The more I look at the pics I posted above the more I think that the Cruze front end would look perfect on the Camaro SS, don't you think? I even think the bowtie looks great on the cross piece on the Cruze!

Chevy needs to fire their entire design team, or take them off the crack rock they're smoking. I do think the Colorado above looks good though, the rest...ehhhhh nope.

I think Colordo looks very clean but too subdued and hence already in need of a refresh.

The difference with the Silverado (which I thought was the worst by far) is that there is very little of the body paint color visible from the front, whereas the others introduce more of the paint color with wider tabs or "fangs" or whatever people are calling them. The others also have the body paint color on the very bottom of the bumper near the splitter, and the Silverado is the only one that doesn't have that. It's just a huge black rectangle pasted on the front, basically.

One thing I noticed is that the headlights are kind of tiny relative to their opening.

Could anyone photoshop what it would look like with bigger headlights that fill that opening completely? That might make it look more proportionate...

They should have done the refresh in a way that the vast majority of people (especially Camaro owners) would look at it and immediately love it. When you hear people say that it may grow on you, that's a good bet that the design is a fail.
You couldn't get the vast majority of Camaro owners to agree on anything .

The black bar across the center looks satin to match the fascia extension and blade spoiler also.
One thing that picture shows well is that the front end is not flat like people have been saying . I can't wait to see the new SS 1LE .

Thats true only relative to this specific model. Others have plenty of body paint and chrome vs blacked out trim.

Otoh the new RAM looks like a face lifted Tundra...
You can really take the Silverado in different directions with black, chrome or body color front. This all white looks really good.

Looks like a UFO. I cant get over that weird front fender body line that goes upwards towards the front
