I still have to black out the side Camaro emblem. I also have dual color halos, dual color fog halos and afterburner tail lights to install. Those lights might get professionally done. The vinyl installers will be doing a lot of work. More pics to come. Thanks for reading.

Future mods:

C.A.I intake
Magnaflow exhaust
Pfadt drop springs

Nice ride, Warfighter! I love the color, (of course.). If I didn't have a 1LE, I would have optioned that spoiler, too. I ordered mine with the heritage grill, and yes, the bowtie came off immediately! Good work and welcome back to CONUS!

Thank you very much. I was really against red when I was car shopping. But now, it really is the color for me. I love the spoiler too. It wasn't until I joined this site that I found out it was not a standard option.

Thanks Chris. I wanted to start one a long time ago, but it would have been just a bunch of me whining and missing my car. LOL I have a lot more planned and with a fully supportive wife, everything will come along nicely. And Thanks, it is so good to be home.

Gorgeous ride, LOVE the red with the red calipers. Congrats on your beautiful vehicle and thank you for your service. My son is stationed in Kentucky right now with the possibilty of deploying to southern Afghanistan and the thoughts of owning a dream car when he is financially able is what keeps him going. Thank you for sharing your mod journey!

Thank you very much. I am happy to serve our great nation. The red caliper covers really set off the black wheels. I have been to Afghanistan and it is a great place to save a ton of money. Tell him to keep his head up.

I love them too. The first time I saw them in real life was a week ago. I bought on an impulse with the hopes they would work out. It paid off.

I have always loved black wheels. Black and red are a great combo.
