I think that the mail slot should have been in the the hood rather than the bumper cover. agree or disagree?

franknbeans · 05-25-2009, 09:06 AM

disagree... the slot was on the bumper cover with the concept. . . Every time GM talked to a enthusiest about the car... 90% said "don't change a thing. We want THIS Camaro, not a water downed one."

FirstLSK · 05-25-2009, 09:09 AM

Disagree. I like it where it is -- I just wish it were a functional slot.

etrigan · 05-25-2009, 09:11 AM

Great where it is.

Chevy made the perfect choice on location for the mail slot. It's current location helps make the SS how the Ram Air hoods made the 98-02 TA WS6's.

Personally, I don't car for the slot in any location. If it actually served a function, and was not just an aesthetic item, it might be a different story.

They should not have made the windows like mail slots.

I think it's just fine. Not too high and not too low. the postman shouldn't have a problem at all.

I like the cowl hood look, I think they should have just made an option for a cowl induction flap or something. I know it wouldn't be all that functional but it would look awesome. I kind of like the mailslot in the fascia, don't really think it would look right on a cowl hood to have a slot at the front also.

Like how it was born. Ain't broke, don't fix it.

z06invb · 05-25-2009, 10:16 AM

I can take it or leave it. It serves no purpose. I would just as soon not have it at all.

zman302 · 05-25-2009, 10:20 AM

I like it, Just wish it was functional. maybe someone can come up with a way to make it work
