Honest Opinion Please!

OK heres the secret I was trying to hide in the shout box. lol. well im not sure if I want to do it or not b/c idk if it would look right so i need your honest opinion. I was planning to use GTA fender scoops in my fenders and custom mold them to look original. What do you think? heres a pic of the gta that inspired me to want to do this. heres a link to some scoops on ebay. i think this would be kinda cool and fairly cheap to do also.

If they were molded correctly I think it'd look good.

I have it done on my 91 RS and i wish I wouldnt have. It does not really flow well with the look of the camaro its much better on the birds! If you do not know how to weld I would not do it by yourself. The best way to do it would be to cut that section out of a set of trans am fenders and weld it into your camaro fenders that way they will sit flush like they are supposed too. You can cut a hole in your fenders and instal them that way (that is what I did) but they will stick out a bit (it also makes it easier for punk *** kids to steal the vents as i learned ) over all I would say dont do it but if you really wana i would have a shop weld the vent metal secions into your camaro fenders.

I'd like to see pics if you want to post them. For future ref.

I was going to have louvers in Mayhem's fenders but things didn't work out. The co. that used to sell the whole fender quit, and I couldn't find any louvers that had the right curve to work.
