2013 1LT Thin Blue Line (Police Tribute) build thread!
Hey guys! Back in December my parents had brought me down to a dealership and we went car shopping so I can have a car for when I start driving! Since I wasn't old enough to drive my dad and mom test drove it and they were worried about blind spots and it being impractical for my first car. Well, I told them that I really liked the car and I promised I would drive safe and be really careful. After some consideration they said yes and I had a BRAND NEW CAMARO! [ATTACH][/ATTACH] I was ecstatic! I remember walking out of the dealership with my mom and dad to a brand new camaro! I did my "happy dance" and I didn't realize the dealership had clear windows so all of their staff saw how happy I was to have the car. I admit it was a little embarrassing. But when I got in he car I got my first Perma-grin! I was just thinking to myself that I am so blessed to get an oppurtunity like this! After that we drove home and as soon as everybody got out of the car I jumped behind the steering wheel and just sat there. (perma-grinning of course) I just couldn't describe the feeling I had about it, probably best described like this! I was just so happy! you guys know the feeling! Now after a few months past while I was still over the car, I got bit by this strange bug. The mod bug... I figured since I can't drive it I might as well make it look even more awesome so when I drive it, it will be more than just a car. It will have a meaning to it. It will resemble me and what I stand for so, I named it The Thin Blue Line. Now thats a long name but it has a meaning to it. Due to my families history in Law Enforcement, thats what I wanted the theme of my car to be. So me and my dad went down to autozone today and got some things for the car. The first thing I wanted to do was paint the brake calipers so we painted those blue, heres a picture of before and after: Then we decided to paint the engine cover, first we taped it all off and then painted it and let it dry! I am getting blue bezels for the inside and eventually going to upgrade to some custom pin striping along the side and get the grey vinyl stripes off of it. I am so glad to be apart of this wonderful community! There is more to come! Like this:
here is the new mod along with some other things! Got the LED Glow advanced 7 million color underbody and wheel well kit, I got it programmed but not in this video! I will post more videos to this thread! I have already gotten tons of complements. A group of girls walked by it and said "WOW, I'm just waiting for it to transform!" and a mustang parked next to it and walked around and looked it over! I have to say this gets peoples attention! I love it, I got it to flash like police lights BUT I will only be using that when at car shows etc. so it go's with the theme of the car! Grille lighting just tops it off too! -AmericanMuscleCars Last edited by AmericanMuscleCars; 05-10-2013 at 11:07 PM. |
