Well, I've had mine almost two months now and only thing I have added is gauge cluster from gen5 and pass side of dashboard looked a little plain so I put a trunk SS on it and that's it.
Just curious if anyone out there has gotten so wrapped up into mods that they've overdone it
Thanks for imput

well in my 10 months that I've gotten my baby. I have gotten a Roto-Fab Cold Air Intake, ZL1 Spoiler, ZL1 suede steering wheel, Xo Berlin Rims,CCFL Angel Eyes HID foglights, and of course my first mod Eagle Eye headlights with 8K HID bulbs.

Picked up my '11 SS this April. So far added CAI, ported throttle body, LT headers, strut tower brace, and just ordered my cam last week. Should be done modding for a little bit( or till spring and I can drive my car again).

It's all personal taste and that varies with each person. I think that you can truly change everything and still have it done tasteful, plus then you have enough extra parts to build a whole other car!

But yes I'm a moddaholic myself but everything I do has a reason and theme behind it.

I agree while I only plan on a couple more things for mine, I do enjoy looking to see what you guys are doing
I have thought about old school fender emblems, I think that looks good but not sure if I will or not
I'm 42 now and don't race anymore ,just kinda over doing too much and with house note it a little tough to spend a lot.I am glad to see hot rodding is NOT dead.still love driving old muscle cars but the new camaro is more relaxing to me if I could keep it off 70
Keep cruising

Can you post a pic of the pass side SS? I've been thinking about doing it too, but haven't seen any examples.

How do you like it?

I have more mods then I can list and more on the way. We all have a vision, some think mine is overdone and others don't. Its all in what you like. Just do your own thing and dont worry about what anyone else thinks. Do as little or as much as you like.
