Mmmmm...those hips...

Make sure those side view mirrors are adjusted so that you can see those hips. Don't listen to anyone that tells you otherwise - you will enjoy the view and be perfectly able to see everything else you need to, though you may find yourself staring at those hips.

Congrats, Live Long and Drive a Camaro.

I was lucky I am in a must use front plate state but the dealer I bought it from specializes in Corvette's and Camaro's. So they know we are crazy about holes and they leave the plate bracket off and ask you if you want it installed during delivery.

Looks great!! Removing the front plate will clean it up quite a bit.

Congratulations, what a beautiful Camaro. When I got my Camaro it had that ugly plate mount in the front also. I got these little plug caps from Lowes, painted them and they pop right in. Barely noticeable. You can find them in the section with all the bolts and screws. Check out my Camaro and see what it looks like.

BTW congrats to the OP mine is 2-3 weeks old already loving my ride too.

I bought my car in Nebraska where apparently the front plate is required but I live in Kansas where they are not. I used http://www.bumperplugs.com/ and they work great!

Nice! Hope you enjoy your car. If you're staying in the area you should really look into getting winter tires/rims.

unless its mostly only driven in the summer/fall season when the weather is drier; I have factory summer tires but I don't plan on getting winter tire/rims just to drive on a nice dry day in the winter since my C5 isn't a DD.

It looks like you managed to find one with the beige interior like you originally spec'd, did you go with the automatic or the manual?
Were you able to swing a good deal on it?
It is auto, and yeah, I bought it a thousand dollars lower an the actual MSRP with the tax and all the stuff.

Thanks everyone

So here you go.



I bought the car from MD, but I live in PA, and they do not require front plate unlike MD, so I got stuck with this:





What do you think I should do with it, I really want to take it off, but the drills are the problem.
Also, the tires pressure was 35 in all tires when i drove it from the dealership, after 200 miles to get home, it was 33 in the front and 34-34 in the back. I gave her some air two days ago, and it was 36 in all, and now it is 30-32 front, 30-31 rear. What is the problem??? The weatherr temperature is fluctuating a little, but it would not cause that much change!
Thanks

I think your tires are fine, going from freezing weather and back up can mess with them. It does with mine.

Take the front bracket off, 2 little holes in the black plastic are considerably less noticeable than a giant empty plate bracket.
