Shunt is an inside joke in the Camaro5 community. There was a picture of the interior of one of the IVER Camaros (prototype) and there was a sign on the dashboard that read "Shunt in trunk" or somethnig to that effect (someone feel free to find the picture). Then other pictures showed up with a string/rope coming out of the trunk and the stories and jokes began to fly. As for IOM...Inferno Orange Metallic..just like SOM stands for Sunset Orange Metallic...a color that's found on a handful of 4th Gen Camaros

People "tag" usually when they also want to know about the topic.
