Jon, on a car like that it could mean a lot to change the color. No matter how ugly you think it is, original is always the best when it comes to a car like yours. The new base clear systems actually make some of the old colors look better than they did when new....................RatPack...............

I have to agree with Rat Pak. I don't believe there is such a thing as a ugly colour when the new base clears are used. A good paint job makes all the difference in the world!

Paint it the correct color with a Killer Paint job and you will love it. Also write Camaro 25 times on a Chalkboard.
