Accessorizing Your Camaro - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Well, until five years go by (at which time the manufacture's warranty expires) I don't plan on doing any mods to my new Camaro. I would like to accessorize it a bit though, but haven't found anything that I like yet. I stopped at three auto-parts stores today to get paint for my old pickup truck, and to get some microfiber clothes to clean my Camaro with. All the accessories they sell though seem like budget "bling" garbage for people with ricers or no true pride in their vehicles, so I gave everything a pass today. I remember eight years ago they used to carry Camaro branded floor mats and such, but saw none of that stuff today. Not even any Chevrolet stuff, just junk with cartoon characters or wild, eastern art inspired trash.

Are there any online shops that sell quality Camaro accessories? I'd like to get some seat covers that are actually made for a Camaro, and some floor mats that don't look like overpriced junk for my new ride. It's one of the best cars around, so it deserves some quality stuff. I also would like to find some sun shades for the windshield to protect my dash from sun damage. All I saw was junk that looked like tin foil. I prefer the type that have a springy wire frame, fold up small but spring out when you need to use them.

Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks guys.

The Lyods Mats are really nice. You can find a bunch of nice stuff here. www.camarocollection.com You might find some stuff cheaper elsewhere but at least you'll see some stuff you might like.

There's a lot you can do to your car to increase looks or performance and not void the warranty.

LoneCynic · 08-06-2010, 04:12 PM

I'll check the sponsor section, thanks. Those Lyod matts are nice, but a good deal more than I'd like to spend. I want something that is a step above the run of the mill cheapo ricer stuff, but not going to break the bank. I'm willing to spend a little bit more than basic, but not a whole lot more. In other words, I'm trying to accessorize the LS, not the SS!

I'll start with the sponsor section as suggested though in terms of finding stuff. Now, does anyone have accessory suggestions based on what they bought for their Camaros? I'm definitely open to suggestions.
