Well after installing it I guess it just didn't look right. Made the rear look to wide in a north to south kinda way because of the 5" rear spoiler.
It's up for grabs and is already painted so you'll have to get it repainted. I'd rather do a trade but seeing how there isn't many 4th Gen Camaro's posting I can't get what I want......4th Gen Z28 stk tips.
CME is priced @ 100 bucks firm.

I like the LG spoiler and it's really functional for over here at the speeds we travel sometimes....but it doesn't look right w/ the CME for some reason even though the LG gfx looks good w/ their spoiler. Weird. I didn't have the car off the jack stands either so that may have played a role too. I'll put it on again at a later date since I have all the hard ware.
But for now I'm going w/ borla tips instead. Couldn't see paying 130 for new chrome Z28 tips from RK when I can buy new borla tips (my personal all time favorite tips) for 159 bucks! Those tips dropped 1/2 in price through summit but Borla still wants 300 a pair! Couldn't pass it up. Wonder if the sound will change any w/ the those intercooled tips on the GMMG? I'll be the 1st w/ that combo that's for sure.

On ebay several companies sell polished Stainless Z28 style tips but they are improved.
Instead of the Piano style the inlet is now in the center making it look more decent and the tips are a bit wider and really makes it look a LOT better as the Stock Z28 tips was one of the very worst tips IMO.
The Borla tips indeed still rule and i doubt they'll change any sound.

@John,
why dont you keep the CME and just take another spoiler? SS for example, hmm?
CME is the nicest choice if you dont want gfx all around, IMHO

John, if you still have the CME tips, I'll take them for the $100 as long as they aren't messed up.

Candy I was thinking about that actually. I'm still going to try and have it put on and see how it looks. I'll have it on this wk and if I don't like Jerry I'll let you know.

Yeah I know. Been thinking of finding a used one but haven't decided yet. I want to do something different and I'd be the 1st w/ the LG and CME I believe.
We'll see. Hopefully I'll have a photo chop of it done soon as I took off the CME or should I say the exhaust took it off. LOL! So rich it killed the double sided tape since I don't have the CME tips on.
Where's a photoshop expert when you need one? Basic idea but I don't think this really reflects how'd it look.

Yeah I think so. I'm supposed to have it today so we'll see. Got to get out of work 1st. That may be what it looks like if I get it molded. Don't know if I want to do that just yet.

No side skirts....I'm too low as it is and that's just more crap to clean. IMO skirts don't look right on a 4th gen. Only kit I like is the Callaway minus the FRONT SPOILER!

I beg to differ, i think the 4th gen looks great with skirts as the factory setup has too much 4x4 looks so a lowering kit is mandatory and a Ground fx kit finishes it off.
I guess it's a matter of taste.
Skirts too low ?? The car is a pain as is, the skirts will not make it any worse nor will they be the lowest items on the car so scraping them is no issue, the front valence however can become a problem due to the long nose and the relatively late 'nose climb' and long 'nose dive' when passing bumps.
