It's been a gorgeous day down here in Devon, so after taking the Camaro out for a spin I got to work!

This is before:

I then painted the light returns the correct black (as it's a z28 not an RS). Then I removed the front grill and made some mounts for my new 'show plate' and repainted the grill. Then I made some mesh inserts either side which I thought finished it off a treat. before putting it all back together again.

Finally, gave her a damn good wax:

Looks good in my opinion!! So I went and entered it into the Bude Classic Car Show in May........

The light returns in black look miles better. Good job :thumbup:

Nice work! :thumbup:

Might attempt something similar with the grille on my Iroc, personally I reckon these look better without the fog lights.

Cheers!

I carried on afterwards and made cut-outs and then added mesh grills to the bonnet bulges as well, so they look like they actually do something. Then I replaced the ugly square aftermarket rear fog light with a slimline LED one and wired it into the original front fog light switch to keep it looking original inside. The old rear fog light had a large 'halfords' type switch which I removed as it was so bl**dy ugly.

Have also ordered clear side repeater lenses and new front driving lights to tidy it up a bit more:-)

Good photo's there :) The light returns in black certainly work, there's more attitude with the front end :twisted:

Which wax did you use?
