Well here it is, the car is done until later this year when I add the new big brakes, tubular K-Member/A-Arms & the air ride kit in the fall or more probably next winter, I am still waiting for 2 parts to come in the mail 1: New front turn signal lenses (same kind) 2: Billet Camber/Caster Plates, here are the pictures that you all have been waiting for...enjoy!

I'll start off with the new HID headlights, it was a breese to install, it only took about 2 hours which consists of 2 power wires & a ground that hooks up to the factory wiring, the only mod that has to be done is to trim the headlight holders/buckets on the back so that the back part of the lights fit through...that is it! after that little mod everything was in place and lighting up the garage LOL! I am really happy with these lights because it's something different and I have only seen 1 other 3rd gen Camaro that has them...I think that I am the only one in Canada with these headlights on this type of car...

...here are a couple of close up shots of the HID's...

...here is a pic of where I put the ballast's, right in the front...outta site & keeping cool from the air flow, now I just have to tidy up the wires neatly and we are in business..

...you can see here the side shot of the headlight & wheels tucked in nicely, kinda like a Pro-Street Look from the front...

...from the back side, I love it how it looks...

...I put my iPhone on the rear rim to give you guy's a general idea on how deep the lip really is...

...finally the car itself on the, well not technically on the ground but on the ramp lift, the stance is nice and the new Bose "Octane" Rims really make it look wild & unique!!!

looks sweet dude.

*GTAHVIT* · 03-14-2008, 09:50 AM

Unreal.

BRAVO!

Those light are gorgeous. I wonder if adding halos would make it better or worse. Cuz they look great just the way they are.

18's is definitely the way to go with that generation maro.

Wow! That is gorgeous! Those lights are killer and wheels?...Gotta say those wheels look really good. I like that offset pic too of the wheel sticking out from the rear.

Great job and perfect choice on both counts.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you build a proper 3rd gen. Very well done.

looks like that took a lot of work. a guy at my dealership is about to be at that same stage with his 3Gen. good work and great color choice.
