 Working on the coupe this evening. Blacked out the headlights, and added some Plasma halos! Ivan's idea. Luvin it! Whatever SWS charges to bust open headlights. IT IS NOT ENOUGH! I was too chicken to bake em, so I used my torch, and eased them off. First one took forever, the second was a breeze after I figured out what I was doing. Platidipped the chrome, and tucked the halo around the HID. Should have been this way from the factory. Better pics coming after I get it back together and outside. Stock  After blackout

Brother Bear that looks so much better!!! How they come out installed in the car?? Sweet man. I like so far.
Had a fresh off the truck 2014 SS/M6 come in Friday. Did a dyno tune and it picked up some sweet power!! Car had a K&N and a BBK TB on it with some hesitation. Smoothed it out and let it rip. These things have a little in em!! |

thanks brotha. Jeremy @ Superior said it went smoothly. cutting 12" x 12" was a tad spooky... but nonetheless, he lined it up with the shapes on the car really well.

But we got it and it wasn't hard at all man. Easy!! Looks great man!! I like that whole "ramping up to get heat out of the engine bay for a good reason" prep work.  About to bang out and head home for the day. Just finished off a C6 that ran a little later than I'd hoped today. But it came out righteous and the customer is psyched. Got to meet a Camaro5er who is local to us here this morning. Hopefully Stacy chimes in and can jump in our fun here. He's gonna be hooked on his Camaro now with those Long Tubes and tune!  Even did some Saaaabaru work today. LOL Oracle HIDs came out good on that bad boy wagon. On to tomorrow....good night fellas!! Ivan |

 Welcome to the ABQ Lounge! LOL Great to meet you and have the opportunity to work with you on your Camaro today. Thanks for trusting us to install your headers and dyno tune her! What a great car and made some great numbers! Always like to share the knowledge and have guests over to the shop. Stop by again any time sir. Ivan |

They sound much better than the OBX headers for about the same price. They are made quite well and fit pretty darn good. The sound is also pretty good. Althought these were installed in front of a factory Catback with the big trash cans, it could still be identified as being a performance car. I had them long ago with a DT Catback and they sounded very good to me. For the price, they are a good buy imho. Perhaps Stacy can post up a video and his thoughts. Ivan

Sweet! On a side note anyone know where to dispose of oil that has coolant in it. Did a head gasket change on a buddies car and now I have a. Bunch of used oil I'd like to get rid of.

 The dumps out here in the east mountains will take it if its in a sealed container....Let me know if I can help. I'm hunting for a new project if anyone has any leads! Looking for a 3rd or 4th gen cheap. might even look at a T/A. Body would be more important than motor. Anyone have a roller up for grabs? Interested in a vinyl wrap for your car? Might work out a trade....
