My dealer actually did it to their display Camaro knowing whoever buys it will take it off.

i just keep mine in the pocket on the back of my seat(single cab) and have never had a problem

Only problem with "no traffic" is places like Transit Road begin to look a lot like a drag strip in your head at that hour of the morning...

One question, do those spacers expand as you tighten the bolt or do they just fit perfectly into the grille area?

The bushings expand slightly to make a snug fit. You won't want to tighten them down so much that they bust the plastic of the grille.

So here is some ordering information. Feel free to contact Doug at ******@sympatico.ca. The bracket once complete will sell for $100.00 CAD shipping included (approx $15) or approximately $92.12 USD (based on today's exchange rate).

Soon...probably this weekend. I want to drive around with it on for a few days and make sure there aren't any issues I don't foresee... Correct length stainless standoffs are now on the car also.

You just cut your aerodynamics in half

Make sure you take your Camaro to the max speed. I don't want this thing to crack and fall off after doing a few high speed runs like that front fascia problem.

Oh, by the way, you might want to add some type of small bushing between the two pieces (that attach using the fascia bolts) and the fascia, in order to prevent or isolate any rubbing of the metal against the underside of the fascia. Other than that, I like it!

Hmmmm... don't think I will warranty high speed runs...

Not a bad idea; maybe glue a thin strip of rubber where the arm/fascia contact points are?

If I have no problems over the next couple of days, it looks like the stainless bracket setup with all the hardware (stainless screws and nuts for connecting the three bars to the plastic bracket, new longer m6 bolts for the fascia, stainless standoffs ,etc) included will be $36 plus shipping. So those who are interested, PM me and if all goes well over the next couple days, I'll start shipping early next week.

Careful.... it's not really legal in NY that way. If they want to be ultra-pickey... supposed to be a foot from the ground in NY.
