I know some customers have installed pre-painted ports with sucess. It would be recommened to paint after install.

I'm an idiot. Ive been on your site like 20 times and never scrolled down far enough to notice there was more than 1 page. Thanks a lot! These ports def add character to the front of the car. I'm not real sure if I would do this myself though, I would probably get my dad whose real handy to help me out or possibly price an install at a shop near me. Since these will need to be painted anyway Ill prolly just go shop route. Hopefully they dont charge an arm and a leg.

I was awarded "Best Camaro" by the Fbodfather at this years GM nationals in Carlisle.... I'm positive it was the T3 ports that made the difference

i know its more expensive to install a different set of lights, but the round light it the square port is just not working to well, at least for me. i was doing the same thing on my T3 ports and the round light just wasnt right, again, that just me. i know you guys will come up with some good stuff and yall alreay have.

Anyone looked at a high intensity led strip similar to the Audi R8. Just a thought.
