silver ROH 5 spokes in 17" would look killer, as would a set of chromed or polished Torque Thrust II's. Aftermarket chrome 17" or 18" IROC wheels would look real good too.

When I was down in LA last year for the West Coast Gathering 2000, there was a silver thirdgen Camaro at a drive-in that I absolutely loved. It had a very large metallic flake, almost reminded me of custom paint from the late '60s. It was very smooth, and looked oh so good. It just glistened in the street lights. Everything about it was understated, just wish I'd gotten a picture of it.

I like it without the spoiler, anyone ever heard of the California IROC. I think the SS hood would look good on it. And blackouts would look good too.
