You were thinking "damn that's the best looking camaro I've ever seen!"

And you were thinking right!


I feel for you. I only wash every 2-4 weeks, and it gets dirty. But I'll be damned if it doesn't still look like a nice car, even if it's dirty!!!!

Gospel.

I wash when I can, enjoy the looks of disdain when I can't.
Screw it. I consider the dirt a protective layer for my finish.

My question is should I put them in the same location as on the 45th edition or maybe use one on the custom painted engine cover I will be doing and one on the dashboard?
any other suggestions?

You can always put one on the opposite side of the RS/SS on the trunk.

I don't want to sound like a hater but I don't agree with this " "up-badging". I guess its because Im proud of having my 45th an find it distasteful when someone fakes things. It's like a ls with SS/RS badges. A serious fake

lol. I agree about trying to make it something its not, but I'm pretty sure nobody's going to mistake a victory red for an anniversary edition. It is still a 2012 and was made during the year of Camaro's 45th Anniversary. I would say adding it to the car would distinguish it as a 2012. Idk. just my opinion.

I don't thinks it's "upbadging". his 2012 is every bit made during the 45th anniversary year of the camaro as yours is. he's not putting ss badges on a v6. or zl1 badges on an ss. to me the 45th badges are nothing more than the ls3/l99 badges people put on their cars... 312hp badges. and such. the car doesn't have any special gearing or anything than the rest. heck id say the complete opposite since the 45th was actually cheaper than others on the lot... they're just commemorating badges. hell, once I get enough scratches,knicks, chips and damage to mine I FULLY plan on having the car painted some metallic white. with the 45th stripes and badges. nothing close to original. relax. It's not a big deal what others do to their cars. he's not claiming his car is anything more than what it is. a 2012 camaro.

Oh well you guys will love this then:




Personally, I don't like it at all. Just not my thing.


Saw it at Fbody this year.

don't like it but not because of the badges. stripes are missing the 45th on it. but i don't like lambo doors or the reversed hood. not my thing. least not on a camaro.

If he spent all that money on performance he would have a ten second car.
