Hi my name is Sam Gonder and I live in Hubbard, Ohio which is right next to the lovely city of Youngstown ha! I purchased my 1997 Camaro almost two years ago and I love it! I want to do soo much to it, but work doesn't pay that much.

So far I've just worked on the appearance, Grillcraft grill, blackouts for the back, and the front (bought two pairs, but one flew off and another got broke so I need to buy them again), a Flowmaster muffler w/ 3.5 in tips, I got the front and rear ends repainted (when i got it they were pretty bad and the front fender got cracked when someone ran into me and left), Silver C-A-M-A-R-O and 3800 V6 that reflects, Windows are tinted 20% in the back and 35% on the sides. I needed to replace the clutch and slave cylinder after a couple months, which really sucked cuz it cost so much. I have a Pioneer P5500 MP cd player. In a month I'm going to get new wheels and tires, I'm still debating on what to get, the Z06 or C5 wheeels and whether to get 17's front 18's back or just 17's all around.

If I figure out how to put pics on these message things I'll give ya guys some. If someone could help that would be awesome!

Nice car bro! Especially them exhaust tips...nice!
You next mod should be getting rid of those hubcaps though. Not too popular on the pimp strip.

Very clean black car. Nicely done. I'm a bit worried that those tips are sticking out too far. It might just be the angle though.

Your car looks way too nice for those hubcaps. That is definitely the next upgrade that would be on my list. Go with the 17's. That extra inch costs a LOT more to wrap a tire around. My vote would be for the C5's.

Very nice car. I love the black, only bad thing is hard to keep clean. Definitely lose the wheels. 17's all around zo6 chrome, would be a very nice touch. Dont know if you are familiar with all the performance sites, but their are quite a few around. Summitracing.com usually is the best bet

not too shabby at all. the black on black looks good. start looking for some rims before anyhhting else [img]smile.gif[/img] if money is tight try some nice used 16 inch 5spokes with tires included off ebay or even a nice set of eagle wheels can be found pretty cheap.

Nice car Sam! Where did you get the 3800 decal from?

[sac2165]

Looks pretty good, I'd make getting some new rims a high priority :cool:

[BLLDOGG]

what exhaust shop did you go to to have those tips welded on? they are too far down and look like they hang out. other than that, looks good

[SamG97Camaro]

I got the 3800 decal from www.reflectiveconvepts.com I did have the tips welded on..they had to cut some of the back off, n when they put the muffler on they angled the pipes down, so it was a pain to get the tips on

If I were you I would try to tweak the hanger for the muffler to get it to hang lower, then cut behind the tips. Then get a short peice of 3"ID and a couple clamps and either get those to be striaight, or angled a little up. They look like they are about to fall off.

Otherwise, Nice car.
