Official IMPERIAL BLUE METALLIC (IBM) Camaro Thread

[VictoryMuscleCars]

Went for a drive at lunch and snapped off a few cell phone pics. I'm planning on washing and detailing tomorrow night, so I'll get a few really nice shots with my digital camera. Hope these help.

hmm i wonder if it would look weird if it were just the fronts? hmmm...

Victory your car looks stunning... just need to get rid of the huge mufflers, either muffler delete (my choice) or spray them black...

i love me some IBM

I think I read somewhere on Camaro5 that someone did that and liked it. I prefer having on both front and back. In the past I got a really nasty chip on my C4 Vette on the rear quarter before I installed guards... always wish I would have installed them earlier cause that darn chip always shouted out at me.

Thanks a ton on the compliment!! I thought those were spare 5 gallon gas tanks. Yeah, I'm currently investigating doing a Corsa or Borla system paired with a K&N intake. Moving a bit slow as I'm wanting to ensure whatever I do that it won't void my warranty.

the corsa and borlas do sound nice... my logic was i was willing to buy the exhaust but i figured i would spend the $10 to do the delete and if i liked it i would keep it, if not but an aftermarket...

and here is a shameless plug for the ADM race intake... performs well and in my opinion looks the best

Here are a couple pics of my 2011 V6 LT RS IBM with silver rally stripes, I picked her up last Wednesday






I had her tinted this past weekend I will post some updated pics with the tint and the ACC P13W led fogs / wiring mod this weekend

Victory...

That looks like one sweet ride!

Splash guards actually look better than I thought they would. Not really a splash guard fan, but reading about how the paint chips easily on these cars, I may reconsider if I can get them done like yours.

Thanks for the pix!

Wow, she looks awesome. There's something about the IBM that just rocks. I've never got so many compliements on a car's color before.

I'm wanting to do the LED and wiring mod too. Definitely post some pics so we can see her. BTW, which color LED are you going with?

Thanks a ton, kmm! I highly recommend the splash guards... protect that hot IBM as much as possible.

I went with the white which according to accstyle is 6k which should be close to the color of the halo's. I am still amazed at how much the tint helped the overall appearance of the car, I went 20% all around except for the driver & passenger sides which are at 27% legal.

Sides are 35% and back is 20%

It's the dealer installed 44% shorter throw Hurst.

I like those splash guards, living on a gravel road makes them a necessity!! I'm going in Monday so they can redo my stripes (bubble on the trunk) and going to ask about these!

Man, I'm so thankful I've got them... the other day I drove down a road that I normally take into work, but to my surprise a work crew was out there and had everything torn up. I went super slow but still heard little rocks kicking up from their construction. Kinda freakin out a bit... I pulled over into a parking lot, jumped out and found no dings or chips. Now I'm not 100% sure there were no chips because of my splash guards, but boy am I happy I had them.

Does anyone have pictures of a 2010-2011 IBM LS in sunlight? Thanks.
