Just my two cents. I think your car is too "busy"! What is meant by that is when customizing your car you want the eye to absorb all of the vehicle smoothly and evenly and not focus on one particular item. This mistake is made often wth aftermarket wheels on cars. You notice the wheels and then the car, a definite mismatch. The Camaro badges on the sides conflict visually with the Hot Wheels badge. I would have removed the Camaro badges and put the Hot Wheels badge in that spot. Your rear end is way too "busy" for me. The eye focuses on the license plate frame and then wanders from the license plate frame to the Hot Wheels badge which kills the flow of the ZL1's lines. But as long as you're happy with it it doesn't matter.

So my plate holder is killing it....dang it and I got it to match my skull valve stem covers.

Skull stuff is too much, stop going to Pepboys.

I like the Hot Wheels badges, how much were they?

That was funny!

I'm not "hating" as Supermaro implied, that's what happens when one assumes. It was my opinion, and mine alone. It's your car I am glad you're enjoying it.

Guys,

We're all playing with cars here, making it our own. Chillax.

Cool ZL1, glad you're enjoying it.

The Camaro guys are the closest i've seen to the Harley guys, they LOVE adding stuff.... i own one of both.

That's why I own a Synergy Green Camaro, so that I don't see it's twin at every stop light or car show. BTW I have the Hot Wheels emblems ordered for mine too!

My 2 cents, Im against anything that isnt what it pretends to be.A hot wheels edition ,transformer Zl1,SS come from GM like that, thats fine!When you own an SS and put ZL1 badges on it, front end ,hood etc then it pisses me off . To me thats posing and your trying to fool people into believing its something its not.I get upset when people call my ZL1 Bumblebee. Its like putting Lambo doors on my Zl1 and putting Lamborghini badges on it! Think of how stupid that is, and make your own conclusions
