Suppose you’re thinking that the upcoming Camaro needs more pizzazz: Maybe a ground effects package, larger wheels, a spoiler or even a new grille. Don’t get ahead of yourself just yet, there’s still a good deal of time before the Camaro hits dealerships in early 2009. But when it does finally arrive, General Motors’ accessories division is going to have all those extras for the Camaro.
Larry Sully, Global Accessories Design manager, gives us a peek at the development Camaro the company is using to design those parts in the GM Next video below; at the 2:24 minute mark, there’s even a quick view of the prototype rear body kit. We’re especially curious what the accessory grille and spoiler will look like. You can spot the basic shape of the spoiler, as there’s a cloth draped over it, and it looks huge.
