At Camaro Fest 2017 I got to meet the man behind the design of the Hotwheels Camaro! Adam Barry! After talking with him and discussing everything that went into the design of it he told me what he wish would have made it on the car. One of the things was the ZL1 Diffuser. the black line under the car kinda stops on the sides and does not continue behind. so with that in mind I bought the ZL1 diffuser and it does look a lot better!

I know what you mean! we had to drill a couple of holes for the ZL1 diffuser to fit. It was kind of un-nerving because once they are there, there's no going back. but after seeing it on my car I don't want to go back, I love it!

I haven’t done the diffuser (yet ;o). I agree it does look awesome. Very clean lines...

On blue, makes the car pop!

I had to get rid of the Holley Covers because they leaked oil
to replace it I now have ZL1 covers


I also have a Mighty Mouse Catch Can



At Camaro Fest 2017 I got to meet Adam Barry!! He signed my Hot Wheels! not to mention we had an awesome conversation about what went into the designs of the special edition Camaros, especially my Hot Wheels!

At Camaro Fest 2017 I had Oracle put in their brighter backup lights. really like these. you can see where you're backing up at night a lot better.
Its kinda funny the blanket is orange... like a Hot Wheels track.
