Thank-you for that segue.

here is my simple, inexpensive suggestions for GM:

1) different ground effects for the rear
2) 19" wheels for the LT/RS package
3) no halos with the LT/RS HIDs (or different design).

In other words - just simple differences all around the car.

I'm aware that with the aftermarket - you can make your car look like anything you want, and that's okay by me. I just think that the stock mods should be different because that's what you're going to see the most of on the streets.

GM is never going to go by my suggestion, so this topic is purely academic. I'm just ranting.

I lost a ton of money doing aftermarket mods on a car when I sold it, because few people want to pay for aftermarket mods. That's why I'm hesitant to make the same mistake again with my Camaro. The LS is the "base car" so every dollar you spend more than the base car IS a mod, and therefore there should be some visible benefit to the mod. I want the car to look progressively hotter for every $ I spend. Every aftermarket mod is an aesthetic improvement, whether it be sound, looks or feeling.

My bemoan is that the LT/RS looks virtually the same as the SS/RSS except for one thing: the bumper. Just like those of you who bought the RS package for your LT want your car to look hotter than an LS, I also want my SS/RS to look hotter than a LT/RS - so I'm using the same logic.
