Ouch, but HRE's are very expensive.

I would personally never buy a package like that from a dealer. Could do all that yourself for much less...

Those sideview mirrors. Ugh. Big ugh actually. Not sure wtf is going on with those. It's like they are trying to cram all 3 main colors of the car — red, white, and black — into a very small space that should not normally have too much attention forced on it. Plus, the overall design isn't appealing, and the pattern is kind of random. I would keep it simple — just black out the sideviews entirely.

I think the rear blackout in this case makes the rear end look very, very tall because you start with a black diffuser, then go to a white bumper, then go to black near the taillamps, then another strip of white near the top decklid, then an air gap, then a second bit of white from the stanchion spoiler. That's SIX LAYERS of different crap going on in the rear! I feel that the blackout only really works well if you have a dovetail -- nice and simple by comparison, and does't look ridiculously tall.
I think the rear blackout looks great! I'd like to see a pic of it on hyper-blue...

I like it. I think i'm going to do the same on a Red Hot camaro minus blacking out the tail lights. Wrap the hood spoiler and mirrors. I think it would look pretty sweet.

The mirrors are the only thing I don't like on that car.

Why do you want to BREAK the 3rd brake light?

I don't know about the hood but sure like the remainder, the back panel should be a factory option.

It's almost like they threw some darts at an idea board to see what would stick. Every time I notice new small details on this car, it just rubs me the wrong way. Anybody care for a red, white and blue tongue sticking out the mouth of their Camaro?

I can see adding white inserts but I also like the hood just the way it is. I was going to ask if it was possible to remove the inserts, wrap the hood and then reseat the inserts over the edged of the wrap. I guess it can be done. Looks good.

Price being in that bracket of course would be for Forged (not all our wheels are that expensive), but if you're looking for something less, FlowFormed options will more affordable than that just as a heads up - ESPECIALLY with the 20% off sale that we're having as well. A set of 20" for example comes down to $2160 for the full set

That truly makes the ff15's very tempting! Love those wheels.

I'm going to post in your thread in the wheels form.

Thanks for the info about the Flow Formed wheels. Really appreciate it. Unfortunately it is winter here and I haven't even placed an order for my Camaro yet so I will have to wait on wheels. Also the wheels I have my eye on are part of the Forged line so I will be forking over a pretty penny for those non the less lol. I've never had HRE wheels but know a few ppl who have and they swear by them so I will be going that route. Either way when I am in the market for wheels, you guys will be hearing from me
