I think it looks great,how-ever i would prefer them to be more "recessed"into the hood,and maybe a more lower profile.

Agreed. It looks tacky as it is honestly.

I think everyone who's done any kind of mod to their Camaro should post it here to be picked apart. I don't remember reading where he asked for our opinions. Be glad he's an enthusiast and has the brains to be different.

Here's my mod, I bought an LS and had the factory spoiler added to the decklid.

Wow, looks awesome!

this is a public forum if he posted the pics he is going to get opinions if he or anybody else doesn't want to get opinions or picked apart like you said then don't post pics on a public forum, I am sure if he put them on then he likes them and that is all that matters.

I don't like them but I am not paying his car note.

I like everything about that car except those "grills," and I hate them.

BTW, it will not reduce your under-hood temperature while the car is in motion -- not that it matters even in the slightest -- just like the placement of the Procharger's intake has absolutely zero effect on its performance at all, positive or negative. You know, just like a cowl hood, the pressure outside the hood is greater than inside it, thus air comes in, not out. You know, like when you open your windows.

I don't mind comments in either direction, I am building this car for me. I am only sharing because I have always loved Camaros and I am assuming that everyone else here does as well. I have never thought that a muscle car should be yellow but I know many on this forum LOVE their yellow cars, to each his own. This one is mine, and I love it.

Not my cup ot tea, but I would have to say, a 70 Chevelle Cowl Induction would look REALLY cool in that bump in the hood. And Yellow for me Screams Muscle

Love it! COOL

BJ350HP · 10-15-2009, 11:54 PM

I like the idea but they need to be recessed more in to the hood. (if there is anyway of doing that)

v6sonoma · 10-16-2009, 12:01 AM

I wonder how they would look flanking the power bulge? hmm
