  • So nice.

    I like the wheels but I think the black color really hides how dope your setup is.

      Agreed. Is there a difference between the RS and SS lip kits? I don't like how the RS looks with the kit.

      • The only difference is the SS has a different hood/rear spoiler.

          Huh, I guess the hood and SS wing make the difference. I see RS models with the lips all the time but it doesn't look as good. Oh, and I can't wait to swap a 5 speed into my RS, I want a 8 ball shift knob.

            Yeah, I'm debating on doing them in a different color, we shall see

              Yeah, it's getting a manual with the V8 swap. I start a new job Monday so I'll have the cash to fix the Mercedes and move onto the Camaro.

                • Looks great, kit looks pretty good too. Why repaint the whole car though? These cars in red are iconic; painting it rootbeer or chameleon pearl will make it look

                  • It's not paint just plasti-dip. People have found ways to tint and add pearl/flakes to make any color you want. I thought about doing camo green or just flat black even, or camo brown or camo tan.. can't make up my mind.

                    • Welp, incase anyone was wondering what was going on with this car figured I'd post since its been a few weeks.

                      Been having tons of misfire issues with the car, after spending countless hours and dollars replacing every part of the ignition system as nothing seemed to work its fixed. Ended up being the MSD coil packs.

                      I couldn't stand to look at the car the past few weeks, so I put it up for sale as soon as I fixed it. But now that I've cooled down and talking with some friends they are saying I should keep it. They say I will regret selling a low mileage clean car like this to start all over.

                      I'm at the point where I have to either start doing big things to change the car like I want it such as head/cam for a nasty lope and 450ish RWHP, or sell it and move to a new project car.

                      If I keep it, it will definitely get a cam, 1" lowering a-arms to bring the front down more, and a plasti-dip color change to some color. ( flat black with cream wheels, root beer brown with cream wheels, etc.)

                      Also the wheels would change color as someone has already pointed out the color hides my setup and doesn't show it off like it should.

                      Any opinions are appreciated.

                      And for your entertainment a picture with the bags fully inflated, 4x4 truck camaro yee-haw:

                      • That's the point I'm at with mine. Sell it and buy this 500SEC AMG down the road, or push though the annoyances and put a LSx in it. You've got a good car, but sometimes its just time to move on.

                              I feel you, I waffle from day to day. Like yesterday I took the car for a drive and it was a good time, had 2 people yelling out the car window "That car is sick!" which always makes me smile.

                              Still not sure, the more I look at 60's novas and chevelles and c3 corvettes the more I want one, but I still want to keep the camaro an hour later. I can't make up my mind. Had a guy make an offer on the camaro but he doesn't want the air ride. If I sell it to him, I might just install the air ride on my C10 truck.

                              • I say you keep the Camaro. How often do you see them dumped on air? Not very.
