I finally took pictures!

It was a perfect day weather wise here in Iowa so I went ahead and cleaned the car up for some pictures! Been a long time coming - laziness had gotten the best of me. Enjoy

Good looking car, personally I don't like the wheels, or the CAI. Both kinda draw too much attention, but I do however like the brembos. Are you trying to have metallic gold as a secondary color?

Yep Iowa is the Hawkeye state so we bleed black and gold out here. Didnt want black wheels so I went with gold calipers. As far as the CAI - I know its unfortunate. I bought from a member on here that raced and his family wrapped it in gold to cut down on heat. Figured it would be a pain to remove so were keeping it lol

Very nice. I actually like the wheels. In this day and time when they all have to be black to be cool. Nice to see something different

Thanks Pete I tried to pick something that we dont see alot of on Camaros. The Avant Garde M359 wheels kind of look like the BMW wheels and Ive always liked those alot.

Sorry, I have been trying to find an excuse to use that!

I actually like the headlights. Adds a nice bit of personality to the car.

They aren't, but would be ok at a car show or another venue on private property (drag strip, auto-x, etc...).

OP, I like the car. Including the wheels.
