New Camaro. Where do I start?

Been driving my new camaro for 2-3 months now and I have loved every second of it. But now I am having the uncontrollable urge to make some modifications to it.



I have never been a been fan of the stock grill and after seeing the heritage grill I have fallen in love. Do you guys think it looks better all black or painted to match with IOM?

Also, what other relatively inexpensive changes do you guys think I could make to improve the look?

Thanks!

Does it have the inferno interior? If not i'd start with an inferno interior trim kit.

That looks sick. Now I have to decide which one I want first

Tint if you want it, should be an easy and cheap mod. I'm tinting my car this coming weekend for $180 all around (installed and with a lifetime warranty).

Might want to consider SS badges in the grill or trunk lid, as well as SS fender badges.

And putting vinyl over the bowties (in your choice of color).

Also consider a muffler delete if you want a little better sound. (use the google forum search to find out about it if you don't know what I'm talking about)

I am absolutely torn between the two. Which one do you guys think looks more aggressive in person?

It all really depends on your color combo or theme you want to do. I have IOM and White so I had my grille painted IOM. You have black so it might look good black too. It's up to you, here is mine

The first relatively cheap mods I did to my new IOM was to swap out the bowties for a body color painted set, LED fogs, amber LED interior and trunk lights, and a new spoiler. I'll try to get pics up this weekend if the weather is better.
