New wheels are one...appearance is almost done for me!

Here is my 94 Camaro Z28. I'm almost done with the appearance mods. They are so far:

-50% (sides) and 5% (back) tint
-Berger panel
-97+ Taillights
-Rear Camaro Fillins
-Painted side marker lights (white)
-Lowered rear by removing spring pad
-VHT NiteShades front Turning signals
-Camaro Z28 sticker on front spoiler
-*Newest thing* 16" Zr1 rims powdercoated white




Let me know what you think!

Looks sweet man. You should lower if for sure. I would even consider getting a white sticker or something for the front bowtie. Keep up the good work man.

Re: New wheels are one...appearance is almost done for me!

Where did this whole "The Z28's have the black roof" myth start? I have a black roof, mirrors, and handles and mine's a v6. Regardless, though, I don't think it'd be a good choice because the contrast is definitely nice. Would've gone with 17 inch rims, but otherwise it's lookin good. Lower it and remove the molding and you're on your way to a good lookin Camaro. Still too stock for my taste, but to each their own. Keep up the good work, definitely shows that you take care of her.

z28s came standard with the black roof, thats where it comes from. obviously you could get a 6 with the black roof and an 8 with a color-matched roof, but they werent very common because you had to opt for that.

Yeah, they came standard, but just because it's color matched don't mean it's a 6, and just because it's a black roof don't mean it's a z.

I want to lower it about 1", but as you can see my exhaust almost hits anyways. So unless I can figure out a way to tuck it up out of the way better it will stay.

The front bowtie is next on my list along with tint the 3rd brakelight with NiteShades.

Thanks Guys!

I would have gone with 17" Zr1's but I got a deal on these rims I couldn't pass up. I got 4 wheels and tires (about 50% still left on tires) for $129 on ebay!!!

I want to remove the side molding, but I don't know if the paint is faded or not, so I dont want a bright white stripe down the side of the car..... where the moulding was
