So yea basically he looked mint already, love him. First thing i noticed was no engine cover, so bought me one of them to make the engine bay look abit more tidy

So basically that was it for a while, My mates loved it (Not many american muscle cars over here especially not Camaros) Then my mate asked reckon you will do anything to it? At first i thought no need, but then that was it, curiously i looked on the web at other camaro's and that was it my brain went mental at all the amazing camaro's out there.

Now next what i did may not be a very popular move with everyone here, but everyone has there own likes and dislikes. My mate said, you should look to see if you can get Vertical doors for it, make it look more like it is transforming. I thought to myself MY GOD why did i not think of that?? Checked the web and to my delight they did kits for camaros, so i ordered it. 1 Month later it arrived (Shipping and UK like of taxing things)

Here he is looking rather sorry for himself, wondering what he had let himself in for. One door attached.

A week later he was at (Fast Show) UK car show held at Santa Pod Raceway(Drag Strip) Getting some attention for his troubles

He also had a personal licence plate bought for him TF02 BEE, (Transforms 2 Bee) ;)

And that was it for almost 5 months, But looking at the web polloutes the mind with idea's and wants :D

So next i Bought a front Splitter and a larger spoiler, give him a bigger sting in his tail :D

So i originally had the spoiler black, to break up the yellow, however i was not happy with the job done on the spoiler and changed my mind as you will see later

These was taken at the last Official UK car Show of the year "Trax" Silverstone Raceway.

Next on my list was New wheels. I ordered some Custom Built and Painted ISS Forged Complex 5 22"

Now, i noticed that my front bumper had quite a few stone chips :mad0259: so i went to a recommnded spray shop near me. I asked if they could respray the front and rear bumper, and also a few other jobs ;) which included: Calipers sprayed black, Brembo sprayed in yellow, Rear Diffuser a shiny black, rear light surrounds black, spoiler yellow with the racing stripes on, CAI gold and also a bit of damaged corrected on both side skirts.

So here it goes

Rear light surrounds, Front and rear Bumpers

Rear diffuser, with side skirts in reflection :D

Brakes Cleaned and sanded down

Primered

Finished article

Next the spoiler

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...ebee/rears.jpg

The Paint guy has some amazing skills, The racing stripes on the spoiler part is not vinyl but actually sprayed, matching the lines exactly right.

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...45464339_n.jpg

Here the Bumper, diffuser and spoiler is all back together, Cannot really see how shiny the diffuser is

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...24479979_n.jpg

And now the CAI pipe in gold

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...bee/engine.jpg

I have also hadded abit of vinyl wrap to the inside

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/.../interior2.jpg

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...e/interal2.jpg

And that is as far as i have got, looking to colour code the inside some more, and do some bits to the engine. Also plan to get a new grill and possibly more aggressive side skirts, Will keep this updated

Wow that's a great start! Congrats. :thumbsup:

Bee looks absolutely awesome

Sick ride man love the transformation , looks great keepem cominn.

Nice man, looks awesome :thumbup:! You might wanna get these to finish up the look http://www.ebay.com/itm/BEE-OTCH-AIR...item2ec2e2d3f5 :D.

No way been looking for them for ages :D lol the shipping to the UK on the other hand might make it abit silly tho :P

looks great!, but i dont know if the car is gonna like driving on the wrong side of the road.:)

love the wheels

Its got used to it :D nothing normally gets in its way over here larger than most cars on the UK road.

Wow,I'd love to see a Camaro on the streets in the U.K! Must be a sight :)

Mate! Not sure how your dealing with petrol prices! I have an Audi A4 back in London and it drives me NUTS filling up every few days cus I'm used to paying nearly nothing for petrol since I've been in the Middle East!! :D

It aint to bad, i only drive it like once a week, thankfully i live 30 seconds from where i work, so it only goes to car shows and a sunday drive :D only put £20 in seems to get from quarter tnak to half and that will last a good while

Couple more pieces that i have done to it

Bit more colour coding on the inside, Centre console, side panels by the air con blowers, the thread around everything is now yellow

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...pse671071a.jpg

The Front bowtie is now vinyled

http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/...psd76bb89e.jpg
