That looks really good. My buddy has a yellow Camaro and he painted his yellow to match the car and it looks great..

Went through that same dilemma. It’s a horse apiece, imho. I left mine as is. The main reason was, it was easier.

Picked up my 2011 SS Convertible after having paint correction, protective film and ceramic coating applied. Looks great! Note the darkened front corner markers.

Today I bought Cradle Mounting Bushings. ....inserts.

I know full bushings are better.
But as described, this kit should be sufficient for my performance 440 HP.
So we'll see how the improvements work.
The original setting of the Camaro 2010 is really terrible .

Glad to know you have a good opinion of their quality .
Soooooo I received the harness yesterday . I'm not thrilled . It IS a well made harness . Problem I have is that that portion that goes to the radar detector , out from under the headliner is WHITE , not black as is shown in their ad . Why do they think a white wire that does show , is a good idea in a dark interior ?

Enough rant ... I taped it off and painted the wire black , hopefully it holds up . I do like that there is no wire hanging down to the power port anymore .

Installed the Whiteline cradle bushing inserts. My car already had solid rubber cradle bushings, so I had to cut the teeth off the inserts and use them just to fill the top & bottom voids. Even so, it made a noticeable difference and completely got rid of my 1-2 shift crabwalk (pretty aggressive tune on the A6). After I was done, I borrowed the alignment rack at my brothers shop. I use my car for the normal light to light fun and high speed canyon and mountain runs (no drag strip here anymore). I always do my own tight spec alignments and (according to my wife I’m hopelessly OCD) I’m constantly making adjustments to dial it in to my liking. I’m now at 0.1* total toe front and rear, 1.8* camber in front (reduced from 2.0*), 0.8* camber in the rear (reduced from 1.0*). So far so good, we’ll see how it handles the canyons next weekend.
