Hey folks, I seen this Camaro at SEMA last year and I was wondering if there's anyone on this forum that has installed a retro kit similar to this..

Local dealership had 2 done up that way... one white with IOM stripes and another black with IOM stripes... both sporting a KB supercharger and other goodies

I think it looks pretty good, that is as long as it doesn't have that god awful chrome retro bumper on the rear

The front chrome bumper doesnt look too bad but that rear one makes you want to

I'm with you on that, I'm not a fan of the rear bumper. There were 3 cars displayed last year at SEMA as winners for best Camaro and the top 2 had the retro kits..

I do not like it. It was done nicely though.

Nice ,but not for me

LimaCharlie · 09-08-2011, 10:59 PM

Nicely detailed but the proportions are off. Too much old-school on a new-school body.

The conversion

I would recommend purchasing a 1969 Camaro

Wouldn't recommend mixing them IMO

I guess that looks okay, but not for me. I have never owned a camaro (vette and nova ss) I bought my 2010 SS because of the way the front end looks and the horsepower. Just my 2 cents.

OHIOSS · 09-09-2011, 08:20 PM

No thanks...

Not my taste at all. I kind of like the hidden headlight conversion like the 69 Camaro.
