Note to the photoshop people: See if you can lift the concept Camaros headlights onto this preproduction car and then darken in the ram air opening.

That's too bad, those headlamps look pretty cool just the way they are I like all the black on the front

Thats bad ***!

The thing to remember too is the white is killing the angles of the car. So when you 'chop a white image, the dullness of the white cant be improvised. So the color chops will only be half as spectacular as the car will actually be in black/blue/red ...

The assumption so far has been that since the chassis design originated in Australia where cars are right hand drive the fuel filler is also on that side.

Just make sure they are solid on the end product. My 04 Comp G GTP headlights bounced so much they would drive you crazy at night. Even with the TSB fix I still get a little bounce.

Hmmm Hot Glue???? I don;t think I have that but I do have some JB Weld the handy mans secret wepon!!! Would that be considered a factory approved method?

FYI:Mission Accomplished, the car looks great!

My guess (completely so) as to the reason the fuel filler is on the passenger side is this....

What side do you think they drive on in "the land down under"? I gather they will swap it to the "right" side on left-hand drive vehicles in America.

The test drivers can easily remove the camo to put gas in the car. It's not that hard. They are usually fueled on GM property anyway.

The only side we have not seen w/o camo is the passenger side. It's not my preferance to have it there but lots of cars do.
