I actually love the Xenon kit. Doesnt look ricey. Great choice. Plus, you're gonna chip it anyways so why by a new one. Good thinking.

You will eventually scrape somewhere. Youre going to have to repaint it anyway... Or are you leaving it that color?

How much do you plan on spending... this will go right up in the hundreds... It was just listed, so on Dec 15th, watch it go through the roof.

Yeah what paar said. And yes, you will scrape. I used to shed a tear each time I scraped, but got used to it. Gotta perfect the sideways entrance over bumps, driveways, etc.

haha yeah its nice when you smoke a bump in the road and everyone stares at you like your car just broke in half.

The only scraping that still bothers me is my exhaust... I really dont care about the front bumper anymore... whos gonna look underneath but me anyway?

Same here. I already scraped too much that it doesnt look round from the bottom anymore. Looks like its a 9/10th of a moon lol. I'm thinking of getting z28 tips. only time will tell.

Looks good.. I love gfx but I there isnt a front end out there that I love!.. So for my Z ill stay away from gfx..

But Paar is right, this is gonna go up.. And word of advise for the future.. Don't post on a Camaro site on what you just bid on.. Wait till you win it.. Someone on here could also want that kit and pay more for it..

i think you might be smart just to buy it. really those kits do cost quite a bit unless you get an amazing deal like paar (which you can't) so if i were you stop bidding and buy!
