Ok, send it on... It can ride in the back with the rif-raff... I claim no responsibilities for any marred paint or scary images in the mirror...

I've said it a few times now, If you want to buy a modified camaro right off the show room, you go with Tom Henry. He and his staff are among the very best and Tom is a car guy to the core.

When I want GM parts I go to Maureen and Becky at Rodgers Chevrolet... They are Awesome. They take care of Camaro5 members and I've never had a single problem with anything I've ordered from them.

So, since my SS front fascia was crunched by someone backing in to me I went to Maureen and Becky to see if the insurance claim would be close to what a ZL1 front fascia would cost. And here is the result. Not only did they paint it before they sent it they trimmed the fascia so that the grooves line up to the SS hood cowl and it came out damn near perfect...

Thanks very much ladies. I couldn't be happier. I like it more than I thought I would.



Here are the latest pics now that the car is clean.

I think it looks better without the SS emblem.

The match would be perfect if...

1. The fascia was sheet metal instead of a form of plastic.
2. You would wax your Camaro more to minimize sun fade and oxidation.

A twinkle in my eye because they don't start building them for a few more weeks and I really don't want the first one they build. I think we let them practice building for 60 or 90 days.
