  • some appearance mods to the camaro!

    well, since my car was in the shop 95% of the time last summer, i didn't really have any time to do the things that i had always wanted to do to the camaro...until this summer of course

    well, i started by replacing my rusted out hooker shorties with factory manifolds and a factory y pipe. after removing the cat, i had a custom 2,5 inch catback fabricated with a single 3 inch tip and it sounds great! props to TLC in royal oak.

    i then moved onto installing a new oil pressure gauge in the center console and removing some wires from the old one's.

    after that, i decided to buy some VHT nightshades and tinted my tail lights the "right" way...(taped off the reverse lights).

    i then shifted towards performance a little bit and stole my brother's k&n cold air intake. shhhhhh!!!

    i then embarked on a fairly ambitious project:the tail panel. i say ambitious because i had no experience in spray painting before!

    removed the badges, sanded, taped the "camaro" letters off, primed, sanded, sprayed, wet sanded...BAM, it turned out perfect.

    i "borrowed" this off my brother's car too

    AND, this is how it all turned out!

    future plans include wiring a fan switch and possibly yellow fog lights just to be a smartass! haha

                  Because A) I was more worried about running him over with my mom's Fusion, and B) I had to drop my brother off at his friend's house.

                      So isn't your brother going to notice that he's missing an intake and a 3rd break light? I know I would...

                        well, he's not exactly using it right now. its sitting in my driveway and has been for about a year. besides, he just bought a GTO and is probably gonna get rid of his camaro anyway.
