ha, I was thinking "those wheels are pretty sweet!" and skimmed right over the second-gen bodywork.

I like the tail lights, but not so sure about the front.

The tail lights look out of place...but probably only because I know what should be back there.
Not sure I understand the red front turnsignals, but the grill looks like a very expensive billet piece...I think if the openings were smaller and more of them?

But there's zero wrong with how it presents, only since you asked specifically I'm being very nit-picky on an incredibly beautiful build.

Gorgeous build with amazing craftsmanship. I don't like the flow of the tail lights and would prefer yellow or orange turns signals on the front. Car has a very European GT feel and look to it. I dig the blend. Mayhem is my favorite build Mark did simply due to the Euro vibes it gave off with the offset orange stripe. This car gives me those same vibes.

Jeff,

I think it was just the lighting etc that made the front turn signals look red. If I find out for sure what the true color of the lenses are, I’ll post it.

Love it! interior styling cues from a Singer Porsche, I usually don't like a Camaro modded that far from stock but it works, super original and well done!
