I dont understand when it became cool to bash people over their cars and thier opinions to do whatever they want to them. There's a thin line between sharing ones opinion and being a total douche.

Did you actually read my post or did you just wait for someone to quote you so you could attempt to make a sassy come back? My point was there is a difference between constructive critisim and just being mean. For example, I dont like meissenation hood. I could be ghey and post how much I dislike it or I could share my opinion respectfully with him, respect his choice to use it, then move on. That's what adults do. Anyways this thread got off track. Let's all just move on.

Well said. The problem with general message boards that are for everyone and anyone to come on to is that no one seems to have any sense of respect, it's like an e-punk fest seeing who can bash the other person the most. It's amazing the difference between one site where everyone's just some internet name and another site where it's people you actually see out on the road everyday and talk to in person. The level of respect towards one another is like night and day between the two.Lastly, I wasn't bashing you, hatredizm. I was simply saying have fun blending in with the crowd, as a stock Camaro will not stand out. Obviously, if you're going to choose all stock parts as appearance mods, you're not trying to stand out. Hence, I was using positive reinforcement towards your choice of action towards appearance mods.

Re: Wings West High Rise Spoiler vs. SS Spoiler vs. z28 Spoiler vs. RS 3 piece spoiler
Me personally...
I don't like the RS type 3 piece spoilers so would not recommend them. Some cars do look OK with them but it is not one of my preferences.
A Wings West high rise spoiler or any type of high spoiler works ONLY if you have ground effects. No ground effects and the high rise spoiler looks a bit goofy to me.
No ground effects, I like the 98+ SS style spoiler. Subtle but nice
Stock... stock is boring. BUT, I like the stock spoiler if using the Callaway entire body kit. Call me an odd ball

Re: Wings West High Rise Spoiler vs. SS Spoiler vs. z28 Spoiler vs. RS 3 piece spoiler
I will be the first to admit that the SS spoiler looks very clean and def. goes with the car and is MUCH better looking than the stock Z28 spoiler (if you can even really call it a spoiler) I also like that it uses an LED bar for the brake light.
The RS spoiler, like the SS, looks a lot better than stock, but it is pretty obvious the pieces are just attached to the top of the Stock spoiler
The main reason I purchased the Wings West Spoiler is that I didn't want to spend $325 (after paint) on a new spoiler to only have it be a Stock camaro part (this would have been the case if I got the SS spoiler). This point was brought up to me by my friend and it made a lot of sense.
Also, I feel the only people who would notice the SS spoiler would be people like us who have camaros, or people who are really into cars. With the west wings spoiler, almost everyone will notice it, and thats more of what I was aiming for.

If that offended anyone on an F Body forum Im sorry. But I also dont like the ground effects or body kits. I love when someone takes the look of a stock Z and makes it pop. I just didnt like the wings/spoilers. Would be like me putting on different front clips/rears that werent color matched.

It's got the ricer wing
But, I like it on that car because of the "stance" of that car. However, here is an example where I don't like that same wing...http://www.extreme-z.com/appearance/...ers/silverwing
I think it looks out of place on that car.
I also don't normally like the Commando style wing. However, I liked it on Crack Hed Matt's car and I really like it on my bud's car. But, my bud's car isn't "normal" and it looks good and "in its place" on his car I think...

Brent Your car is amazing.... Is it street legal??? Do you think you could take a 1998 Viper RT/10 with K & N Air Filters and a hard top in 1/4 mile?

I think if you have fatties on the back that are as thick as Matt's car, you're allowed to do whatever spoiler, hood, or appearance mod you like lol.
