Hi my name is Best and this is what some would call my wife Lindsey. I purchased her in January of 2012 while I was in Dijibouti Africa on a deployment. I came back to the states in Feb and drove home to Fl to pick her up. Heres the first morning with her and the last few seconds of her warranty life.

camaroRND2 02-29-2012 07:42 PM

thanks man i originally wanted IOM but the deal on this was too good and in the daylight IBM is really hard to beat. several colors on this car turned out amazing

MIT'13 03-01-2012 01:37 PM

i love the way IBM shines in the sunlight.
let us know how the upgraded suspension feels

camaroRND2 03-01-2012 06:45 PM

thanks man these cars are awesome in the sun. man its hard to say just like my first camaro when i did the suspension the car loses that slosh u around the car feel and now stays planted and doesnt roll so i know im going faster but it just doesnt feel like it anymore. ha but the fact that when i hit a hard corner and she stays flat i get this big grin going. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

matt@lsrperformance.com 03-02-2012 01:29 PM

Very nice my next mod is painting my tailight bezels black too. Were they a pain to take off?

camaroRND2 04-21-2012 11:06 AM

no not really i did break a tab though i would suggest push firmly on one tab while using hard plastic like stick thing or if ur good enough even a flat tip screw driver to pry between the bezel and the tail light. take ur time with the first one and then the rest are cake once u get the hang of it. goodluck man

kjkjr27 04-21-2012 01:56 PM

Thanks what did you use to paint them plasti dip or black spray paint?

camaroRND2 04-21-2012 02:20 PM

dupli-color engine enamel is the name low gloss black. i mainly used it cause the drability and the fact home depot is on the other side of town for me to get plastidip.

Yea same tons of lowe's around only one home depot 10 miles away. So I ended up buying satin black hopefully it will be like flat black we will see.

camaroRND2 04-21-2012 03:35 PM

u should be good i did about 4 coats and almost used the whole can but thats just me

aquablueL99 04-21-2012 04:36 PM

camaroRND2, Been a while...the Camaro is looking soooo nice. I was not much on painting the bezels on the tail lights.....until I saw yours. What a difference they make on IBM....She looks sweet!!....:chevy:

Oh yeah.....That spoiler looks killer too....Nicely done.....ABL99

camaroRND2 04-21-2012 05:28 PM

thanks yeh im hoping to have the spoiler on tomorrow and stripes on it later next week

camaroRND2 04-22-2012 10:57 AM

woke up early today listening to Josh Garrels music and singing while changing the spoiler so people in my appt complex were probally freaked out but who cares i was having a blast. ps i destroyed that fork.

kjkjr27 04-22-2012 01:14 PM

Very nice all you gotta do now is get some stripes on that new spoiler :thumbsup:

camaroRND2 04-22-2012 01:17 PM

yep im actually alittle torn right now cause it actually looks good in person without the stripes i just need the car to sound and move like it looks now. stock exhaust and intake are way to quiet just a couple of more days and the mods for the year will be done and i can build my wallet back up
