Not long after I added the red SS emblems to my fenders, I decided I wanted to go with a "clean look." That is when I decided to remove the red SS emblems, the CAMARO letters, and the GM chicklets. I still have the chicklets and plan to sell them on Pawn Stars someday for $1000 a piece.
Debadged - Nice and clean! http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=59841 I installed my oil catch can on March 13, 2011. For those in doubt, yes it does work and yes you need it. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71391 Then I saw the emblems from Sparks Restorations. I knew I had to have them and replace those bowties :respekt: I did have the holes behind mine... http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/1745/trunkss1.jpg http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71376 Then I added a painted heritage grill and added the Sparks SS emblem. I also bought the Street Scene lower billet grill. They go great together! http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=60428 Stay tuned...more to come :w00t: |
Once you get that thing lowered you'll be amazed how much it changes. :headbang:

your Camaro looks awesome, very nice wheels

Here is a pic of my billet SS speaker rings...
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71375 In my quest to achieve an even "cleaner" look, I decided to order painted foglight and tail light bezels. I also had Becky paint my smoothlock IOM :headbang: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=69156 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71377 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71372 Although I wanted the smooth clean look on the exterior, I decided to dress up my trunk area. I bought many chrome pieces for that. Those pieces include... Chrome SS trunk pull Chrome trunk deck spring covers Chrome trunk shock rod covers Chrome trunk deck latch cover Chrome trunk deck side covers Chrome trunk corner panels http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71371 Then I decided it was time to add some bass :cool: I ordered a package from ******** which included a dual 12" box with Kicker subs, Hifonics 1500W monoblock amp, and sub grilles. I decided to go with a front fire box. I had the sub grilles painted IOM :headbang: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=69925 |

Looks good SMOKE!

Then it was time for some new shoes. I love the look of the Havocs but the main reason I chose them is they are a perfect fit for the OEM tires. They are also easy on the wallet. I went back and forth on whether to get chrome or black chrome. In the end, I chose chrome.
http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=59829 My plan is after this chrome runs its course, to have them powder coated black. I have a long time before that happens though :thumbsup: Here is a pic of my Fesler shift boot. I didnt order it to make people "think" I own a manual. I got it because it looks better than the cheap piece of plastic that the L99 has. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=59879 August 17, 2011 :headbang: http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/1083/81711.jpg Here is a pic of my IOM dipstick. Looks much better than the OEM yellow :barf: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=64754 Now for some lighting changes. I ordered several things from AAC which included the amber dome light, amber trunk light, license plate LED's, and the P13W LED DRL bulbs. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=65816 I also ordered the AAC painted concept side markers :headbang: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71373 |

I received my SCTX3 tuner from Ted on August 4, 2011.
I really didnt have any HP mods at the time but the AFM was driving me crazy :mad0259: I received my ported throttle body from Ted on November 25, 2011 FYI this is where I am every August :headbang: For those that dont know, thats Bristol baby! http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/7263/bristol.jpg |

Then I decided to get my calipers powder coated.
They turned out awesome and look fantastic. Thanks Mike :thumbsup: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=71447 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=73461 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=73460 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=73571 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=73462 http://www.camaro5.com/forums/pictur...ictureid=73572 |
