A standard? I don't know about all of that. But I appreciate the complement.

Well I picked these up this weekend from the local dealership.



ZL1 rear splash guards. Hopefully they'll help with all the spray I get all over the rear from what I'm assuming is due to the wider tires. Gonna try to do them sometime this week before I go on leave for Xmas.

After that I plan on removing the "CAMARO" from the fender and shooting the tail lightt bezels victory red to match. Then it's slotted rotors and braided lines and maybe some powder coated calipers. Time will tell.

Taking the CAMARO off is simple, some dental floss and mineral spirits. I'd paint the bezels black, it'll tie in with your spoiler. I've seen them red before & prefer them black. It's a good contrast. Just my 2 cents. You can get the rotors from Grantelli for pretty cheap. I did my calipers with the g2 paint and have no bitches with the way they came out.
Keep it up man, looking good!

Thanks for the info! What I'm worried about was the CAMARO leaving residue on the fender. And I'll check out that caliper paint.

It's holding up. The only issue is when it starts getting beat up and cracked. Otherwise I love it.

Finally got around to I stalling my ZL1 splash guards. Suuuuuper easy to install but very functional and they don't stand out which is really what I was going for.

Yeah i am, this car is my daily driver and i have to be around all sorts of inconsiderate people. Scratches, scuffs, and dings annoy me tremendously so i knew that white was the only way to go. I'm look at the TSWs or some ZL1 replicas. I was going to get those stripes on the fenders and blackout my spoiler (was going to blackout my hood until i realized the 1LE package was coming out) and of course lower it. I already blacked out my rims and did the black-out for the lights.
