2019 Camaro is awesome in new Shock color - Page 3

ZED SLED · 10-16-2018, 12:14 PM

Wonder if that color will win a J.D. Powers award so they can use it in a commercial

Chevrolet Performance updated their IG account for this concept namend "AWE". Seems like colored frontend and moved bowtie could actually become a thing

But somehow these pics look photoshopped to me. Maybe this was a last minute change? They already released the normal SS frontend pic of Shock on the facebook page

That color makes me want to throw up. It looks like baby sh!t.

It was just a matter of time Chevy made this move, especially after all of the negative feedback initially, great job Chevy

Definitely a shocker color. Would never buy that color, not sure how many people would, but the changes in front bumper makes it tons better.

ssmike · 10-16-2018, 01:03 PM

I’m hoping the colored bumper and upper grill bow tie will be a thing on ‘19.5’s! I’m SURE the aftermarket will have tons of color match bumper cover/bowtie relo kits available for sale very soon!

KMPrenger · 10-16-2018, 01:19 PM

wow....we've been saying it, and saying it and saying it.

The bowtie moved up alone makes a big difference. I think the colored center bumper also helps, resulting in a big improvement in my opinion, but perhaps the colored bumper could be an option for those that want the blacked out front end.

Now if only they ran the two verticals bars all the way down to the bottom it would be a home run.

Color is meant to generate excitement around Camaro brand. As well as getting feedback on this revised front fascia it appears.

So gain some common sense , will ya.

Not sure where common sense falls into the equation. No common sense required to form an opinion.

Simply stated that green is horrible and what kind of excitement does it generate for me? Uh "Just say no to baby sh!t green."

Makes a HUGE difference painting the bumper and relocating the emblem to the grill! I actually am surprised it makes that much difference. That "concept" I hope becomes reality because that is a good looking front end now....

GrimReaperSS · 10-16-2018, 01:38 PM

Except this is from Chevrolet Performance. So I most likely see it as an over the counter accessory. The SS would still come as is, but the Performance Parts front end change you can purchase and change the look of your Camaro. This way they still get your money on the sales floor and then again at the parts counter/service dept. I HIGHLY doubt it will be a '19.5 or '20 MY change. You may see dealers opting to install the Performance Parts front end for their lot vehicle to draw in both sets of customers, those who like the '19 facelift and those who would prefer this front end. I think its an improvement over the '19 facelift, but still not a fan. The "cheeks/fangs" points look out of place compared to the body colored center section.

motorhead · 10-16-2018, 01:48 PM

That looks 1000x better with it all being body color and emblem moved. I would buy that.

This even looks better than the Shock pictures.

On another note: Those new side skirts look cool!
