Daytime Running lights Upgrade

I installed my Oracle P13W Plasma LED Bulbs this weekend. I didn't know to order the DRL adapter so I just made my own.
My writeup on the install is here -

Added a Radio face clear cover. PITA to put on without bubbles underneath.

Custom JacFab Driveshaft Tunnel Brace

http://camarorocket.blogspot.com/

I ordered this about a month ago and have finally found the time to put it on. I guess it was too much of a novelty to have it customized even if no one but me ever sees it. Installation was a easy - raise the car, 4 bolts on, remove brace and bolt on the new one. I need to order some more spacers though becasue my Flowmasters hang a little lower than the stock pipes. But a couple of washers will work for now until I order some more.

That will work just like a hidden VIN in the event that your car is ever stolen. You can just tell the police what to look for.

added wheel Locks

A co worker warned me that her wheels were jacked. So I decide to protect my investment with some wheel locks.

New Tires

I made it to a little over 36000 miles before I changed the wheels. I had the spare sitting in the attic for a while after buying them from a Camaro 5 member in 2010. They had almost no miles on them and I bought them for about $100 each.

Here are some photos of why you should rotate them more often. Plus laying off the burnouts when you can.

Plastic dipped the Drag radials rims

3 coats of plastic dip and they look great. Friday - I'll strap them to the back and hold.
