Maybe its just me but I'm not a fan of body kits on Camaros. They usually look like a tacked on afterthought. And the Sunoco looks like a caricature of a Camaro, straight from the pages of CarToons.

A hood and spoiler can really change the look of the car, thats what I did and love it.

I like the Sunoco kit... funny how there's more votes for the ground effects, but more responses for the Sunoco. I'm a big fan of the ducktail spoiler. You don't see them often on the 4th gens. I really like the wider fenders too... I didn't notice it until you pointed it out, but it looks a lot better with those curves.

now that im actually able to see the differences in the sunoco kit, i wish i could change my vote to sunoco.
in the end, its all up to you as to wich one you want.

I worry a little bit about gaps; look at the hood closely. The color can exaggerate a gap but I've never seen one in person to be objective. If you have a good bodyman doing the work, gaps can pretty much be all worked out. It may cost more but that's bodywork for you. I just think it looks better than a tacked-on ground effects kit - no offense to anyone

i know the harrel cars well, they are kind of the ultimate joke in underrating cars. lol sure its only 400hp but it lifts the front tires when it launches...

i say put the money into your suspension and drivetrain/motor.

having a good-looking car with no power is like stuffing a sock down your pants. its all good........

until you have to perform.

Bumble Bee '77 · 09-30-2008, 08:08 PM

I wouldn't mind the Sonoco kit myself but can't seem to find where to buy one.

TFord · 10-01-2008, 10:42 PM

The only place I can find it is dynamicdesigns and its expensive, and like I said I dont know the quality of their work
