Wanting to get this done. Can I ask how much and how long it took?

What!?!? With all that work you've been putting into it!?

Drove it to work this morning because the weather looked like it would be clear (though very cold!). It ended up snowing on my drive. First snow she's ever seen! But as others have pointed it, it's just a car. She will survive the snow and even the salt. These cars were made to drive, not to stare at in our garages.

Yup, It's gone. I have too many back issues and health problems to keep get getting in and out of this car and messing with it. About to be have a spinal fusion at the L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels on April 6th. I'll be hospitalized for a few days and down for quite a while. It was fun while it lasted, got it with 17K on it, put 13K miles on it in a year. It placed and won a few car shows and is a great car. Time to let another owner enjoy this ride..... Goodbye for now Camaro Family haha

I took them to a local guy here in Columbus - he charged me 200.00 including rebuild (since he needed to pull the calipers apart to powdercoat them properly). I need to get it out in the light to see the true color as they are very metallic and should pop in the light. Right now I am thinking I should have gone more gold than bronze. As soon as I am able I will get pics.

Powdercoating comes out way better than painting if anyone was wondering -

Rims and chrome stripe. Thinking of removing the stripe though. What you guys think? The stripe has a gap still as I need to order more viynl. But haven't decided if I want to keep the chrome or no

I'd remove the chrome strip; IMO they take way from the looks of the wheel (and car) and make them look cheap ... of course we all know what opinions are like and everyone has one
