Before you do Gray stripes take a look at the Silver..I have them on mine big difference. Great color our IMP cars look the best with chrome accessories. The only other choice I would have made was Black but there are way to many black ones. I also bought a manual and I am a kid all over again!

Thanks. The wheels are powder coated semi-gloss black. Went back and forth between this and matte black.

Cool pics and nice meeting you at Steve's place.

Glad to meet you as well. Looking at the side of your car gave me the guts to finally debadge the side. Lovin it. So clean.

Since IBM is on hold, I had my dealer search for one that was already made. He found one with silver stripes, but for me it just pops out to much. I like the cyber gray with how subtle it is. Either way, IBM is one hell of a nice color.

IBM Color is on hold? Anyone know why?

Rockin the BlueSS · 05-17-2011, 10:20 AM

the metallic parts in the paint are only made one place in the world... a plant in japan that was severely hit by the tsunami. a couple of the metallic colors are on hold for this. there was an article stating that the plant was back online in the last week or so, but i am not sure when they will catch up on orders.

Bluffen · 05-17-2011, 11:18 AM

Thanks for the info sir. It wouldnt bother me if Chevy stopped making the IBM anyway. It would make our camaros worth a little more

Rockin the BlueSS · 05-17-2011, 12:18 PM

true that!

BTW where in so cal are you? it would be cool to get some pictures together. you went blue and chrome on your car and i went blue and black on mine.

Took the blow dryer to my "SS" badge that I had installed upside down..Yes Upside down and they noticed it here. I only had it on for a YEAR before anyone noticed..

It's fixed now thought I would let you all know

Stingraye · 05-20-2011, 07:52 PM

Haha hey good deal glad to hear you got it flipped easy enough. I only noticed it cuz I'd been thinking about doing the same to mine and had been looking at different badges a lot. Did you see I finally got some on it? Decided to go with Cobalt SS badges with silver inlays.
