Is your 5th Gen' Camaro an imposter? - Page 8 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

F-16 Camaro · 10-29-2013, 11:31 PM

Took off my SS badge on the back hoping to trick people into thinking I'm a V6 so I can get more action at red lights.

Hasn't worked so far.

I think my 315s in the back give it away...

fussboss · 10-29-2013, 11:40 PM

Heck I am about to remove my RS badge and replace it with the Hot Wheels badge because to me it is a big toy

GunnyG · 10-29-2013, 11:44 PM

I had a 2SS/Non-RS that I put Eagle Eyes projectors and halo's on. Yep, totally fronted on being an RS, but I left my badges white just so y'all would know.

Well I have the TL1 hood insert, the ZL1 Grille, and a front splitter. But kept my V6 Fascia. I did add Emblempros 1LT badges on the Grille and trunk... Funny but I have been asked a few times when did they start putting 350's in Camaros again?

putting ss badges on a v6 is a imposter but adding parts is just part of modding

LS3 Handler · 10-30-2013, 12:48 AM

Ive got a 1LS but ive added the aux guage pack and recently put on a V8 front clip. But i have custom badges on the rear deck lid and grill that says LS and bages on the hood that its a V6 3.6 Liter LFX.

Biggest imposter I have ever seen is the guy with the v6 who spent 10k plus on converting his exterior to fully copy a zl1 lol..

ben3350 · 10-30-2013, 03:04 AM

I have the zl1 bumper. Not trying to pose as a zl1, just dented my bumper and really liked the zl1 look so I went with it. The rest of my car is LT so it's pretty easy to tell it's just the bumper.

You could say my Ark N-II exhaust is posing my car as a v8 because it sounds like one and people tell me "I love the v8 sound on your camaro" all the time. Sometimes I correct them and tell them its a v6 and watch their jaw drop, other times I just smile and nod

Love my Hurst equipped emblem on the back of my 2SS. Putting them on the side looked a littie Pep Boyish, but on the back the single emblem compliments the SS nicely!

tohper · 10-30-2013, 08:00 AM

Not mine but this weekend i spotted a SS with a ZL1 badge on the hood. Was still a SS hood

I guess you could say I am an imposter with TF logos on the fenders, wheels and the door sills since I don't have a real TF edition

PoorMansCamaro · 10-30-2013, 08:13 AM

zl1 front end. bought the hood insert, installing "soon". want to get the zl1 replica rims, rockers, and maybe wing. License plate says NOTAZL1.

Ides of March · 10-30-2013, 08:38 AM

I haven't done anything to my LS as of yet. I want to add foglights and a cold air intake. But I don't see myself adding any RS or SS badges. Not trying to fool anyone.
