New Side stripes and other Cosmetic Mods!!!

So Finally after a little wait for my custom side stripes, MnP Customs delivered top quality and excellent products. I was able to get done side stripes with side gills in signal red. they were not able to do the IOM stripes. so Please let me know what you guys think of the combination. Personally, I am going to remove the factory IOM stripes and get it done in signal red to match the sides and gills.

I was also able to finish rear bumper blackout, Mail slot blackout, RS decals on the hood cowl in white. positive and negative comments are welcomed. I want to know what you guys think of the new look. Also I highly recommend MnP Customs for any vinyl work you guys want to get done. All my vinyl work is from them minus the factory stripes that came with the car.

I want able to fix my DRL Harness. I had the AAC harness and it was making the halos and fogs and side markers be on all the time. I wanted to have Fogs on only during the day and then have then on with halos and lights during night time. The fix was a diode.

Looks good but almost too busy (please don't take offense to this). I think the SSX stripe (solid) would look better with your new side graphics (which look great btw). I also love the blacked out front fascia but would remove the camaro lettering on the front fenders (they are no longer needed since the side stripe says the same thing).

I wont take offense. I actually want to hear opinions to see if I need to change anything to make it looks very good. Personally, I love the look.. Not adding anything else.. Wanted to keep it not too busy but have some differentiation from other camaros. Thank you for your honest opinion

I actually love those side stripes, I usually dont but they look killer on your car. My opinion, if you take the factory stripes off, go with some signal red hood spear, I think that would really make it subtle and sleek. just an opinion, looks great no matter what. nice car

I really like the blackout rear panel and CAMARO lettering! I have an IBM and I don't think it would show very well otherwise I would do it too!

I don't think I would change a thing...maybe the front fender Camaro emblems since you have it on the stripe...but I dunno.

Thank you.. I think this side stripes are not too busy and make the car looks great too.. I honestly would love to keep my factory stripes.. just want to make sure the colors arent too off from one another.. but maybe I can photoshop your idea and see how it looks...

Yes, I would thinking about removing the front fender camaro letters and getting some flag emblems to make it better... I didnt realize how many camaro names I have in the car..
