I got the driver side done yesterday, I'm using the torch method and they come out pretty easy. But putting the new ones in.... It's being difficult... Then I still have the diff bushings to install, not sure if I will do those this weekend or not...

Sweet work bro. Nice. Not for the novice at all. LOL

Exhaust hitting those pesky studs that stick out and allow the heat shields to bolt up to?

lets do this thing! I'm pretty psyched to get this done, so i can slap on these:

17x10 & 17x5s wrapped in 325/45 M&H... what...

I haven't changed any part out yet, because I haven't had any issues but the code on start up 2x in around a 5 month time span. I'm leaning towards ordering a new PCM and then having the dealer reprogram it then head on over to you Ivan to have the tune reloaded. I'm gonna drive it around the rest of the week and I'll see if the code comes back tho....

Yea it's been dead in here lately. Maybe when the 6th gen comes out the ABQ Camaro crowd will pick back up....
