I like it. The noses of thridgens look stupid. Especially camaros. I hate the way the nose tapes in as it goes down and then the GFX taper the other way. I also don't like the way the GFX on the nose angle up from the wheel wells to the very front.

Normally, I don't respond to posts like this because I understand what one person likes the next may not. But that is the ugliest mod I have seen done on any car. IMO the '91-'92 stock front end is still the best.

why buy a camaro in the first place if you want to completely transform its appearance?
That front end is a botched abortion if I've ever seen one. I hate it on rice, and I hate it 10x more on a domestic.

Dude, if you like it I guess that's all that counts. I'll leave my personal opinion on what it looks like out of it.
As far as black or white, I say black would be better. I just haven't seen many white cars that I care for very much. Black looks better to me.

So, what kind of weird fire was it that melted the front bumper only and didn't destroy the rest of the car? Go take a visit to HondaCivic.com

Thats got to be one of the most taky looking front ends I hae ever seen, import/domestic, that takes the cake. I just cant fathom why anyone in their right mind would even think about doing such a thing to a Camaro? Do whatever you want though, I dont have to like it.

My car has a 100% stock appearance except for a cowl hood and no decals. That thing has a nose that I think is gaudy, a big-block hood that I think is tacky, and a high rise spoiler that I don't like. How exactly does that car look like mine again?But even if mine was the same except for the nose, since it's ne nose that we're talking about, I'm still not sure I understand your comment.

I always support someone modding their car how they see fit. If I saw someone with that front clip I wouldnt hate on them or talk smack. Its their car after all ... who am I to say what they can and cant do. For me personally I wouldnt buy it because I dont think it matches the car. But if they made a few changes (thinking actual IROC Race front lip here) I think it could look really good.

i think you have a choice of either having the traditional mean camaro look thats famous and clean.. fits the car, or the japanese look that takes the car's all-american image away, doesnt look as mean, and doesnt fit so much with a car that doesnt curve as much as say a 4th gen or any of the newer japanese cars. but thats just me, not meaning to disrepect anyones style though.

in my opinion it takes away, but that might be different in yours. to me, the meanest camaros are the sport coupes without ground effects, it looks sort of raised in the front with no lower spoiler... built motor, lopey a$$ cam, open headers, weld draglites, big tires, is the meanest thing out there,
when i look at that front end you posted, i cant see pulling up to that car in a mustang at a stop light and getting the same scared feeling of knowing ur dead than compared to what i described lol...
total matter of opinion though, half the people here probably hate the style of cars i like, everyone has different tastes so it only matters really what you want, or what you think looks good.
