Hey man car looks amazing. Hope to see it someday!

I think for now I am going to abandon the quad exhaust. I am taking the car in to get the wheels powder coated and the calipers done in Jet Stream blue. Maybe the next mod will be the exhaust.

Thanks u will. Who's doing the powdercoating?

The shop is called Serious Autosport, and they have done a few other things to the car. Probably being charged more than I should ($700 for the whole job of powder coat, dismount, and balance etc...) Kev told me about the discounts you guys get with some of the shops, and right now im not getting any deals haha. But, I told them I would let them do it so I don't want to back out of my word.

Also, just a piece of knowledge I wanted to share. Dennis from Double D Mods sent me an e-mail and told me there is going to be a new double din dash kit coming out for the camaro in Spring, and Kenwood also has some amazing new units in their 2013 lineup. He couldn't share more info until January but he got me excited by how serious he was about telling me not to pull the trigger right now if I could wait.

I've been talking w him as well... got the same advice; he couldn't elaborate; but gave me an estimate of late March and said worth the wait. While the hvac unit could be designed a bit more cosmetically appeasing ; I can't imagine what else they can be doing with the head unit. The Kenwoods not even been out a year!

I almost put my whole radio plan on hold (again)... but then I thought back to.all my experiences of buying the first run of just about anything; from PS2 & PS3 to my Camaro... been nothing but headaches being the "Guinea Pig"... I'm still going w the 9990HD / Scosche... i can't imagine the frustration of having to pull that thing out if anything goes wrong; which seems to be pretty common place w new electronics these days. Black Friday sales coming soon... hoping for a good deal!

Yeah definitely on the same page with that. I was more intrigued about the dash kit. I like the current head units that are out so I would pick one of them up when the prices drop as well.

The shop I was at was pitching me on the dual JL Audio sub box for the verts. I had an "AHA" moment when I saw your build and realized that was your car in the picture!

I am going to have Mike paint match my emblems once the whees and calipers are done. I didn't even ask but i'm sure he could have done my wheels for less as well =/

Price doesn't seem to bad.

Thanks for the peace of mind =). I just ordered SOLO exhaust today. That can hold me over since the G2 custom paint is a little delayed!
