so this weekend i installed ivs havoc rear spoiler. i had it sitting painted in my garage for 3 weeks. the reason it took me so long to install it, is poor poor service of the body shop i bought the spoiler from. so i bought the spoiler from custom classics, lake island, il. they are official retailers for ivs auto. when i went to pick up painted spoiler, they forgot to give me a template for drilling holes in the trunk. they gave me a package with installation instructions, double sided tape, adhesive promoter and there supposed to be template in the package. and i made a mistake that i only looked inside that package when i got home. so i called them and asked about the template. they said that they will look for it and will call me back. 3 days later i called again, because they didn't call me back. and this time they said that they don't have to provide me the template because they don't get them from ivs. even though they guaranteed me while ordering that they will give me the template. so of course i got pissed. i called ivs auto and talked with Adam. he said that he will mail couple of templates to custom classics for me. about a week later i called the body shop again. they said that they have the template and will mail it to me. so after few days i received a thank you letter from them, but no template. so i emailed my address to Adam from ivs and asked to send the template directly to me. he said he will send it. this was two weeks ago. i still didn't get my template. horrible service.
so i drilled the holes in the trunk by description from other forum members. it wasn't perfect, so i have to widen the holes to make it work. so finally i have my spoiler installed, but i will never use custom classics again

i also installed custom painted bowtie. thanks Lupe from River City Creations & Lighting.
and also installed custom A51 emblem. thanks to Roger from emblempros
so my camaro officially have her name badge

Your car looks great! Mods are coming along nicely!!! The hood insert and stripe really give the car an aggressive edge!

Great build so far! Hood insert looks great. As far as exhaust I can't speak for the ones you have but I have the MRT v2 with an LS3 midpipe and I think it sounds great, although the midpipe didn't really change the exhaust note much. I would def look into the MRT v2. I don't have too many great vids of how it sounds but here are two.

About a month ago I installed CAI cold air intake. Thanks OHIO SPEED (Jim) vendor on this site for a great price and fast shipping. I ordered silver/aluminum color air box and tube. And painted them AGM color. And the clamps I painted orange. As you can see, I'm adding ashen grey matallic color parts to my car, and trying to find the balance between IOM and AGM. I liked the orange color when I bought the car, but I think that adding another color it gives more character and more aggressiveness. I painted myself in the garage. It wasn't to difficult, so I'm planning on painting my engine cover and fuse box lid. I bought the paint at http://www.automotivetouchup.com
Originally I planned that my next mod will be RS headlights. But I like so much that deeper tone ("growll) CAI gives when I press the accelerator, that I changed my mind, and will upgrade my exhaust next. Let's make that v6 a little more aggressive and give it more muscle car sound.
