And back to our scheduled programming....
As part of the front end refresh, we wanted to do something a little different with the windows in the sliding headlight doors. We sourced translucent smoked gray acrylic so the lights could still be seen through and machined the pieces to fit with some fresh styling.
I really enjoy this car. Its got "a lot" going on BUT its suttle and simple and requires a good look to really grasp all of it. Thats my favorite type of build.
Im realatively new here(maybe i should start an intro thread?) but i think i will just leave a short comment reguarding what has been going on in this thread.
To me, a car is nothing other then a reflection of yourself. You have yourself or a shop do what you like to it. Sure shops help with insight and what not but the end result is always the car that you want. Weather that be a sleek simple clean build to something extremely radical or something with goofy colors that maybe only a handful of people will like.
Bottom line is that if that customer gets the car of their dreams when its said and done, that is the ONLY person that has to be happy with it. The shops are just here to aid and help in ones dreams.
Carry on with the thread. I love the fact you guys show whats under it all.

OUTSTANDING WORK .... could you imagine walking into the Chevy dealership and picking up the keys to a car of this caliber and leaving w a **it grin on your face!
Although, I love every aspect of this car from the color to the custom splitter, what very small detail I love the most is the two-toned bumper. I love how the contoured lines of both bumpers splits the black paint from the white paint. That is so cool. To me, that small detail gives the illusion that the front grill and tail are larger than they really are. When in reality, it is just the black paint extends onto the bumpers.
Shoot, they can make it out of it all. But, this one on the Camaro looks to be aluminum, I presume.
I have seen them do it both ways... For instance.... Rampage is carbon but other projects I have seen are thin wall steel or aluminum. Whatever the project calls for and the application.

What he said!
Big leap of faith from an owner that has all black cars to go white on this one...how does that conversation go? Obviously the right decision, basic white has never looked so good! Love it!
