Necessary Mods?

Hi Everyone,

So I'm patiently waiting for my victory red camaro with black stripe package to come after placing the order a couple of days ago and I've been doing research on the purchase for about a year now via this site so you can imagine how happy I am! Anyway, I know the title itself is subjective as mods are typically unique to the owner, but is there anything in particular that people HIGHLY recommend? I mean either beacuse its at the right price or it just looks 1000x better and is thus considered a must? For example, I plan on getting the heritage grill put on based upon overwhelming suggestions saying its a great mod for the price (btw, can anyone recommend any websites to purchase this?) and it looks great. I've got upgraded polished wheels, RS package, upgraded stereo, connectivity package...anything else either optioned or otherwise that is recommended?m Since the order just got placed I can probably add an option too if there is one that people just love or the major consensus is that its a must. Thanks everyone.

Ok on the real though

What you should do is PLAN CAREFULY take your time think it out have a final plan. Don't just mod for mod sake make a clean nice organized theme car

There is a mod car there is a theme car and theme cars always look better IMO. Cause there is thought planing care and time put into it. Anyone can drop three grand and make a cluster f&(& car with so meny mismached peices and OH YEAH THAT LOOKS COOL AND THAT and they don't match . Style wise vibe wise or look wise

If you do that you will have a KILLER camaro

Also be brand loyal a car looks so much more better if you stick to the brands you like....K&N and Flowmaster make a good pair just saying pick what you put on as much as styleing OR make your own.

Also find a local sing shop and have them do your stripes save you money and look better be a one off. Check my camaro thats what i did saved me a ton of money too

Nice ride. Could you give me examples of what you mean by "having it themed" based on what mods you got?

A theme car to me tells a story give off an image you want to do ok example


lets say you want the camaro from HELL so how would you go about that?

take a seat i will explain

Hell is fire and lava and pain and torment right? so you get a nice real flame or just flames as stripes

Then you get the bay the motor cover in flames and the lights from acc white and red

and so on make it look like Hell On Wheels alot focus on performance mods more so then visual mods

ok take my camaro i wanted a deceptcon camaro correct so i got a custom stripe kit some badges and some blacked out rims simple but effective bow tie delete and rims did the job and i am still working on it

Also price is not an issue here my whole car my rims was the most pricey thing 1,700 total my stripes? 350 my badges total 75 bucks and i got other mods in the works so its not about money its about being. Creative being yourself and puting in work and ground work. Finding things and let your imagination go

besides the rims (i needed them balnced and mounted) and the stripes (way outside my realm to do that right) ever thing else i did myself or with help from someone else simple sh!t

Another tip black out your side markers and reverse lights SO SIMPLE

go to wal-mart get you some 2.5% or 10% lowest you can window tint and put it on take you 30 mins tops

clean it good and put it on simple sh!t like i stated and only cost you 10 bucks nothing to take apart not hard
