So ,this guy made a left against the red light and tagged me. For 30 years I’ve been pretty good about avoiding people who do dumb things, but this time it was like he came out of nowhere.
So the car is crushed at the front left side. (Fr left fender, door, fascia, not sure about the rest yet.

If I have to go through this hassle for my car to get fixed, I at least want it better than before.

Can you guys chine in for some advice?

Front Fascia:
Factory Fascia
Unrestricted motorsports (with integrated spoiler)
ACS Composites T3 Fascia
http://www.acscomposite.com/store/st...product=748667

SEIBON 10-11 Chevy Camaro Carbon Fiber 10mm wider

first off sorry about your baby ! second i think the t3 is sweet but i dont like the lip it comes with .... second im not sure about the fenders being wider because its not gonna look right unless you have the right offset wheel !

My current thinking is:
T3 Fascia,
Gary’s custom vented fenders (they are stock width),
Heritage grill

I do not think the T3 fascia ports are all that representative of the ones from the bumble bee Camaro though.
I wish it retained some form of fog light (sigh)
What is the lip you are referring to?

Trying to figure out a way to add amber to the halos while it is all apart.

....anyone else?

Sucks about the accident...but I did the same with my accident lol...UPGRADE!

You could go with the T2 by ASC composites if you don't think the T3 fits the style. It's pretty myth the same but with black inserts instead. Plus I'd you don't really want the bottom lip you can order the bumper without it. It's around $400 cheaper. I'm actually thinking about getting it myself. Basically the same setup as you, Heritage Grill and such, I think it would look awesome. Really sorry to hear that such a beautiful car got hit.

Sorry about the accident man, i know how you feel.
I got rear ended last fall because this chick was texting and driving on the highway so she ended up slamming into me and cracked the bumper. When we were exchanging info on the highway shoulder, some guy drove by slow and yelled "You hit a Camaro? You B!$#H!!!!!" I almost laughed out loud in her face but i kept a straight face... :|
