Finally Finished

Took me a good 2 weeks but she is finally ready for the road again


The only thing i have left to do is put my headers on and get the ZEX kit hooked up that has been sitting in the trunk for the past month. Also custom headliner and all new stereo system including Fosgate head unit components all the way around and 1 10'' sub in a custom fiberglass box with the bottle bracket built right in .

Hey I respect your custom work. Could you put up some other photos, esp one that doesn't cut off the nose of the camaro? Its kinda driving me crazy. And what kind of 'custom' headliner you making?

This should be good. I don't really like it myself, but I'll leave it at that. Let's see if anybody else can show restraint in their criticisms. Paint the headlight buckets black...it'll look a lot better.

I have those same seat covers

edit: why does it look like your headlights and fog lights are painted? You also need to paint your side mirrors purple or paint the top black to match.

...Why are the headlights and foglights painted? You should remove the masking and show us a pic... if you did mask them off. At first, I thought it was a fiberglass front end and the headlights were fake, but those fiberglass front ends for racing don't have fogs...

I'm not a big fan of the black salad shooters. Don't look good with the purple or silver. I agree about the mirrors too, paint them purple.

The salad shooters probably would have looked better unpainted. I also agree with the others about the mirrors, they should definitely be painted, they look too out of place.

Everyone of you are right. I got it out of the paint both and came to the house and took the pics......when it got dark i went to turn on my lights and had to take it off in subway parking lot... The headline is just going to have the slashes like the side of the car has. and the side mirrows came off my parts car cause my GF dropped one of my painted ones, scratched it all to hell and broke the glass so i just stuck the black ones on for the time being. The wheels have to go for sure I found a set of the chrome 07 vette wheels that a guy took off just because he didnt like them and because he is a good friend of mine he is going to let me have them for 800$.....just got to get some more money saved up. other than that i have the paint codes for a perfect match and i might shave the door handels on my other doors and put them on there. I was told that (I) couldn't do it and now im pissed and i think im going to take a shot at it cause i have always done trucks and other metal doors.....But i will get some more pics up of the stuff i have brewing....BTW Captin check the side by side thats what it looked like before i painted it on the left

If you would had seen it up close you would say otherwise. The guy that had it before i got ahold of it dogged the hell out of it and some how thought it was a 4x4 and tried to take it thru a field, ran thru a barbwire fence and about tore the passenger side rockerpanel off.......It needed paint bad....... But I like it and i think thats all that really matters
