Not sure what's worse, the bumper or the spoiler. They're both hideous.

I'm not feelin' it. The diffuser under the other car isn't too bad, but it only gets the pass on race cars. I understand the reason for the cutouts on the red car, but it's nothing I'd compliment on a street car.

I've never seen a Camaro with that done to it before. It was worth posting at least.

If I saw that on the streets, I would feel bad for the Camaro. For having a owner that did that to it.

The Black one on the left would look kinda cool if the lower spoiler was painted black.

The only place you'll see this car is on a trailer. Both cars are track only. Im sure the cut out and large spoiler were purposefully done.

That's a pretty cool closeout panel in the back of the red one.

I'm the previous owner, and no, I didn't do it because of looks. Once I stopped licensing it, I cut out the license plate box for air. Not long after, I decided to go for more. How much power do you think it would require to drag that bumper/parachute over 120 mph (my top speed at ECR)? I don't know, but probably more than a little bit. I like Mike's diffuser much better, and would have gone that route had I kept the car. I don't like the wing either, and the stupid thing weighs 20 lbs, but there is good evidence to suggest that it works. Then there are the ground effects. I thought long and hard about putting these on, but once you have drank the aero Kool-aid, there's no turning back. Mike and I hit 144 mph at Texas Motor Speedway. Who knows, maybe my ground effects and his diffuser and front splitter kept us from losing grip and kissing the wall! We were probably not that close to the limit, but I wouldn't want to test the limit and my reflexes at that speed. The wheels are CCW 3-piece with forged centers. The car is sold now, and time for someone else to develop it.
