You Know. the more I see the retro stuff the more I like it... I'm not brave enough to do it to my car. But it's a cool build either way!

I really hated that chrome bumper thing, but if you are consistent with all the retro chrome accents I think you can pull it off. It especailly looks better on a white car since it doesnt contrast as much. In your case, I like it

retro

well my take on it is the 2010 camaro is a retro based design combining
69 looks with modern tech, so this trim serves to help enhance g.m's intent
with this car . bottom line this camaro is a retro design as is current mustang
and challenger. i have a 09 vette and it would be of a modern tone standing
on its own merit and design as a world class sports car and not copying
previous designs. at any rate the camaro ss is truly a great looking car,well
built and fairly priced. try to restore or build a 69 to 2010 specs and you are looking way north of 50,000.00

Not a fan of the bumper. To each their own.

I don't think the chrome looks good.

The grille has a nice clean look to it, but the chrome is too much of a distraction. Less is more.
