Part of the problem was you had posted this thread in the wrong location. I believe it was in the Signature Pictures and PhotoShop Requests (if I recall correctly) which is used for members to make requests for someone to make them a signature picture. I moved your thread to the correct location (Auto Detailing and Appearance > Members Rides > Camaros >) since you're simply showing off your vehicle.

But generally, yes, you do want to give it atleast a few hours to receive some responses.

Thanks and welcome.

Re: New guy! pics

They're not rare enough to be worth $1000.

I sold my old louvers for $150 and they were in almost perfect shape. I probably could have gotten more for them though...

Re: New guy! pics

If that is the same camaro, your should consider selling the vented shades on the back window (having a brain fart right now as I cannot remember what they are called) . People want them on the board, and if your not using em, might as well sell em.

Your ride is nice, its stance is a little hooned, but if you get some power to support them wheels, no one will speak of it.

Yes still has a few bugs, on the brightside the interior was near perfect except the headliner and 1 small stain in drivers seat.
