Looks sweet! How do they go on? Just over top of the glass?

Are you able to take a pic of your car from the driver side? I want to see how it looks with the black fuel door.

Are those Cervini side scoops you have there?

Thanks

Thanks! You can't beat the price at $80 from Shelby Performance Parts and they will last a long time.

Looks good. I would paint your sideskirts and the lower valance of the rear bumper flat black to match the front chin spoiler. Or trade skirts with a V6 and get a GT500 rear bumper...

like the black better, but I'm still totally biased towards SHR's louvers

I think even real dark tint on the back windows looks a lot better than stock, especially if youve got extra black trim pieces.


I painted my lower bumper trimline/rockers/wing semigloss black, had about 200 in materials (all PPG). Paint is really getting expensive. almost wish now I just woulda spray bombed it in bumper paint- touchups would be free/easy...if I do the 09, thats how I'll do it, I still wasnt happy with the semigloss of the clearcoat I'd used...
I had bought a new camaro in '85, and painted the (brand new mind you) headlight buckets and the stripe down the center of the taillamps with Krylon bumper black in a spray can- it looked perfect 20 years later when I repainted the car...acually it was about the only paint still intact on that POS...85 was the first year for gms waterbased basecoat, and it was maybe 3 years old when the hood and roof started blowing off in sheets. I'd also painted the 'spiders' in the wheels and the door handle inserts tempo touch=up blue, that also held up perfect...the car only had about 60k on it in '05 when I gave it to a buddies daughter...he let his son drive it and tore that car up...never again.

I wouldn't say it's difficult, but it's not easy either. The stripes are designed to go on via the wet method which allows you to slide them around until you're happy. Also, remember that you'll be doing each precut section at a time which is much easier to deal with. You can start from one end, or at the middle, depending on you're preference. A good tape measure, a handheld squeegee and painters tape will help you out during the installation.

Covers look pretty good.

I've been debating a set for awhile now.
