  • Pics of my 1997 Cayenne Red Metallic Camaro (and caliper painting process)

    Well, I searched and weeded out my old pic threads, so now only my newest one exists on this board. I figured I'd take one last set of pics here as summer comes to a close, to show off what I did this summer.

    To the Pics!

          looking good. it has very clean look to it. if i were you id switch the rear fillins to black, but silver looks fine. Also, what would you say to maybe some all red 96 style taillights? and some clears up front?

            Where'd you get those mudflaps at? I want to get a set - they are doing lots of roadwork around here and I'm sick of washing tar off of my paint

              yeah definately get some clear corners for the front. they'll look great especially with the fog lights right there.

                I got them at my local GM dealer. I'm not sure why I was there, but they were hanging on the wall behind the counter. I bought them on an impulse. I think they were $10 a set.

                    That is one clean Camaro! That car looks great! I like the front blackouts, it looks like the Camaro has sunglasses on :cool: I like the decals on the back too. Nice car man! In fact I have the head on view picture as my desktop right now. Would you happen to have a higher resolution image of that picture?

                          Thought I'd bring this to the top for the heck of it. Get some more views.

                          Also, I picked up a set of Stripes for the car. But I haven't had the chance to get them on cuz my beater got totaled, so have to drive the camaro all the time again. When I buy a new beater the stripes will go on, if its not too cold.

                              Thanks! It seems to be a very rare color. I've only seen a few people on here with them. And I've never seen another camaro this color in person.
