Love the black paint and the wheels but the hood scope is just a little too obnoxious IMO! Otherwise, great looking camaro!

Nah, nobodys ever given me any grief from the scoop. I just drive like a normal person and cops look the other way, however I do get many looks and thumbs ups.
I love the scoop and unlike many it's functional
Not bad for a Maaco job huh

I actually like the scoop but don't care for the wheels but you did a hell of a job.

no i got the 399 on sale for black friday. as for where I got the scoop, my dad bought it about 10 years ago for his chevelle and it wound its way onto my camaro through a long and boring turn of event, but I digress. Im sure that I have seen similar ones on summit or jegs, its just a fiberglass scoop riveted on and then bondoed smooth
