Appearance Mods

It isn't hard to have a fast car but its hard to look good and go fast at the same time.  I have neither yet but I'm working on it ok.    Pictures.   

GTS Blackouts ($120)- I like the way these look.  Worth the little money spent even though a bit expensive.  I covered the front, rear, and the ugly yellow side markers.  Got these from Auto Zone.

Overlay Badges ($30)-  These are reflective and I like them way more than the stock black badge. 

Rear Camaro Indentation ($30)- Also reflective and it looks great also.  Brings out the rear well.

Painted Hood Struts ($5)-  Paint is cheap and it takes a little time to do but I think it was worth it.

Painted Hatch Struts ($5)- I like these a lot because NO ONE that I have seen so far has done these which makes me feel special.    I did them the exact same way I did the hood struts but the only difference is use a Torx T-50 socket to get those bolts out.  And also make sure the hatch is open when taking them out.  I found this out the hard way.  Just stick a broom handle in the trunk to hold it.

Steering Wheel Indentation (free-left over paint)- What a PITA.  This took forever because it is so small and hard to get the paint in there accurately.  I used a toothpick to do it.

Chrome ZR1 Rims ($1,000)-  Love them.  Nuff said. 

Painted Calipers ($5)-  PITA but worth it.

Engine Bay-  Gave me something to do when I was bored over Christmas break and always gets people looking at the engine at the track.  Its as easy as replacing the convolated black tubing with a different color.  Takes a while but hey.  Then whatever is in there that looks like it can shine, probably can.  I used a Dremel on most of the stuff and it got the job done.  Any polishing tool will work and combine it with some polishing wax for an extra glow.
