I do have a way that you can carry bikes with your 2010 Chevy Camaro SS with ground effects but there are no trailer hitches that will fit the vehicle.

What you can do is use a trunk mount bike carrier such as the Hollywood Racks Over-The-Top # HRF2 for 2 bikes. The bottom straps will probably have to connect somewhere on the frame of the vehicle though.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have to use these adapters and without them my wife's bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my son's bike at all. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
