Northwest 2014 Ash RS

So I had a 2005 STI before I joined the Camaro family. Loved the car, was a blast to drive. Unfortunately everything started to go out all at once and apparently wasn't as well taken care of as I was lead to believe, thus I decided it was time to have a new car. That way I knew for sure it was well taken care of and was truly mine. I know, it's a downgrade in the performance department, but with my commute and all I never got to drive it the way it was meant to. So I got the Camaro and am totally in love with it, amazingly enjoyable car to drive. I haven't done a whole lot, and can probably never compare to a lot of the cars on here, but Im slowly making it mine and hope some of you like what I've done...

Headrests and floor mats are awesome. I like the idea of the skyline of Seattle!!

Nice touches all 'round...

Did an LED swap, dome/trunk/license. Red for dome and trunk. Also tied in a couple LED strips behind the grille with the multi color I have in my footwells. I'll take a picture and video of that tonight.:thumbsup:

Helped a buddy dip the wheels on his truck. Decided to do my spoiler while we were at it. I think it looks pretty good actually.

Here's a better look at the interior and grille LEDs. They run on the same controller and can be any color I want. Including different modes, like 3 speed modes of color spectrum fade, flashing, and music response flashing. I'll upload videos of them in action shortly.

Hey nice car man, I'm around the Seattle area also. Dope head rests!

Where did you get your footwell and grill lights from and are they all wired up together or something? Nice work so far

It's actually a home accent kit I ran across at Lowe's one day. It looked cool because the led strips are protected in tubes which were ideal for the grille lights exposed to the elements. It's also modular so I was able to order longer strip with longer cords. I just cut the wall wart and rewired it the same as other diy footwell lights people have done. I double sided the controller inside the glove box next to my amp knob. I put two inside and two in the grille. And still have slots for two more strips if I find another place I want some lights

Best part of leaving work, aside from leaving work, is seeing a camaro waiting for you... :drool:
