Ozcar's Red Beast!!! [COTW 5/18/15]
About time I got my build thread started!! My name is Ozcar from Orange County,CA and here is my story...
In 2013 of summer I began searching for my new car!! I'll be honest I never imagined I would buy a camaro! The car wasnt even on my list lol. I began searching for Red Dodge chargers or a Black Chrysler 300. I went to a local dealer ready to buy the dodge, called em up and went. As soon as i got there the car had been sold. (Thank god). Anyways, I began browsing the dealer and saw a black 300 I really wanted it but the thing that held me back was that I really wanted the bright red color! Even though the chrysler 300 was one of the first cars I've wanted lol. That same day after leaving the dealer my brother in law was with me and wanted to check out a local chevy dealer! As soon as I saw all the camaros I fell in love with them! My in law purchased a Dusk edition. Couple days later I was on the search for A VR and i bought a 1lt camaro! I knew nothing about camaros rs, ss bla bla! I just wanted red lol A few months past by and i was already looking into trading, found out about the camaro5 forum and the modbug bit me.... Follow me on IG for more @ozcar_r Here is my camaro completly stock http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psf3fc9e32.jpg And here is what i accomplished in less than a year:headbang: http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psfr6upfiq.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psd0zxtwz2.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psx8coqb6g.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psirso7mqd.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0rabsavj.jpg |
So the first mod I did was to buy leather like seat covers couple weeks after I got the car! I hated the grey cloth seats and wanted a sporty look! I dont have an actual pic but these are the ones I got!!
http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9o2ydlod.jpg Second on the list I ordered Oracle rights for the headlights and fogs! Planning to upgrade to the anzo or rs! http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psjgf9kvwx.jpg Third, I wanted a different look so I bought couple cans of plasti dip and dipped my Hood, wheels, spoiler and taillight bezels. http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...psgd1rm5u3.jpg http://i1020.photobucket.com/albums/...ps00dda8f3.jpg |
Next up, I hated the dip on my hood, it attracted so much dust and just looked ugly! So I found a hood that was wrapped matt black and put it on! Much cleaner. I also put red bowtie decals.

Looks great! Love the red/black&carbon fiber combo. How tall is the cowl on the hood? Looks awesome.

Awesome transformation!
