NEEDS BLACK BUCKETS

That seems to be the current suggestion of the hour. I am still undecided I might rock a white grill and red bow tie. Either way I plan on messing around with that this winter, for now they are staying white. As soon as it gets parked the nose will come back off and I will mess around with the "look" some more.

can your MIL get you some black vinyl for testing purposes?

yeah she can, she is currently working on some other vinyl for me right now as well so I could have her do that as well. Although I know that I like the black headlight buckets, it was just easier to paint them white and add them later if desired. Curt has offered to even paint them for me he wants them black so bad,

You and I must be the only two who think the white buckets look good.

Probably, I like them both ways, but I think I might try the white grill before painting the buckets black. Might go better with something else I am going to test out as well.

I think they look great too Brian.. But I'm an RS owner and lover. I have always liked the understated look of the third gen RS.

Took the car on its longest road trip to date since I have owned it. I put about 500 miles on it this weekend and averaged 25.5 MPG's! Can you believe it! Out of all three cars I own the camaro gets the best gas mileage! The car did very well to my surprise and Lisa didnt even mind driving 3+ hours on the freeway with windows down and t-tops off! Here is some of my camaro porn...

Well every stop I did make I was nervous about that VATS issue I had last week coming back and leaving us stranded hours away. But she fired up every single time and ran great. Boy did she love the country air. I did find out a small issue at about 125 MPH ish I think car kinda "shuts down" almost like it has a governor on it or something in the tune or fuel related. Not that I need to go any faster but still...

Awesome Darren! Looks great!

Thanks James, still a lot of work to do and such but she came out alright.

i have been thinking about it and i think the car looks good without the black headlight buckets. Normally I like the black buckets and if your hood stripes were black then I would think that the black buckets would be the right way to go. But on your car i like the white IMHO. the black buckets on James car look great but i think a lot depends on the other colors used on the car.

Buckets can be debated all day, but its screaming for a white grill...
