Cool gfx kit

What do you think of this kit. I haven't ever seen it on another car and in tennessee, this could really set me apart from others. I think I might do this with the center exit exhaust fascia from RK sport. I think I'm just going to get some pipes to bend from my flow's and some new tips. If you have any links to some tips that would look good with center exit exhaust, post them please.

new ground effects

I'm an instant fan of the kit. Mainly because I've never seen it on one around my area, but I don't think it would look good on the newer camaros.

the vizage.... its okay...that kit only works with certain looks... what else do you plan on doing to the car? Before I'd be able to say get that kit, I'd need to know that.

check my cardomain site, the link is in my sig. page 3 shows the other parts I'm getting. The car will be red with shaved door handles and keyholes. The hood will have black paint right below the scoop. The vent holes on the kit will maybe have black on the inside of the holes. I might get hockey stripes on the car but it might be too much so I just have to think about that for a while. The exhaust tips might be the SLP duals but I really do like the chrome Z28 tips. I think that's all, if I think of others I'll let you know.

IMO With the hood you have I think a higher spoiler than the SS would be needed to even out.. And I think a higher spoiler w/ that hood and the GFX would go good together. But doing the SS spoiler w/ that hood and those GFX I dont think it will look right because of how everything is.. Thats just what I think...

with all that I say, I'd probably get a different kit, but that's me. Though if you do go with the vizage, I most def. wouldn't get the hockey sticks. The style of the hockey sticks won't go with that kit IMO.....

The more I think about it, the less I want the hockey stripes so I'm pretty sure the car will be red with just a few black accents on the hood and gfx. A higher spoiler is definately out of the question though. I can't stand a tall spoiler on any car no matter what it is. The only thing is people will rag me about the ss hood and spoiler while the engine is still a 3.4L V6. To them, I say bite me.

I think those gfx will be too busy with the subtleties of the ss styling...

I would have to agree with Derek and Danielle here. I liek the Vizage kit in some accasions but with your plans it just does not flow. Believe me, you will not be happy with it after a while. Besides, i heard a rumor that the Vizage kit has some major fittiment issues. I had problems with my Wings West kit back in the day - if this kit is worse than that - i'd just shoot yourself now. It's be less painful.

I keep looking and there is only one kit that looks good to me on the market other than this one. It's the RKSport CA 100. If the WW kit you are talking about is the Xenon kit, no offense but that one is just fugly to me, the front end has that "I ran into a pole" look going on. Some cars look good with it but it won't be mine. I am considering the CA 100 though. Maybe I'll make a pole on my cardomain site and let it run till I have the money for either kit. Price is about the same last I checked.

The poll is up on my cardomain page, check it out and give me your input. I just looked at your page Camaro94. My buddy whose in the marines right now is the only person in my area with that hood. I love that hood. Overall, nice car and everything but I think it looked better without the louvers on the rear windshiels just my opinion though, not slamming in any way.

thanks.. I understand...the louvers are one of those things that are either hated or loved... personally I love them, second favorite thing on my car. Plus my cars entire goal is to a one of a kind reflection of my personality.
