Bajamoon's slow build
So got bored this weekend and said screw it I'll make a build thread. More of a place to
than anything I guess. Bought the car in April of 2011 from Camino Real Chevy. Never even sat in a Camaro before I signed the papers. Fell in love with it the moment I saw it. Here are a few pics and I'll take more later. My wife and I the day we picked her up Joined Camaro5 3/11 for research Bought the Camaro 4/11 Current mods Pfadt lowering springs- gone thank god Pfadt sway bars-rear replaced with a zl1 sway bar ZL1 lower control arms Pedders Radius bush-stage 3 BMR strut brace GM IOM interior panels 2SS/RS ABL lighting-Thanks Ofer Painted Brembo Calipers 2SS/RS Clutch resi-Thanks Ofer Roto fab Radiator cover K & N intake-powder coated black Billet customs IOM caps Magnaflow exhaust MNP customs front and rear blackouts Center console and speedo bezel color matched by Camino Real Chevy RX catch can and breather Corvette LS3 engine covers- waiting to go on Drake fuse box cover, master cylinder cover RX tensioner pulley painted IOM Pedders Springs ACS TL-1 hood insert 2013 rear view mirror Soon to be added Pedders Cradle inserts Last edited by bajamoon; 01-07-2013 at 09:43 PM. |

Some interior work. GM Inferno orange panels and had Camino Real paint my console top and spedo bezel to color match. Working on painting the main center console gloss black and taking the texture out. Pain in the ass but will be worth it.
Also installed the MGW shifter ball. It slips right over the stock shifter. |

Looks sweet bro, i wonder which strut tower brace fits over my Supercharger? Also if a radiator shroud would come close to fitting with a CAI instead of Rotofab?

Member car journal advice 101, make sure all your pictures are a max width of 800 px, that way all your photos look perfect inside your journal without having to scroll outside to the right, Lol...

The rad shroud works with them all from what I have found looking around here. And as far as I know the Hotchkis brace is the only one that fits over the supercharger.
