In conclusion, that wing does nothing but detract from your car, and its not only in the looks department.
Lastly, 4th generation camaros are aerodynamic wonders as they are from the factory. Even from a non-ant-rice standpoint, Im convinced that the aerodynamic mods youve done offer nothing but a negative effect.
hahahah
and might i offer you some help Click for your help

Hit the streets around here driving that and people will pull up to you laughing.
Just what I see on Saturday nights.

Re: New Spoiler Pics
Hey man, to each his own. I don't hate your car entirely but a few things I would of done different..
First off, paint that hood the body color. Yea carbon fiber hoods look good on some cars, but just painting a FIBERGLASS hood black does not make it look even remotely like carbon fiber, and blue isn't really the color to even try to pull off the carbon-fiber look on a hood. If you wanted to keep the black on the car, I'd say just tape off a strip that starts on the hood and paint the rest of the hood back to blue. Then continue the strip back onto the hatch.
Secondly, I'd remount that "lip spoiler" so that the hinges are underneath the car and completly hiden from most views, to me it looks like it's just "hanging" on there. Then I'd round out the edge to follow the shape of your bumper cover. And then paint it black again.
Next, I'd find a different wing. IMO, for that wing to even look "decent", it needs to be lower to the hatch and have those side whatever you call it made ALOT smaller to clear the fenders and maybe even "blend" (if you could even do that) into them.
Then, I'd get rid of that fart cannon. Some good chrome exhaust tips like off a borla system would look a lot better, Imo.
Lastly, I'd just ditch those headlight covers. They look kind of cheap to me. I'd either get completly smoke or none at all. Then to match, pick up a set of foglight covers and turnsignal covers and VHT the back mark lights. And then get those wheels powercoated black and mounted on that car.
I won't even go into what it would take for that interior..
BTW, what's under your turnsignals? I couldn't make out what exactly they were/supposed to do? Also, do you have any side shots of the car? I'd just like to see how that wing looks with most of the car in view.
Disclaimer: I'd never really consider doing anything that's been done to this car. This was all just suggestions to make it look like everything just wasn't tacked on. And that there was some sort of theme going into the car instead of "Hey, look at me, I shop at AutoZone." Personally, I'd like to see what a Camaro would look like if done right and some thought was applied to this. Instead of just tacking everything on to it and calling it done.

Hey man that hood is gel coated primer that is the way it came from harwood.

That lip spoiler is in fact a carbon fiber/fiberglass reinforced diffuser that is shaped to match the front bumper look at it again the sides are cut to match the canards, also it is mounted to the factory points using factory bolts, the TCS splitter rods allow it to be adjusted up&down for less/more downforce they have to be where they are.
Next, I'd find a different wing. IMO, for that wing to even look "decent", it needs to be lower to the hatch and have those side whatever you call it made ALOT smaller to clear the fenders and maybe even "blend" (if you could even do that) into them.
The wing is exactly as tall as the roof that is the most efficent place for it to be, those side things are carbon fiber APR style canards.
Then, I'd get rid of that fart cannon. Some good chrome exhaust tips like off a borla system would look a lot better, Imo.
Fart can or not that muffler w/bracket weighs less than>7LBS it's stainless steel construction and is more efficent than a single in dual out setup as well as weighing over>20LBS LESS than the factory setup.

The headlight covers are GTS CF PROBEAMS they are no longer produced so no they aern't going either

Those again are the CF canards, there are side shots to show the curve of the wing matching the curve of the rear it is also perfectly placed to match the curve of the bumper
