Also just got back from Salt Lake city to visit family over the weekend, and I was very surprised to see what my average fuel economy was on my way home. I took this shot after driving 380ish miles.

Also snapped this one on the way. Gotta love a good Wyoming sunset.

Also got my vanity plates finally. Took about 2 1/2 months

Just got my windows tinted. Got 15% all around. Cost a grand total of $280. I am very happy with the finished look. Much more privacy

Seriously? You threw a cup of ketchup on my car? Drive-by's just arent what they used to be I guess.

I finally got around to putting my snow tires on, and not a moment too soon considering it snowed several inches last night. I bought Perelli Scorpions and got to use them last night and today in the snow. Al I can say is, Wow they make a huge difference. My Camaro is actually doing better than my old FWD did when it had some very admirable all-season tires on it. I am very happy that I got these instead of driving my POS truck all winter long

Well, the car has been handling the winter fantastically. I must admit, I dont like having to rinse the dirt from the snowplows off all the time. Also, got a sticker in the mail, so I figured it would be fitting that it be my car's first, and possibly only sticker.

So it snowed a few inches here this morning, and we figured it would be the perfect time to get some doughnut footage.

I have a whole bunch of new ideas for mods this spring and summer. Looks like I'll be working on the car's lights as well as suspension upgrades and perhaps some added horsepower! I might even paint on a new set of stripes that as far as I know haven't been done before. Stay tuned!

First mod of the year. SMD Interior 9 LED Pod from JWMotoring. More LED's are definitely going to be installed.

How do you do that ? I live in Jersey and have the same ugly front plate. I read some where there was a fold up/in hide a way plate bracket. What would I do with the holes that were already drilled out for the original GM front plate holder ?

If you want to remove the drilled bracket, you'll need to take it into a body shop and have them patch the holes and paint over the patch. The retractable license plate frame is on my to do list but it'll be a while since the patching likely won't be cheap.
