Hopefully this light winter in New England will continue and I can get my winter mods done! Front splitter and

Wind Restrictor !!! Custom Camaro racing flags !

So what do you think ?

pastohio · 02-12-2012, 05:55 PM

Not so sure I like the flags, maybe without would work better for me, where, how attached in the vehicle and of course, how much ?? Has it been tested in strong winds ??

Would a wind restrictor make any difference to front seat passengers? It is short and so far back.

Nutbutt · 02-12-2012, 06:15 PM

The engineer in me came out and I ended up cutting some cardboard to simulate and I was amazed that there was a significant reduction in wind and road noise.
The Windrestrictor is attached to the tonneau cover bolts.
Remember this is just a photoshop, when it gets here Ill post up the real thing! I just can't wait !

Did you decide to get the lighting and brake module and dimmer? I am still on the fence...

Nutbutt · 02-12-2012, 06:35 PM

I got the lighting and dimmer, I didn't get the breaklight option.

I'm thinking about adding a front splitter to my vert. Have you decided on one? I'm leaning towards the one included with the OEM ground effects package.

I am thinking about both of these mods as well, am thinking about just an SS on the wind restrictor.

Went with the Stillen splitter. Seen it a few time and liked it the best. It was a toss up between this and a carbon fiber one.

You really can't go wrong with any design. I usually recommend you do something custom so no one has one like yours.

I got an early christmas surpise yesterday, I found out my family chipped in and ordered me a wind restrictor from King Penn.

Anything I should know or heads up before I install it? I plan on installing this myself.

I got the SS Camaro logo(logo#15), color changing kit and the Ghost module kit for the various different setup options.
