What to get someone for Christmas? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

EricH · 11-23-2010, 04:32 PM

A family member bought a 2SS this year and I thought maybe the forum members here might have an idea on something to get them for Christmas.

I already turned them onto Zaino products unfortunately so they already have everything they need for paint and leather care.

I guess I am looking at something around $100 or less. Anything come to mind? Something specific to the car that would be nice?

I appreciate any help.

floor board liners, either weathertech or Husky. if you buy some mods for yourself you should be able to get some kind of discount from autoanything, usually about 10-15 percent if you search around the net for a promo code. ten percent off would get em under 100 with free shipping.

Gasoline gift card, GM garage gift card, mud flaps, bus pass, Winter wiper blades, Camaro hat, Camaro forum tee shirt-decals

car parts are very tough, most of us are very particular about our cars, and we all have a different sense of style.

for under 100$, I would recommend various vinyl pieces... v-flag fender emblems.. clear front sidemarkers.. license plate frames..

100$ is a tough price point for an expensive car!

A card is worth 100 words.

I agree on a GM gift card. Or cash is always the greatest gift. Make them a card saying "Camaro Mod Fund" then have the money in their, that way you dont end up purchasing something they wont use, us camaro guys are picky.

Side marker lights are a good idea. I did that to my G and he really liked it (completely forgot).

Anyone know where to get smoked ones besides ebay? Are both the front and rear available?

Floor board liners are a good idea as well. What would the GM giftcard be used for?

I know he doesn't want to do anything much in the line of performance mods because of the warranty.

Thanks for the great ideas so far!

A trip to the detail shop would be a nice gift, itunes if they have an ipod, for some good cruising music. Sill guards, meybe a jockeybox light kit, but all with gift receipts so they can go get something else if they're less than excited about what you got them.

couldn't wait to see if anyone would get me the liners, broke down and just bought a set of huskies for 95 and change from autoanything.com, promo code WEPP78L3NMB, saves you 10 bucks if interested. you get both front row and backs for that price. Good deal IMO, what color is the SS your frind has? if the interior is grey or black then the black should work for most people. good luck :o)

Hit up www.camarocollection.com They have tons of stuff. Also some nice Camaro5 gear would be cool to.
