post pics of your 4th gen
I finally took some pics of my new car, a '99 Z28. This car was bought factory stock with NO upgrades whatsoever. It was one of the cleanest Camaros I had ever seen up to that point.
So, I replaced the stock black Z28 badges with a shiny new set of stainless steel badges from Emblem Pros. They look absolutely great! Much better than the "black on black" badges that came stock.
I also put the stainless steel Camaro inserts in, also from Emblem Pros. Again, drastic improvement here:
The stock spacing on the rear badge was a little close for me, so before putting the new badges on I marked to move the bowtie 1" to the left.
Here's a close up of the rear (mind the dust and fingerprints, I can't wash until tomorrow while I wait for the adhesive to set):
And the sides:
Now, the only performance upgrades I've done are the SLP lid and K&N filter. I still plan on getting the SLP LM1 exhaust and a set of stainless rectangular tips to keep the distinctive Z28 look. Minor things I plan on doing (and have already purchased) are new AC Delco iridium spark plugs and GM Performance plug wires. Also, I am also going to paint the calipers red (with the arched Camaro logos) and change the rims/tires to '02 SS chromes with P275/40Z R17s to hopefully bring it all together and set it off.
Under the hood:
And last, the interior, not sure what I can do in here:

The last 3.
I plan on doing adding some little things to it within the next few weeks. Just basic stuff. Black the tail lights, smoked head light covers, smoked turn signal covers, black trunk letters, rims, take off the ugly plate holder and add a grille, possibly black hood stripes, and various other things.
I'd love to get a SS hood, though.

I don't want to sound like a copy cat, but where did you get those rims? I've been trying to find some something like that, but everything I found so were ugly. Those look amazing.
