From '98 Chevy Lumina to 2010 G5 Camaro

Words can't explain how excited I am to be blessed with a new car! To be honest, it hasn't even hit me yet! I've had it for a little over three weeks and am still in awe and disbelief as I approach it. My first car was a 1998 Chevy Lumina which I had for about 6 years since high school. Had a bad blowout while driving which completely wiped out the front passenger side, and I was at the point where I didn't want to put any more money into it. Waited patiently for about 7 months to find a good deal on a pre-owned 2010+ Camaro and low and behold it came through!

The weather was a bit bad when first got it down here in Louisiana. Then shortly after had to start back another semester in school, so I really haven't had time to be intimate with her yet. Still in all, just wanted to join the forum and keep you guys updated on my furture mods and progress! Thanks!

Recent upgrades

So far I've switched the interior lighting and license plate light to LED. And installed LED Fog Lights/DRLs. Still just have to connect the wire harness so that they run simultaneously as the headlights. More to come...

Crazy you noticed! That's my neighbors Camaro, it's Orange with black stripes. But also, if you pay close attention the second set of pics there's another Camaro you can see off the reflection of the front bumper!
