I have a question the the RS package. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

AmericanMuscleCars · 02-22-2013, 10:53 PM

Ok, I just got a new 2013 Camaro with the upgraded rims and the upgraded paint job with the racing stripes on it. It does not have the RS badge on it. now what is the difference between the two. should I just get the RS badge and put it on my self? I just wanted to know the difference between the basic model and the Rally Sport package. Thanks in advance!

The basic model has no HID headlamps with halos as well as no painted roof trim. I don't know what wheels you're talking about but the rs package comes with the 20" wheels as well.

Btw, the racing stripes are just vinyls

Thanks! BTW the rims I have on them now are 20 inches stock and I was wondering if I put all of those headlamps on and i some how get the trim on there could I go ahead and badge it with the RS badge. I mean how hard and costly is it for the headlamps and the trim?

more or less..

About 900 for the headlights and just paint the trim. You're gonna get the "purists" who are going to say that you can never badge your car as RS because it wasn't an RS from the factory but my opinion is simply... Do what you want. It's your car so if you want the badge, just put it on. That's my opinion.

AmericanMuscleCars · 02-22-2013, 11:32 PM

Thanks a bunch! And how would I just paint the trim. I have looked for the RS trim and I can't find it.

One more thing (probably not) what car do I have is it the 1LE i haven't been able to get any knowledge on the actual car type, it is the v6 cant get any info on it even through the chevrolet website, all I know it is a step up from the base model camaro with the beauty ring rims and the racing stripes.

If it's a V6...it's definitely NOT a 1LE. Google the VIN perhaps?

I think you're thinking of the 1LT.

GunnyG · 02-22-2013, 11:56 PM

Here's what I did...I have a 2010 2SS, Non-RS. I got Eagle Eye headlights (halo/HID), and left my badges white. My roof ditch molding is already color matched, since my car is black. Maybe see if a body shop can color match your molding, get cheaper headlights than OEM RS, get whatever badge you want, and ride that sucker like it's nobody's business but your own. Good luck fella...let's see some pics.

And, is did not mean for the "NOT" above to come off as a slight against your car being a V6. I like all Camaro's...from V6-ZL1! After all, it's a Camaro!

if it is a v6 and it has the rs package the badge would be rs if it has no badge i thk it is non rs, do you have leather seats rs has leather

AmericanMuscleCars · 02-23-2013, 12:45 AM

No it has cloth, but I am going to put the RS badge on it. I already knew the RS had leather but. IDK what my car is it is an upgraded rim package and paint job, with upgraded fog lamps or driving lights.
