Hard to believe it has been 7 years since I started the mods on my 2010. Still going strong, with only a few functional issues - a testament of detailed and meticulous wrenching. Only minor issue is using up/purging old premium gas since the car is basically a infrequent driver and see's mostly car shows - old gas makes for harder starts as sometimes it takes 3 tries to fire, but still runs great.
Made a few more mods over the years.
- Added a separate battery in the trunk to power the LEDs. Found 8-10 hours of use at a car show would tax the regular battery too much. Use a charge port in the trunk for quick battery tender plug in.
- New LEDs in the fender vents and CAI Air Box.
- New Raceseng Ashiko shifter Knob. Big and heavy, makes for improved feel and shifts.
- More Engine Bling - chrome loom over most hoses and wires. Detail is everything at Car Shows.
- Extra Ground cable from the engine block to the Frame, and in the trunk. Grounds are critical especially in a Camaro with the battery in the trunk. I still use the stock Battery which is on a tender at all times.
I moved this year to Attica MI which is much more a rural area, so there are less car shows locally, but will probably do the drive back to the Metro area for the big 'un's. First order was to reconstruct my new house's garage to be worthy of my cars. So I installed a 9.1 HT Surround system with a 4k TV and gloss coated work bench. Almost too pretty to work on...
And have plans in motion to build a pole barn so I can build more cars, Camaro's of course!
