There's something about clowns that scares me. So when I see this Camaro on huge wheels with a chromed grille and chameleon paint, I think of the Joker. Not the children's cartoon version, but the darker one that kills people. That kind of makes it the killer clown car.
Its color helps. The purple kind of reminds me of the Heath Ledger version and that scene where he makes the pencil "disappear." Of course, the green hair is another Joker trademark, ever since the 50s T
V show.

We don't know if that's the theme PC Customizing from Milwaukee wanted. It's probably just a coincidence, since flip colors are very attractive in the PlastiDip world right now. That's right; we could be looking at a reversible transformation, though we think it's unlikely considering the extent of the fifth-gen coupe's mods.

The car rides on 30-inch Forgiato Indierto-B wheels and features fully adjustable air suspension. Joker often talks about being a dog chasing a wheel. Well, there's a lot of wheel to chace in this scenario. Forgiato went the extra mile, in this case, also matching the color of the body on the rim and the inside edges of the spokes.

The not-so-subtle transformation is not as simple as it seems at first glance. The fenders have been widened at the back, and supercar-like air intakes added. The ZL1 replica hood is also a nice touch. Heck, this could be more expensive than a real ZL1.

Besides wheels, Forgiato's other major revenue stream are custom grilles. They have been doing this stuff for many years, but customers keep coming back to it.

We have to admit that while the color flip Camaro is weird, it's not such an outrage. Maybe it can even find itself a role as the next Joker car in Suicide Squad 2 or Batman v Mad Max. That would be something!
