A couple suggestions on the wheels, I think I would get the black ZL1 valve steam covers and swap out for some black lug nuts and get the small chevy emblems for your center caps, painted red of course. Again, congrats!

Wow......very nice and unique ZL1, love the car. I've seen that you installed some BMR springs. My question is how does it ride and feel? I am still on the fence on lowering my ZL1. I just can't seem to tamper my magnetic suspension.
Keep up the great work and keep the pics coming.
Take care

i asked alot of the great folks here on the site, including some of the sponcers on here. eevryone pretty much told me the same thing. dont go lower than the 1.25. to be honest the car rides the exact same, n the drop is hardly noticable. i wish i could of gone lower but the mag ride would then b compromised. hope this helps. and thanks for the positive feed back.

Bill,

Who makes a black valve steam cover for the Camaro TPMS?

Thanks,
Steve

It says not compatible with the ZL1? I went to my local O'Reilly auto parts store and purchased a set of black valve stem caps. Not the same as those you posted (they do look nice) and were less money.

wheels

Steve & Orlyhpd,
That's them on Amazon. I got the chrome ones for my wheels, very nice. Remember to get the center cap emblems from Roger at Emblempros.com. Like I said he can make just about anything you may want for your car. Take care.

Bill

Hey my Brothers, what's up? Long time no chat. You've been running under the radar, LOL! Done qa great job on your ride! Keep up the great work and congrats on the COTW!

BTW, how do you like the Z/28 vs the ZL1? I personally love it. Looks ten times more aggressive and we all know the Z's are killer beast so IMO is more appropriate for that monster.

Hey homie, thank u for the kind words, really appreciate. Wish the wallet was flying low as well but.that's impossible. Up above u mention z28, I'm guessing ur referin to the spolier. If so I love it. Changes the aggressiveness of the car.
