I cleaned up the rear end a little!

TheMadHatter99 · 07-23-2008, 06:12 PM

Very nice, and probably not too too hard of a conversion for those that care that much.

*Mindz* · 07-23-2008, 06:12 PM

That's where they were originally. Had to be moved to meet fed regulations.

I'm sure a few of us are going to find a way to move them back if at all possible.

If you can move the mufflers, you can perform that modification..............

think I'm going to do the muffler to one bullet unless it's true duals then I'm doing two bullet mufflers and that's that. straight pipe after that so there would be room for it.

Cyber Sounds Cool!

True Duals with an X pipe. I'd love to have the corvette 4 missile silos coming out the back in the middle with the reverse lightss back where they were.

Out of all the redos of the reverse lights that I've seen on the site, this has to be the best, very nice job. Also, I'm loving the cyber gray.

*radz28* · 07-23-2008, 06:51 PM

Cyber Gray is rad! So is IO. I like how the lights are and a quality bodyshop would likely charge right around a grand to do that. I'm sure it wouldn't be terribly difficult to trim the lamp buckets from the existing location, patch in new little filler panels with plastic repair epoxy, and graft them into these locations. I wonder it the bumper bar is going to be in the way though...

*Mindz* · 07-23-2008, 06:52 PM

Well if you find a place that is going to do it to your Camaro, lemme know. I'll do the same.

chevydude26 · 07-23-2008, 07:06 PM

nice...can you do a photo shop getting rid of the rear bump above the exhaust to make it smoother

Rallysport · 07-23-2008, 08:06 PM

Yes, that looks better, but I think I read somewhere the exhaust would damage the lenses if they were in that location...I dunno.

4thGen · 07-23-2008, 08:16 PM

Looks good, but I like where they are on the production car too.
