I'm still thinking those stripes will look good on a darker colored car. Silver or white have to be about the worst cars to do this on, and to have not applied them correctly (as it looks here) just doesn't lead off on the right foot. Though I can agree with that body panel line between the fender and bumper facia is a little awkward, the stripe on the facia can be pulled closer to the stripe on the fender, tightening the gap. Still, I like the idea and think I'll still go with those stripes. I'm a little worried about how they'll stand up over the years to the sun and weather, but I'm sure they'll be fine.

I think that fuel door would look better polished, but it seems to kinda' distract from the lines of the car. I like the "Camaro" script, but otherwise, I'm on the fence.

Spoiler - I like.

Mudflaps - I don't need; think they look good; seem to be a fair price for those who need/want them.

Wheels - I like; look good; are very $$$; but won't be ordering them. The tire size is one of the details that's keeping me away. Also, it's heavier. I like how aggressive they are. I'd prefer the ones on the LS7 Concept though. I'll be going a different OEM route with my wheels I think because I just have another design in mind I prefer.

Though I can't agree with all the details of these accessories (or their execution) I think it's good to have factory support and options. I don't recall getting this much support for the 4th. Gen. (for good reason) but you can't make everyone happy.

Thanks for not letting this thread get out of hand

That hockey stripe on the passenger side looks like hot sick @ss! I think a 5th grader could have done a better job on the stripe work. And to the person who said "Gm wont' let that go public like that", all I can say is.................................they just did!

And the shadows make the SIM look weak at best, but alas it's just a shadow and that changes.

I have to agree with some of you that the black is tooooo matte'ish. I prefer the stripes on this car ( might have to change my order to CGM stripes ).

My stripes will be painted on my baby. Mud flaps/splash guards are for trucks. Rims look good, I would want to see them on a different car before I would pay 4K for them. The fuel door doesn't work with silver. But overall I'd still drive it

Hate all of it - just makes the car look like it was sneezed on by an auto-tuner shop (Halfords here in the UK). Just, wrong. IMO of course.

I'm pretty sure that fuel door is plastic, but is there any chance that I'm wrong?...
