So I got a little bored...[Photoshop]

And I wanted to make a mock up of how I would want my camaro to look.

Some will say it's rice, others may like it. Say what you want, but it's how I want it to look in the end with a LS1.



Kinda muscle car with a taste of import.(What can I say, they have nice rims.) And i've always wanted to see how the Work rims looked on a third gen.

Photoshop Mods:
-Smoked Tails
-Lowered
-Work VS-KF rims
-"Chrome gas cap" - Couldnt get the look just right.
-APR Drag Wing

And this is the orig. I believe I found it on here, so to the owner, sorry for using it, but it's just sooo pretty.

i think you should stick with imports, no camaro looks good with a c/f wing and i don't think it looks good with a billit gas door, but thats just my

I know the gas door was pushing it, but I wanted to see how it looked. And I just keep seeing the same ole OEM wings on those cars. And since I like touge, I figure it would help. And it's low profile, not some big *** park bench.

i believe that there is a reason you keep seeing the same old oem wings on these cars, they look the best and one should never try to cross import styling with pure american muscle power. i agree on the rims though, they do look kinda nice on the car. but nobody should be messing with crossbreeding these two styles together.

welcome to the board btw, now if you just loose the HONDA, you might just fit in around here.
good luck and welcome

I'm not sure about the ricy wing, but it actually doesn't look that bad, I guess if that's what u like then go for it
What do you think of the hawks 5in. spoiler?

The more I look at it the more I dislike the cap and wing. And that's exactly why I like to do mockups. Because if I buy it all IRL and then hate it a week later, i'm out $400. And i'm blending those rims right now for ya.

Mine don't have the rivets either but I get the idea thanks

look almost identical to the work rims except those have wider spokes. And are probably more $$$.

Pretty much, but you'd be surprised foose rims aren't really much more than other brands,

Unlike autozone $30 wings, that one is around $700.

And i'm going to ditch the wing. Just keep the exterior OEMish with some vette rims most likely. I just really like deep lip rims in the rear.

I figured I'd put my opinion in here too. Please dont even think of putting a wing that Ricerish or billet gas door. The owner of that car is crying for having to see it look like a cheap import.

Actually the owner has posted and he didnt like it, but he kinda liked the second one IIRC. His new rims look like the SLP ones.

ok to be completly honest i dont think that first photoshop is that bad, i know im probly get fraged bein called a *icer or somethin but i dont care, i was suprised when i seen the gas cap and didnt think it looked bad, im so used to seeing stock bodies its just somethin different, not to *icer, but the wing im not really diggin, even though its a high quality one. and to anybody that says i need a honda they know where to put that comment .
