Thanks! I know carbon fiber isn't for everyone but I think it's hard to beat that look when the sun hits it. The sound system surprised even me because I actually was able to pull it off lol.
I do have the Cipher Auto kit but I'll admit its purely there for looks. If you're looking to use it for actual autocross/road course, I'd go with Speedware or the setup Synner has. The belts are 4 point and there's no anti-submarine and I just used the factory mounting points for lower and rear seat mounting points for upper. I don't have a rear seat and I didn't feel comfortable cutting the belts and wrapping around the harness bar. You also have to be careful of the harness bar pinching the factory belts preventing them from retracting and tensioning properly. For the install, there is a DIY I'll try to dig up in the DIY section.
Updates!
So my rear tires were kind of toast and I explained to my wife they were so worn that it could be dangerous to drive in so she said for me to go ahead and get whatever tires I needed to make it safe again. I ended up going with some Michelin Pilot Super Sports and couldn't be happier. Before and Afters.
I also received a set of the Stainless Works 3" ZL1 Retro Chambered Quad exhaust. Now all I'm waiting for is my G5R carbon fiber rear diffuser to come in.
Over the fourth of July weekend I went to Camaro Superfest in Ypsilanti, Michigan and we did a few laps on Michigan International Speedway and our club did some pretty neat photos.
