IOM Bumble Bee Updates - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Tribute · 12-01-2011, 03:51 PM

Hi All - I just wanted to share some updates.

Added the following...

-SLP LMII Exhaust

-Blackout Bowties

-IOM Quarter Flares

-SLP Front Lip

-Deleted or debagded the SS badges.

-Oh, and Zaino'd the car for a nice deep color and shine. Used Z-AIO and Z-CS.

The car seems to be coming together and the subtle changes really help tie in the Bumble Bee stripes.

Very nice!!

Atlas · 12-01-2011, 04:24 PM

Looking good! Do an LS7 front grill area blackout maybe? Darker wheels would definitely tie it together also. Great job!

whamslam3 · 12-01-2011, 05:35 PM

thats good now all u need is the front back black out and some black wheels

Tribute · 12-01-2011, 05:57 PM

Atlas- which front blackout are you referring to? Like yours? How did u do it?

Thanks!

You could also black out the lower valence like I did, after the TF2 Camaro. That would look nice as well! Mine was done by a local vinyl shop.

Ah, gotcha. Yes, I like this. Looks very cool. Thanks for the visual.

khislop007 · 12-01-2011, 08:32 PM

Looks good. I love the slp splitter.

jcamp2914 · 12-01-2011, 08:59 PM

Where did you get your stripes?

Tribute · 12-01-2011, 09:08 PM

I got the stripes through Patrick @ gmpartshouse. They are the 2012 oem bumblebee stripes.

Gene Culley · 12-01-2011, 10:15 PM

Looks great! Thank you for your business and we'd be happy to help anyone else out with them.

2010 SSRS · 12-01-2011, 11:36 PM

wow, looks absolutely awesome, I would keep the wheels the way they are, looks so much better than black wheels.

Tribute · 12-02-2011, 08:17 AM

Thanks All - Yeah, I'm liking the contrast of the stock wheels. If I were to go darker I think just a gun metal, not full black.

It's funny. I have the front blackout piece and wasn't sure exactly where it went. (duh). Thanks all, i'm going to try to add that on today since the weather should be decent.

I also have the SLP faded gill inlay vinyl. Going to try to add that too.

Ok, So I had some time today and the weather was nice... So I was able to add the following.

-OEM BumbleBee Front black out
-SLP Faded Gills
-AutoBot Center Caps

Seems to be coming along nicely. The front blackout was tricky.
