Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum as until recently I was driving a 1996 Neon, and what's worse. a riced one. Let me just say that unlike many ricers, I would admit that my car was a total P.O.S. Anyway, a few days ago, I won a 1997 Camaro 3.8L off of eBayMotors, cobalt blue with 51k miles in perfect condition for $5700. I'm going to pick it up tomorrow I believe, I just wanted to know what you guys think of it.
If anyone has any recommendations for mods, feel free...I'm thinking of putting leather seats and a CAI in it sometime soon, and would a red or silver CAMARO windshield decal be tacky?
You'll find that the prevailing preference on this site is towards a very clean look...meaning that no one is going to say they think a windshield banner would be a good thing to get. Everyone already knows what that car is anyway...it's a Camaro dude!
Yeah I'll clean up the engine bay as soon as I get it...and I think I'll either lower it or get ground effects for it in the near future. Also, do you think tinting the front windows to match the hatch would be a good idea and if so, what %? I'm dropping my Kicker L7's in there as well, and I'll prolly take out the Audiobahns.
I don't think I'm going to do serious enough mods to need racing seats (although I know they look cool), so for now I'll stick with leather for comfort and looks...either will be way better than the cloth ones in there now. :)
Cobalt blue is a sweet color. Lose the red bowties and the red brakes they don't go with the blue at all. I hate when people paint drum brakes...
unless they are black :). then they stay hidden quite well....or you could just make a disc conversion.
thats a nice camaro. you can tell it needs some work though. i agree with losing the red accents, go with either white, silver, black, or even try a deep/dark blue. i think that white accents on that blue look bad a**. but i bet a darker blue would compliment it nice as well. keep us posted!

how dark is that window tint? can you see the amp or subs through it?
i'm going to need to protect my investment pretty soon:) but my mom doesn't want it dark:mad:
Thanks everyone for your comments...hmm, I didn't think the red accenting was too horrible but your right: black, white, or silver would look pretty slick. The pickup's actually been delayed a day, so it's not in my possession yet.
However, I won an auction for a full set of leather seats off a 98 Camaro on eBay for under 220 bucks, which struck me as quite a good deal, especially as I can pick them up. The only problem is that I was looking for black and these are dark tan...do you think they'll look alright or should I look into dyeing them? I guess I'll know once I get them, but feel free to throw your two cents in...thanks again. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1

I'll let you know tomorrow when I get it; the tint on my Neon was 5% and while you would have a great deal of trouble seeing into the car, I never thought it took too much away from visibility....heh, well maybe a bit at night.
my suggestions are to lose the red accents, definately put a CIA in it, and maybe a disc brake conversion, o and rims and tires
remember to get new leather peices for the door panels if you put leather seats in.
K&N air filter, Whisper air lid, magnaflow LT1 cat back, and magnaflow high flow cat, pacesetter headers, silverstars<br /><br />more to come soon<br />but for now im out of money
Haven’t done anything on the Camaro, but put LEDs on my truck headlights . And my oil pressure sensor went out on the truck so going to fix that this...
