your car, your money, your decisions.

Find something that you want to do with the car and go with it. Remember, opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one and some are shittier than others.

It's nice to ask opinions but ultimately you have to be happy driving it.

I'm about to dish out some decent $$$ for the work Jerry is going to do on my car. My friend asked me why do I need to do that. I said it's not a need, it's a want.

Like Matt said: your money! But personal opinion every time i mod something in my car it's has to look, feel or sound completely different from stock... you see i was thinking that you was going after the 1LE look... SS front with the 1LE splitter, ZL1 skirts and ZL1 rear... that in my book look very good! and you can top it with the ZL1 wing spoiler and black mate hood!

I don't think going for the 1LE look it's that expensive... You can get the same splitter Jerry has, I think you have the side skirts so you just need wrap the hood mate black or plastic deeped... I think it's going to look awesome!!!

I figured since now that I'm pretty secure in the job place once again and now have my paychecks rolling in, it's time to get back into the mods.

I've started my build thread here:

1le splitter is like 700 not getting that. Dont want the rpi one becuase jerry and dave have it. Either slp or t4 if i got the ss bumper route. Im not doing a flat black hood!

over time it will definitely come back. Because the bumper is made from urethane there's no way to properly fill it in. you will take a chance of it cracking and seeing a ring eventually from the sun beating on it.

Why don't you just get a T5 splitter and keep the bumper you have.

[One Sick Camaro]

Get that dusk splitter. Your lucky now theres lots of nice v6 splitters
