ZEUSS IOM Build - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Seb360 · 02-23-2014, 07:00 PM

It all started out with the movie Transformers, and ever since I saw that Camaro, it's the only car I've ever wanted. I've always dreamed of having it, even though I knew nothing about it; it's just that it almost spoke to me... haha.

So one day, I go out looking for cars with my parents, and my dad says, "I think we should go take a look at Camaros today." I heard him say that and couldn't believe it. I could not believe that they were actually considering buying me a Camaro. At the time, I had no clue and was oblivious to anything; I did not know the difference between a V8 & V6 and what the Lt and SS meant. A few days later I ended up on this beauty and just had to have her. I'm so happy my parents got me this and am very thankful.

Anyways, this is my build thread and I hope you guys enjoy.

Painted Calipers/Factory Reproduction Wheels

Here are the painted calipers and Factory Reproduction Wheels, I think they look awesome. (Sorry for the really messy garage).

Want to change my interior from the bland cloth. Should I go with leather or suede?

Really indecisive about this and I keep going back and forth.

Painted Engine Cover

Just painted the engine cover and fuse box cover and they look amazing!

About 7-8 light coats of Dupli-Color Chevy Orange-Red engine paint and 3 coats of the clear coat and it looks great.

Did you paint the headlight surround, or is that a vinyl?

If it's a vinyl, and not the one where it has the transformers imprint, where did you pick it up??

Beautiful. I want to do the same, but just do it with vinyl for right now, then in maybe 2 years have a painter strip the vinyl stripes and that and paint it.
