ABM with new ZL1 front and blue HID Halo headlights - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I put a ZL1 front on my ABM. Pictures don't really do it justice, plus the son just came out, lots of shadows and glares, should have waited for the afternoon for when it has fully risen, but whatever. What do you think?

Ordered the ZL1 bumper from Autosource and got the Eagle Eye HIDs from ebay. I know most people go for whiter HIDs but I went with 8000k with the blue tint only because I thought it would accent my aqua blue metallic color well. Let me know what you guys think despite the crappiness of the pictures.

Oh and I plan to get blue HIDS in the fog lights/DRLs but just not at that stage yet. I typically drive during the day with just the headlights but put on all the lights for the pictures.

Looks good. I'm not a huge fan of the chrome on the grill but it looks great either way!

That chrome on the grill came with the bumper for some reason. It actually looks pretty good in person, but I agree as I'm not a fan of chrome in general.

Glad that people seem to like it!

Looks great! No fitment issues? Can the grill be replaced so that you can get rid of the chrome?

Looks great, OP!!! Love the Aqua Blue with the front end!

I might have my bumper installed next weekend, if you'd like to check it out in person.

And yes, you can remove and swap out for a different grill.

No fitment issues at all! Don't know if I'd replace the whole grill just to get rid of the chrome, I might be able to just take it off or paint it or something. But I'll see.

lol sorry yeah I noticed that. I'm not a photographer and all I'm taking it on is an iPhone. This car deserves a much better camera haha

Here are some more, can't guarantee they're much better but here

Oh and pardon the terrible parking, I was in a hurry

2010SLVRBULIT · 09-22-2013, 02:24 PM
