One can I think, but I always have spare ones in case. The lettering comes off with dental floss and a hair dryer to warm up the adhesive. Use goo gone on the residue.

Playing with different themes on the car (stripes).. any feedback?

mydreamcar · 10-24-2011, 06:30 PM

that looks nice, yellow trim rings look great as well

OOLIE · 10-24-2011, 09:37 PM

Looks great guys.... something to be said about taking a base model and putting your own touch to it. Some go performance others go cosmetic. Just great to see all the different upgrade packages created.

Got my 2012 Camaro 1LS last friday! Took me a little while to find one in black with the manual trans. Seems like the dealers would rather order the auto transmissions. My options were floor mats and a spare tire.

The first things I will do will probably be the heritage grill and fog lights.

I think GM did a great job in making this car affordable. I was thinking about the Cruze for my 80 mile daily commute, but the base Camaro really wasnt that much more money. The best part is my wife encouraged me to get the camaro over the cruze!

After trading in my saturn my commute has gotten a lot more fun.

Nice, black is great but damn hard to keep clean good luck . as for the mpg if you don'thave a heavy foot and travel mostly highy I would bet you could get at least 25mpg . When I drove the car back from Boston I was getting around 24 mpg and was driving 80-90 mph most of the way

GMguy70 · 10-27-2011, 11:44 AM

I've always wanted a black car but I already notice that it does get dirty quick.
I checked when I got to work this morning and I'm getting 24 MPG so far, which I am happy with. I have been trying to take it easy for the break in period though.

Earle.Barnes · 10-27-2011, 09:19 PM

I am not sure how I missed this section, but I am glad I found it. Just got mine a couple weeks ago and have done a lot with plans to do more...

Done so far...Blacked out the tail lights, side markers, and rear bezels, black chevy emblems, footwell leds, dome leds, silver hood spears, silver side vent decals, door sill decals, engine cover airbrushed.

To do list, new shifter with buttons to shift, carbon fiber vinyl on door panels and dash pieces, install cup holder lighting, install CAI from CAI, Inc., install phantom black full billet grill (tomorrow)

Why is it so much easier to spin the tired when I have the stock LS wheels on compared to mt RS wheels?
