Your car looks SICK!!!
Nice and clean! The only thing I would add, is a cowl induction hood. I think that would set it off.:thumbsup: :cheers:

nice suspension set up for the rear. One piece glass is where its at. I like the look you are going for here.

thanks for the comments ....

steve, i love your camaro in the El Toro video ... it is such a beautiful car ....

i just wish mine would be running ... :( i spent a whole day just figuring out for a smart goodlooking way to add exhaust hangers ...

your video motivated me to keep going even harder and faster on my car ... :hail:

Tail pipes turned out great. I love those wheels. What width and backspace or offset did you end up with? Also what size tire are you Using?
Thanks.

The hanger at the diff is almost ready i added some cute details more pics to come ... (after finishing)

The wheels are BBS LeMans 8.5 x 18 (LM124) front and 10x18 (LM126) back. Both ET (offet) 30 mm. Bolt circle is 5 x 120 mm come like that for BMW. I dont use adapters, because you can live well with the 0,6 mm difference between 120 mm (BMW) and 120,6 mm (4.75" Chevy) .. I just added a center ring for positioning.

Tires are 235/40 front and 265/35 back.

Basically you can use any 5 bolt BMW rim on a Chevy Camaro, Nova, etc. when you take car of offset (30 mm is from 3 series I believe). But these are especially light and strong so it was worth the price.

They are available up to 11 x 19 ET 25 and even in 5 x 114.3 (4.5")
