Wanted! Pic of Black 2SS w/ground effects.
On order: Black 2SS, RS, w/ground effects. I'm struggling with the 21" wheel combo. This pic shows the exhaust tips in chrome or maybe stainless. If in fact they are chrome I think I need the two tone 21" wheels instead of all black. I have yet to see a pic other than this one that shows the rear facia like this.
I was hoping someone has received delivery of such a car and could help me out. Also, I have ordered the inferno interior but I am wondering if its gonna be too much. I think its a real good look but is it too loud? any opinons on this one? |

I'm almost positive the tips are chromed as opposed to stainless steel.
The color combo is a 100% personal preference, if you're worried about it being too loud, it probably is (for you). Only you know what you like, go with your gut and you'll more than likely be happy with it.

Thanks! I have also ordered the vynil stripes in inferno but I doubt if i'll put them on though. I thought it might be a nice option on the window sticker when it came time to resell.
My God! Did I just say resell? |

From what I have read on this site somewhere the square pieces are chrome but there not actually exhaust tips. The exhaust tips are tucked inside the cover but i'm nor sure if you have to cut off the originals tips for clearance.

I haven't heard that yet but you are probably right. I'm not real sure I'll even let the dealership put them on for me. I am extremely picky and I've gotta have the rear deck spoiler painted anyway so I'll probably let my trustworthly paint shop take care of all that for me.

I have held the ground effects (they came in before my car).... and I can say.... the tips sure look stainless to me... if they are chrome, they need to be polished a bit.
btw... the wheels in that picture are not available as an option (unless lighting is playing tricks on me)... there is a polished 21" set (see pic below) and an all black 21" set... the set in that picure is the polished 21" that has been "black chromed" only on the polished section.... presumably by a custom shop. The Camaro "Black" had all the chrome refinished to this "black chrome" (tips, rims, taillight trim and decals)... you will have to do this custom (powder coating?)... I plan to do this ASAP. |

This has the best look for a black car that I've seen. Like you I am going for the all black look but like the inferno interior. I am just wondering if it will make a nice accent or take away from BLACK.

In this picture you can see the tips of the exhaust.

yes... but not with the polished sections of the rim "blacked out"
these are the black ones.... (see post #6 for the polished ones ... then look at post #1 for the custom ones) ... the rims, tips, tail light trim, and decals seen in post #1 (Camaro "Black") are not offered by GM I would know, I have been drooling over this car since the release of the SEMA concept pictures (see Avatar) Last edited by Bell040; 04-27-2009 at 03:36 PM. |

Thanks for the help and the pics! I think now I need to go with the polished 21's to go with what little bit of chrome trim there is. Sitll in limbo on the inferno interior and stripes though.

I thought the ones in the first post where the same as the ones on the yellow camaro in your post.
Maybe not.
