Demon Bu1LT's thread
 

I have put it off and put it off but finally started my build thread. I fell in love with the Camaro in 1995. When GM brought it back I thought it was awesome but didn't think I'd ever be able to own one. In 2011 my entire life came to a grinding halt with three heart surgeries. I felt like I was going through hell at that time. In 2012 I was medically cleared and allowed to escape hell. I came upon Demon Bu1LT at that time and decided why not partner up with him. I came into this with very little about cars and modifications. I discovered camaro5 which has been an invaluable source to me. I found The Camaros of East Texas club through this site as well, great people and great times.

I didn't take many pictures in the beginning but I have since made sure to take plenty. So with out any further delay...I give you Demon Bu1LT.

2012 1LT Non-RS

Glad to hear you survived your ordeal and were able to bounce back and get the car you fell in love with. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for it.

Good opportunity for a pic with the skyline.

Thank you for the kind words! I plan on uploading quite a few photos tonight, or at least that is the plan.

Just noticed I butchered my original quote (now corrected). Ha ha. Sorry about that! Look forward to seeing more pictures man. :coolpics:

After a ton of reading my first mod was plastidipping the wheels, bowties, badges, and taillight bezels. I know some people hate plasti dip but it has allowed me to see if I like the way something looks before permanently doing it.

:w00t:

After my first venture into plasti dip I decided to do my fuel door and spoiler. Like I've said before, when I started modding I didn't know a lot and was timid on taking my car apart. This is why I did my spoiler in the most difficult way possible. If I could go back in time and show myself how easy it could have been....:smm7:

The mod bug had sunk it's teeth into me now and it wasn't letting go. I got my first performance mod, CAI intake, and actually installed it myself. A huge feat for a guy that hasn't really turned a wrench under a hood before. I cleaned the engine bay when I was done. OCD engage!!!

Got rid of the suitcases underneath and added the SLP Loudmouth 1 axleback. It's nice to have buddies with a lift!!

After reading every striping thread on the forum, there is a crap ton, I loved the NS1 stripes. I used them for inspiration but changed a few things. The stripes on the roof, I widened a little and gave a slightly tapered look. I also carried the hash marks a little further back on the fenders and extended them lower a bit. Brace yourself for a photo storm!

I reapplied plasti dip to the taillight bezels and painted the engine cover and fuse box cover.

Had the chance to pick up the strut brace for a great price. Dipped it and put it on. I like the look it adds to the engine bay.

Had some of the engine bay hydrodipped. I liked the design at first but now not so much. Will be switching it up soon.
