New to cars in general, question on paint/interior of the camaro

[thetournykid]

So i'm pretty new on cars, but i'm want to learn about them, my questions have nothing to do with that, but i figured i'd post it.

Anyway, I've been saving for one of the new camaro's for a while now, and am finally going to probably buy the 2SS pretty soon here.

I REALLY wanted to do somthing specific for the color, which would be a black model, but then i wanted blue trim on it, like imperial blue hockeystripes on the side, and blue on the hood. I wanted to get blackrims but the inner's are blue. I also wanted to replace the chevy symbol on the front to make it a blue chevy symbol.
I also want to buy the i guess there called "halo" lights and get them in blue as well.

In the interior i was looking at a synergy green model interior where they had alot of the interior green, I really want to get that in blue. I also want to get blue lights in the floor that go on at night or when the music plays or w/e you can do.. Info on this?


My questions to the good folks of the fourms, would be,

Is this possible at a local dealer?
Where would i have to go to get something like this paintjob?
Does any type of regular "firestone" place put on rims for you?
What would be roughly the prices of this paint job?
How do you get a blue chevy symbol on the front?
How much would the lights cost on the floor/how can they be activated?
Are the blue halo lights even avialable? Are they legal to shine when riding? or what exactly do they do. ect..
One of the main reasons i want the 2SS and not the 1SS is for the leather seats/HUD, How much would leather seats cost to buy/install? What about HUD/is that even possible?

Anything else you guys can add in regards to this i'd really appricate it, or anything you guys want to say

I'm also thinking about doing all this with green instead of blue, but i think blue would look better.


THANK YOU!


PS question.. I probably wouldnt do this for a bit after i got the camaro, but i'm for sure going to be looking to upgrade this, I was looking at some superchargers, and would just like some suggestions on ones to look at/cheapest ones. Also i dont think this is true but maybe it is, if you install that does it void the warrenty?

I know that as far as the floor lights go, you can get it in blue color from AAC lighting. they make specific lighting kits for the Camaro.

You can order the blue vinyl and do the bowties in blue yourself for ~$50.

[TXCammy]

Can't help out much cuz I don't know the answers to most of your questions. I haven't done any exterior mods yet except the the blue bowties. I ordered mine through this site from Xmicro_SS. Send him a private message and he will help you out. He sells the vinyl covers for the front and back. I paid $44 for two sets and its a good thing I bought two cuz my husband messed up the first set....lol. Good luck, I'm sure you will get at least one answer to each question from this site--they guys/gals here are pretty informative.

[thetournykid]

Damn, that was a quick 3 responses, Appricate them.

Lets say i didnt trust myself putting the paint on myself, any clue how much shops would normally charge?

[Dirtdog]

Most of these could be answered by just asking ur dealer. a lot of them can be done after market as well but i just paid the little extra (unless its ridiculous overpriced) and get the dealer to do it.

$100 for painted front and back bowties from Garyscustoms, hes a member on here. they're replacement bowties so u don't really have to do anything just a direct swap.


AAC (Advanced Automotive Concepts) does the blue interior accent lights ur looking for and they can do the blue "halos" as well i believe. http://www.automotivelightstore.com/...allcolors.aspx


About the stripes and hockey stripes on the car, talk to ur dealer about it, they can get it done for you.

Blue interior accent panels are easily bought and installed by ur dealer. i did it with my IOM

Superchargers... there is no such thing as cheap. and i wouldnt even think about superchargers until u can figure out how to put a vinyl overlay onto a bowtie. just my .02 And yes it voids ur warranty

[thetournykid]

Damn man thanks for the response. Those blue halo lights on that pic look sick, Yah i'd like to learn alot of just cars in general, but i got one more question for you

If you just like upgrade the intake does it void the warrenty as well? does doing anything to upgrade void it? Or could it vary from dealers


Thanks man.

[Dirtdog]

From what Ive gathered from the wisdom of the wiser on this forums. anything in theory can void ur warranty if they can prove the problem was caused by ur modification. But its pretty safe to say that cat-back exhausts, and Cold air intakes are safe. Headers usually require a tune and a tune is an instant voided warranty.

Im gonna stay away from anything major for a year or two and then say screw it and void my warranty. but thats up to each person and how much they want to push their luck.

For sure, I just cant imagine that they would have red/green yet not other common colors, you gotta be able to find it somewhere, but i'll let you know what i found out ect..

i think they only have white, yellow, silver, and orange? you could always get them custom painted blue but if you have a 2SS or 2LT make sure you leave the see throug part on top of the door panels unpainted otherwise you wont be able to see the ABL at night

I'm sorry man i feel real dumb in these fourms because alot of times i dont know what some of the lingo is. Anyway are you talking about the interior axle panal colors? or the halo lights? what exactly does ABL stand for?
