I recently got my camaro back from the body shop and i wanted to know if through the front grill if you could see the horns on both sides near the blinkers and if the passenger side especially stands out. I never noticed them before but now i seem them and it doesnt look right.

Also i got an oil change and i was going to get synthetic but they charge $80

while the normal is 22 so for now i did the reg but then opening the hood i found oil like all over the air, engine, and fuse box cover and the fender well. I took it in and they got most of it off but i can still see it. Im not too worried abou the airbox since i was planning on a CAI next spring but why they hell would there be oil all over it?

The only thing I can see through my grill is a wire on the left side near the turn signal light, I can't beleive this wire isn't longer and is visible.

Whoever did your oil change is careless and a slob, there is no excuse for oil to be all over the engine compartment. I would have raised hell, but then again only I change my oil.

It looks better now but i can still see it. The airbox was the worst of it but there are lots of spots still on the engine cover. Id still like to see a picture of the front end of another camaro to see if anything is noticeable.

Kurushio, do your own.....I use synthetic, and for me to do it myself....oil and the filter ....$45

I do do my own oil changes but i also only have a gravel driveway which makes things alot harder (and painful lol). I also have rhino ramps that work great for my 95 but not sure about the 11. Also it was in the shop already and thought it would be easier to just have them do it. I was expecting it to be about 40-45 for syn but when she said 80 i said no way. Also 22 is about as cheap as even i could have done it.
