ENJOY!!!

on are otherwise, you will be doing frequent repairs to the underbody!

i thought the roads in ontario were better... you should stay away from quebec or bring a 4X4 our roads are the worst!! bridges are falling apart road construction everywhere a year later it's even worst after. full of botched up jobs. i like the smooth roads of ontario better.

so does ANYBODY have these? i'm SOOO getting lowering springs when you have BRAND NEW shocks you dont need coilovers...just get springs then wait for the shocks to go out and buy coilovers...gives you time to save

Really diggin the CGM with the GFX kit.. flattering pics of the setup imo..

And imo that pic makes the round tips look good with the GFX, still not in agreement with all the hate towards the mix... (BUT, that is likely just a personal taste thing... I am biased being someone who ordered GFX)

Seems like a 50/50 love/hate ratio towards GFX

As for lowering... Doesn't look bad to me, but I don't really feel with the Camaro that its necassary... Imo they already come stock with an aggressive enough stance that it's really not needed... And although clearance isn't really altered with GFX I think it already creates the illusion of it being lower.

Honestly I miss the clearance of oldschool muscle... I love the look of a raised muscle car and if I thought there was any practicality to it or any way it would fit with the 2010's styling.... I would even consider getting a lift kit on mine. But I'm afraid it would start looking too much like some of the ghetto rides out there these days and take away from the overall beauty of it. Not to mention if you're into performance and all that center of gravity may become a concern...
