ground fx options

Guys, give me some ideas of what i can do to make my car a bit different, in it's styling and look.
I was thinking some non functional air vents on each fender and quarterpanel behind the tires. maybe something similar to the fender vents on the 2nd gen Z28's...
or perhaps something like the hood vents on the thirdgen TA's.

any other ideas?

I think the 3rd Gen TA fenders would like pretty original on a Z-28, don't know where you'll find ones that fit it though. Also you might want to try the ground fx from 91-92 Mros, they look sweet. A nie hood on top of that is always good.

I'm assuming you have an 82 Z28 from the member name. If you want to add 91-92 ground effects, I'm pretty sure you need to get a new nose piece as well. I think that would make it look good because I don't like the nose on the 82's. If you want something to make the car look different, a hood always changes the looks greatly. Look around for a new hood. Hope this helps, good luck.

some good ideas!

my current plan is to go with the 92 side ground fx and also the 92 front spoiler, and rear spoiler.
I'm making myself a custom hood, which is almost complete except for paint.
I want to shave my antenna, side trim and possibly my door handles as well.

I just want a camaro that aint like anything else in town,

do you think I should leave my fenders alone?
what else could I do to make it look unique?

Well...I don't know whose car this was, but I needed a car to mess with on my photo editing application. This is just the product of bordem. What do you think about the lower GFX, blackout lights, cleared turn signal and immatation billet grill.


Oh yeah...the reflection is what I started at before I did modifacations to the car.

Jiffy, it was a picture I got from the cover of a recent Super Chevy magazine. I don't remember the name of the owner but it's a sweet ride. Nice image, I'm not to fond of the ground effects but the billet grill looks nice.

I have an 84 Z28. I thought about putting a 92 front wrap on mine with 92 ground effects also. I think they look a whole lot better.
