My 2011 Camaro SS Transformers Edition

So about a month ago I purchased a 2011 Camaro SS transformers edition. The car only had 4,500 miles on it and the guy had already put on a few interior modifications such as the head rests, center console, and transformers door still plates.

I recently changed out the hood cover, added a CAI cold air intake, and got this customized hoodliner by Corrado, I also changed out the rim caps to the autobots ones:

Next I plan to:

- Have interior trim painted yellow
- Add in Yellow SS2 Interior Trim Kit
- Change Cloth Seats To Camaro Leather Seat Kit, Black w Sunrise Wings
- Exhaust
- Maybe have a trunk liner painted...

I'm sorry to burst your bubble but actual Transformer editions were only made in 2010 and 2012, not 2011. Looks like the previous owner bought 2SS headrests (cause they're leather and your seats are cloth) from GM parts with a transformer vin #. Also the door sills and center console.

Sorry i have to agree with this. Also to add to the fact a TF edition was only available as either a 2LT or 2SS. So the seats would have to be leather. And i have to say why put a K&N Sticker on a car without a K&N intake In fact it has a much nicer intake than a K&N

I do have to say that the car does look awesome

Agreed. That is NOT a Transformers Edition, if anything it's a clone. It's still a great car, though.

Yep, I did know it was a clone. I do plan to address the seats issue, so they are leather just like the head rests, already added the center caps to the rims with the autobots logo.

You guys are also right about the K&N. Apparently the guy had a K&N air filter in the standard air intake before I added the CAI cold air intake, I need to get that sticker removed.

I'll keep the mods coming.

No New Modes

No new mods, but I just recently did an Adam's make over. I used Adam's Machine Super Sealant, Adam's Brilliant Glaze, Adam's Americana Premium Paste Wax.
