Nice hood .. are you going to paint the center glass black or leave it ?. any plans to change the grill to a ZL1 Grill?
..does it bother you the hood lines don't match up with a bumper cover?

Those are all good questions I haven't got to far with my ideas yet. As of now I'm doing a wheel and deal move. The day that I confirmed the deal with the current hood I have another guy sent me pics of his hood and his carbon fiber vent was perfect. I like my hood itself but the carbon fiber vent was subpar since it was painted over a metallic grey color unfortunately that had bad scratches on it.

Grille I'm going with the Heritage. I'm satisfied with it overall and wouldn't mind keeping this setup forever but I know I can make it better than what it is. Bumper don't bother me at all. I got more looks from the car with the new missed matched hood than from before when it was just iom rally stripe hood.

That pewter color killed me so I pulled that hood wrap off and it's much better with the black showing


My car now....hood without pewter wrap

Here's the other hood but I'm trying to sale mine just to get this 1 with a better carbon fiber vent instead. I'll take the logo off the bottom corner as well.

Definitely looks better with the wrap off it....i like your front chin spoiler with your setup on that bumper.. the body lines with a hood and the bumper is not that big of a deal .when I had my 2014 front end with my ZL1 Hood it wasn't that noticeable.. when the time comes and you want to sale your Center scoop off your other Hood let me know ..would be nice having a back up one just in case.. because mine is only fiberglass and I feel one bad Rock could really damage it.
. it was a lot of time and work to paint and polish inside of the area on the hood scoop. Your car looks amazing.. that Inferno Orange will always be one of my most favorite iconic 5th gen colors.

Thanks for all the kind words Elvis. I'm getting the camaro up to speed as far as mods go and feeling good about my progress considering I've only owned it 5/6 weeks now. I'll shoot you a message if it ever goes up for sale.

So yesterday my solo performance MachXL catback exhaust came in delivered by UPS. While hanging out at the exhaust shop, I was able to get some cool pics. That chin spoiler is part of my RS kit in which I had to mod the exhaust outlets. Anyhow I have to run its warriors time for us Bay Area folks....more to come.

Had dealer change my steering wheel after the scuffed it working on header panel. They denied and I threatened with my raff to damage the dealer with BBB, car forums, dealer corp office & Chevy Corp. They caved. That was last month. Today was the day of the switch-out and full syn oil change, at reduced price of 49.00. Kinda neat feeling the brand new wheel.
