Hi everyone,
Just picked up a 2011 2SS/RS with silver stripes and black leather. Hurst short throw, Heritage grill and Eibach springs.

Sweet lookin' ride...

I'll be doing the Hurst shifter and Heritage grille myself when I finally get my hands on it.

About 4 weeks and counting...TPW 8/16

She's a beauty!! The heritage grill looks cool. Could you take a couple front angle shots to see it better? Thanks!

Thanks for the kind replies! I'll try to get a better pic of the front end to post (camera lens was fogging over due to humidity). Love the Hurst shifter, some increased effort to shift but feels great to me - it's either in or out with no slop. Feels like a heavy duty road race tranny with much less clutch effort

Sa-weet! Love the unbadged/stealth look of the heritage grill big time!

Interesting how IBM can look so different in varied light intensity. I def prefer the dark blue shades when there is no direct light but of course it looks good in every other kind as well.

SCAA did you put any tints on that or is it just the angle? If so what percent is it? Thanks.

Is that the factory short throw shifter or one you put in yourself? Love the white ball!

Penske Chevy installed the factory splash guards last night for me. I'm a big fan of splash guards to avoid chips as much as possible. IBM owners may already know this, but GM does not make them in IBM. Penske's team etched, primed and painted them in IBM for me. They did an awesome job... here are a few cell phone pics. I'll get some better quality shots posted.

BSX_Camaro · 08-04-2010, 10:50 AM

Tom, how much did they charge? I can take a run to the north side for this if its reasonable!

I rolled the costs into my original purchase. If I recall the splash guards were $150 and the painting was $100. I can double check my paperwork tonight, but that is pretty much inline. The install only took about 1 hour. Kent Boling in sales did an awesome job helping me upfront and with the painting team. Then Scott in service took care of the install. Very happy!

IMO, there's two schools on the splash guards those that hate them and those that love them. I'm pretty anal with my cars, so for the added security in avoiding or minimizing any chips the $250 was more than worth it. Plus outside of the functionality I think they actually look really good.

do you have a picture from further away from the car? i am still up in the air about the splash guards. i like the look without them, but the gill chips are starting to add up.
