If one does decide to go the C8 route, I think it would be wise to incorporate a lower valance into it that intergrates better with the exhaust exits. The C8 rear bumper cuts off to high, making the cars ride height seem taller than it is, which is usually the opposite effect of what people want in a body kit.

I would agree with snorkel to an extent...it should definitly so a little bit lower, but not TOO much. If it went much lower, that rear end would look like a big wall!

Well, what also also forgot to mention is that while the overall desigh looks clean, it does need to have some definition thrown into it. The rear shouldn't bulge out out as far as it does stock, but I think the C8 is a little too flat. If someone could add just a little bit of shape to the C8, that would have the potential to look great.

I just wish someone with a little bit of know-how would fab something up. (I'd even let me ride be a guinea pig)

Apologies if this has been mentioned already, but at this point the thread is 16 pages long already.

How about something along the lines of the California Camaro, or even the Banshee II prototype? Not exact, as I realize the glass and doors don't match up, but just the relative shape of the nose...much more agressive.

If I had that kind of free time I'd be out rebuilding the engine of my car, it would probably take less time...

Exactly. While I would love to see a tasteful bodykit for a Camaro, odds are highly in favor of getting some ugly rice kit just like 99% of bodykits out there.

I agree 100%, but the sideskirts would have to match.

I really would like to see somthing new for the 93 - 97 trans am. I think somthing more radical for the nose would be nice. Just a change. Nobody really made anything for those years to my knowledge.
