Lookin great Ron, just gotta black out that chrome strip on the grill.

If you leave it like that, then it will be like so many others who have something different. Style is a personal taste thing, and personally I don't care for the stripped down base model look.

Yes I know about the tires! The body shop is on a small gravel road.

Looks awesome! Clean and aggressive.

Looks clean, I like it!

I personally don’t like emblems or advertising. I’ve contemplated ditching my fender lettering as well. The chrome is for old cars and is way over done on the 2014/2015 camaro. New cars should use very little to no chrome.

Had my lettering removed a couple days ago. Unfortunately, the rear bowtie had to be replaced due to the aligning holes on the 2010 cars.

Don't forget the chrome helmet too.

I'm with the "clean" look and second the vote to use vinyl lettering to add letters back, but only if you really feel the need.

paulsandhu · 05-16-2019, 12:49 PM

Yes, don't put the chrome back on. Either do not put any badges on or get black badges. I went with that option for several years. With the colour scheme you have, it would look really sharp. You can do either matte or glossy badges.

River City Creations has a lot of painted options if you want to get custom painted badges.

I actually have a set of 6th gen fender script, glossy black theme if you are interested, never opened, come with the template. I changed my mind of my build so I haven't used them.

Been contemplating removing mine also for like the past 2yrs... after seeing this thread/post I am finally going to do it. They're coming off.

Leave them off!

Ashen L99 · 05-16-2019, 02:11 PM

Thanks for all the input You guys. I think the thing I like most is the new diffuser and side skirts. I need to get the ground effects splitter mounted and I think that’s going to be it. But boy does it look like a pain in the ass.

Bottom line is it’s a personal decision. But everyone knows it’s a Chevrolet Camaro anyway. They and you paid a lot to fly those flags. Said it all before, I used to mod every friggin thing I owned, from guitars to guns to cars. I just learned over time that I ended up liking them better the way I bought em. Just me. That, and modding an old guitar destroys its value.

I wonder how many people pull that ridiculous yellow horse off their Ferrari’s?

SSEssence · 05-16-2019, 02:33 PM

Looks clean with the mesh grill, I say leave it clean

Welker2 · 05-16-2019, 03:40 PM

Like the clean look. If you want 'CAMARO' on the fenders, consider black onyx letters, that's what I went with and really like.
