I cant get an email back from River City, If they can do some Carbon Fiber Looking red tint paint to some sections and then change the bowtie to a Camaro Red White and Blue Logo that would be a start and $150.00 would be a lot better then $266.00 for the OEM with the Red on it.

Will need to send them a 3rd email and see if they have any pics of any LTG covers they may have done?

That being answered. You get a lot of why and why not, well some of us want our cars to look nice some want to race and go for practicality. Others like lights some can only talk about their wifes car and act like they own the car themselves.

It's all a personal preference I used to love going to car shows and seeing all the neat little details and personalization people did to their cars. It's not for everyone and never will be but to dismiss and put someone's decision down is idiocy at it's finest because we don't know what they were going for.

I'm almost at a hybrid end on mine I want mine to look nice for the handful of charity shows I go to every year but I want to take my car down the track as well and I remove un-needed things from the car when I do. Like light bar, amp/sub, train horn air tank and compressor, engine cover etc.

SUN I think you did a great job with your car may I ask how you did your engine painting it's something I've wanted to do and just can't find anyones brain to pick.

They are really shitty at getting back to people I've been waiting for the 50th anniversary orange paint code from them for months now i offered to buy the paint and even pay shipping they decided giving me the paint code was easier but still haven't seen it. Was gonna go custom stripes to match their fuel cover i got at CamaroFest parking lot party from them in july. Long story short prolly be more beneficial to call them.
