No, not hardly. I just wanted to do something a little different than what everyone else has around my area. I haven't seen anything like what I'm doing on any other camaro in my area, but I'm sure after I get it done about nine other camaro owners will have done something similiar lol. That's also why I went with yellow, just to be a little different. I got tired of seeing black camaros all over town, not that black looks bad, I personally loved mine when it was black- again, just wanted a different look. By the way, thanks for the oil pan and ac lines.

yep no problem on the parts....
That car is getting a huge makeover......I'm sure you will be pleased
The yellow looks nice, I wanted to do some kandi paint but I have a bunch of other stuff that needs to be done first

No offense taken, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea. I'm happy with it though and honestly, with the work it took to make that pos fit, I wouldn't recommend a fiberglass bumper to anyone. I think it will look a little better when it's painted and got the new hood on. thanks for the honest feedback and not leaving a totally rude comment like " that's ugly as #*ck!" lol.
call X!

Unfortunately, my funds have been pretty much exhausted by piecing together all of the parts for the swap so I didn't really dig into the motor. On the plus side, it's out of a vette and it's only got around 44K on it. I've alteady bought ps lt's and ory pipe, magnaflow catback, ported 52mm tb with airfoil, and some other bolt on goodies. Already have the k&n cai and plan to have a custom tune done, but I'm debating on holding off on the swap until I get some more cash to maybe upgrade the cam and heads. I don't really want to get the swap done and then have to tear everything apart for that stuff, it would be much easier to do while I've got the motor on the stand. However, 300+ hp is definetly better than what my little 3.4l is putting out and I'm sure I'll be happy for now. Thanks for the feedback guys.
