I remember having a discussion on here when you were first talking about getting the SS spoiler about the color. I think it actually looks pretty good in black.

That's not part of the spoiler, thats the hatch.
And it can go in the lounge if he wants it in the lounge.

But calling your car a trans am while it is a v6 firebird is a whole different story buddy. I have no plans for putting SS badges on my car. If you left your car alone with the hood and wing it would be fine but the badges pushed it over the edge.

I really like it the way it is:cool:
the spoiler looks pretty damn good. It'll look even better once you get it trimmed down to the right height :nod:
Picture request: can you take a side picture of the car with both side windows rolled up? I want to see how the profile looks with the tint.

Looks real good Alex, I like it.
I'm taking mine for tints in a couple weeks, a friend of mine just opened up a tint shop in Newark so hopefully he can give me a deal.
The only thing you need now to make your car look even more amazing is the Berger Panel and a hood.

$200 seems to be the average rate for F-Bodies, they even did a good job on the hatch "Dot-Matrix" thing. I payed $220 because I had residue from old tint stuck on the passenger window that they removed.
I'll have all new pictures tommorow afternoon once I ditch the side moldings and put the corners on.

looks soooo nice.
you have a pretty good eye for pictures, I like the way you took them.
did your mirrors come the same color as your car or did you paint them? cause mine are black.
I really like the tint though, I think tint on fourth gens look amazing because the whole upper part of the car is black.

Looks awesome. Like it a lot. I want to get my windows tinted but it seems the cops around here are really being pains about it. Def goining to get my hatch tinted 5%, i was thinking of tinting the door windows 35%.

Car's looking good. The side moldings definitely have to go. And can I ask why you went with the 98& up SS spoiler instead of a 96-97 SS spoiler? It looks like it's been a real PITA to get that to fit. The 96 spoiler looks great without the bars in the middle.
http://home.comcast.net/~jeffhansbury/96CamaroSS/96SSrear1.jpg
I like the way the 98+ spoiler looks. IMHO, it looks better than the 96-97 SS spoiler.

Jeff, I got the 98+ Spoiler off a board member, the price was to good to pass up. I originally wanted a Mecham spoiler but their impossible to come by and WAY over-priced. I almost gave up again untill I found yet another good deal on the third break light (LED Bright as HELL!). It still needs work on the drivers side, its on kinda loose and nothing is tucked in right now but soon.
I would love to get it painted body color but thats alot of money that isnt around!

Yeah, but it doesn't go very far. It spends most of its time in the driveway/street, work in midland park, work at the Garden State Plaza (at night) and BCC for 3 hours total a week. Trust me it has its fair share of imperfections!
Thanks for all the compliments guys!
keep em comming!

Hm... an idea me and paul brainstormed... what if you somehow came up with a paint scheme that bridged the gap between the balck poiler and black roof panel?

You mean like a fake carbon fiber hatch!:laugh:

In the attachment, that part of the hatch would need to be painted to match. then it would flow perfectly.

Not JUST on the hatch, that would lead towards the roof panel yes, but a little of the 1/4 panel too so they flow with each other...
:? i dont think that would look too great
Savage_Messiah
03-13-2006, 11:47 PM
It would have to be executed just right, 99% chance it would look crappy, 1% chance it can come out good :P

I think Alex should get started designing a paint theme for his car in photoshop. I can see that looking really nice if it's pulled off just right.

You mean that little part of the 1/4 panel under the roof panel? I think if he had the little part of the hatch in front of the spoiler leading to the roof painted black it would look amazing.
