I definitely agree. Joe's Camaro is the S@&T! And he's got a pretty good set of photos showcasing it.

Thanks ariZona28!!!

Thanks everyone. After a night of sleeping on it, and going over what you all said, AND the reason I bought THIS particular car, not just the color combo, but specifically a Gen5, and not something else, and I am SOOO not Unhappy with this car, its amazing, I'm keeping her. I really do dig your yellow cars, just not sure its me. Also, Ive been reading about what Royal Tiger is doing, and he has a solid path forward with his car performance wise, so I shall follow the teachings of the Masters.
Thanks again. I know its a personal decision, but listening to others, as many of you have had more than one of these cars, and I'm all for getting input, you guys are fantastic, and thanks again.

Thank you. We’re hoping to see 750-ish at the wheel which equates to over 900 motor. We take it to Jannetty on Saturday.

Actually, I'm happy for your decision MSgt O. The colors are different yet, still more importantly a GEN5. Congrats and good luck on the path forward.

Thanks all...it could be with a little few things your cars clone! Just cant get there with the yellow...so, now Im parts shopping...its winter, so may as well get them on order and here before the snow melts!

1JEWLDSSRS · 02-01-2022, 05:23 PM

Yea you're right, being a Z the yellow just doesn't do it for me either for some reason. lol. Here is where I have purchased most ALL of my "mod" parts from, great customer service, fast shipping and FREE. They have just about everything you would want, and the price WAS right until COVID changed all that!! Just doing my part to help you spend your money!! hehe.. Stay away from RPI Designs, Southern Car Parts, and Parts for your Camaro, they are all the same company and we all have had issues with their service.

Roger that, Thanks! Do you by chance know the difference in an SS versus an RS front bumper cover. I was out fondling her and found the right lower front bumper cover has "touch up" paint...Soooo...I'll replace it and have it done professionally. However the dilemma I am facing, is GM Parts says "not" RS....says its for an SS...but not RS. whats the difference??? and since I have an SS/RS, or is it RS/SS for parts purposes??? figured I'd ask you since you have the same. I'm going to PM you my phone number if thats OK, so we can text if thats better??? Please let me know.
