I thought it was rain-x. In fact, I have some...but can't remember who makes it.

Yep. That's the plan.

Here's the Camaro with the new hockeys minus the new rims.
The following picture is how it will look after getting the new CGM wheels. IMO, it's going to need those CGM wheels to make the paint work. (The THRSS LS3) on the side of the cowl is only photoshopped.....don't pay attention to that). If we put something there, it'll be a bit different.

Thumbs up Nice

Turned out great brother. The blue going around the stripes makes it look like chip foose had worked on it, really nice :flag2:

Any chance you can get a pic of those wheels in all chrome on your car? They are nice but you can still go "louder".

I think the factory wheels actually look better.
Just my opinion.

LOVE the opinions, guys.

Good or bad. All opinions are welcome.

I REALLY have to have the wheels to pull this off (in my mind). As soon as someone comes out with front clear corners, I'm going to put those in as well.

I am most likely going to add "THR" in CGM and "SS" in blue on the sides of the cowl. Toms vinyl guy is cutting some pieces now in the proper "font" to see how it would look. As he finishes and puts them on the cowl, if we all like it, we are going to spray it on. That'll help to tone down a little of the silver on the hood and tie it all in.

My idea is coming together slowly.....

Two questions:

1: Do you all think GFX would look good on this?
:if so, painted or stock?

2: Rear panel is currently silver (I wanted to be different). The blue bowtie will go on that with a blue SS off on the right side. Should I keep it silver and be different?....Or, do you think going with a flat black similar to the lower diffuser area would be better? The ONLY real issue that concerns me is this....when it's night and you are behind the car, will it look like a construction strip of silver?....or will it blend in nicely? If it looks contsruction(y), I'd much rather just have them spray it black and call it a day (with the blue bowtie on it, of course).

Opinions?

They are welcome!!!
