Help the back of my 1LE. - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jims Mongoose · 09-13-2013, 02:24 AM

Hi guys. I love my 1LE, black on black 2SS 1LE no RS.

Most of my mods to this car will be performance, but I have a few things I'd like to improve.

The back needs something. I am considering a a black carbon fiber strip on the back trunk lid where the Bow tie is, from one side to the other, between the taillights. It will give it a little texture and not be to much --- I think. Also considering the small thin trim rings around the back up lights.

What do you, think and any other suggestions or opinions.

included pictures of my car.

I agree, also paint those tailpipes and black put the reverse lights.

Black out the tails and rings. Stay away from carbon fiber

Get rid of the plate frame. Black tail bezels. Black the whole bowtie.

Get the technostalgia LED taillights. I'm gonna miss them....

Jims Mongoose · 09-15-2013, 12:33 PM

Thanks guys, all good thoughts. Great pics.
Anymore ideas. I do want the spoiler changed. Any spoiler that looks like the ZL1 but uses the factory holes?

Black out the bezels like everyone has already suggested, black out the reverse lights and instead of blacking out the brake lights I'd go with the SJM after burner lights and if you go carbon pleases get real carbon fiber, vinyl carbon looks nothing like the real deal and is so tacky. Seibon has a nice carbon fiber trunk with a spoiler molded into the trunk, there's a dry carbon finish that matches the matte vinyl.
