If you're looking for something to do with appearance, I would either go with new wheels, or maybe some stripes on the side. Now if you were talking more on performance, I would say headers and exhaust. Just my .02 cents.

Congrats btw on the new camaro! I just bought mine a week ago and I'm loving every bit of it! Beautiful car

CAI, Exhaust, Headers, debadge, spoiler, wheels.

Not in that order. Just depends on what you want. Good thing is you have a ton of options.

+1 to this!

Pamper your new baby!

The "to do" list is getting mighty long for me... I put on Borla's Axle back over the weekend and will be tinting the windows this coming Friday.

Next, I think I will order some matte black vinyl and black out the bowties.

I have to remember to just drive it and enjoy every now and then.

Blackout bowties and bezels and cutoff your mufflers or add an exhaust system.

Congratulations on the new car. I've had mine a year last week and the feeling does not get old.

I went with a magnaflow catback with an x-pipe and I love it! There is no drone and it is very calm when you are just crusing. *****Random question now: I'm new to this site... How do I add a profile pic to my posts?? Thanks!!!
