Brotherhood and one Sister, im thinking of the LPE ground effects kit, without the hood..thinking I will do a normal cowl hood instead. What say ye?

Here is my thoughts on GFX, and take it with a grain of salt!
The 2010 mimics the first gen Camaros in a lot of ways. This being said it also has it's own feet in modern design.
But gfx's were a thing of later gens. A limited degree in the early 2nd gens, more in the later years, and a pimary influence in 3rd gen.
Ultimately I guess I don't like em. Not hate em or anything. Just don't care for the mix.
To me the single best design influence on the 2010 is the fact that it gets away from the bubble car de jour that we have seen so much of since the 90's.
To my eye, gfx start creeping back in that direction.
But, anything Lingy does is cool by me!

I like LPE's because they are functional. As the car itself is not rated for over 155...and ummm i have been known to play above that range for extended periods a time or two for money...on a closed testing track of course that circles a large metropolitan area.

Shipping is pricey.. save your pennies.

It is worth it in the end.. the power is great! I love how my LPE 570 kit came out!

Yup.. gotta make it your own look. I am piecing my body/GFX together from different places as well.

I already have the Revolution hood. It will be functional to route the air through the scoop to the CAI.
I am thinking I also use the revolution chin spoiler, as it will be functional for brake cooling.
I have a carbon fiber rear spoiler coming from NPE. May change this over to the LPE spoiler. I want to see more pic's.

Just waiting on more details and pricing on the LPE components. I am hoping we can buy the Items separately. I still need side skirts and a rear diffuser.
