Starsky Build Thread!
 
Never thought I would be doing a build thread for my Camaro. I bought Starsky in January 3, 2012. I drove a 2008 Silverado that was pretty badass.

Now I have moved on to the car scene! Still a Chevrolet guy, got the itch and wanted a car and bought a 2012 SIM.
I bought her when I was 20 years old. This is a picture from the night I picked her up!

This is the first trip I took Starsky up Glendora Mtn Road

Just picked Starsky up from Marks Audio Video January 11, 2013

Was going to get the JL-Audio Stealthbox but they were not in the office so my friend at MAV (Marks Audio Video) decided to have his guys build me a custom box! Turned out amazing!

We also put the newest Alpine head unit INE-W927HD, as well as the Scosche Dash Kit.

Looks good so far my gf nags all the time but ohh well she also hates that I've spent more than a new car in parts.

Ya this guy was trying to get me to buy the Metra kit, it just looks like such less quality. The Scosche kit looks factory, like Chevy should have made the car with this kit! I love it......I can not give enough credit to my boys at Marks Audio Video, Irwindale California!

So I have not done any modding to my baby for a few months, basically all summer. I am now feeling the urge to do something that will make me fall back into love with Starsky! I love her, but you all know the feeling you get once you do something new to your car! Every time you get into it you look at it or listen for it more and more! Well I want that feeling again!! So if anyone wants to share what I should do next, please post your suggestions!!
