V3NOM CAMARO (aka sstormtroopr)
 
Hello all. To begin, I am WAY late in the creation of this journal and will be periodically posting to get it all caught up. That being said, most will not find this journal to their tastes as I will begin with a majority of "appearance" mods before moving into "performance" items. The reasons for this are multiple and varied, but the biggest factor is that I need and will be utilizing the factory warranty for as long as possible, since the SStormtroopr Camaro is a daily driver and will be found travelling I10 from Houston Texas to New Orleans Louisiana constantly, however I refuse to stay stock.

So let's begin.

2016 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS
Summit White Exterior / Red Hot Interior.
A8 Transmission, HUD, MRC, NPP, Sunroof.

First few months of ownership flew by. Also developed a habit of stopping any and everywhere to get a photo.

At this point I also began teaching myself how to edit photos.

My first visual mods started like most others - EASY and CHEAP. So...blacked out the bowties with vinyl, and also used red vinyl pin striping to outline and highlight the OEM stripes.

Another very inexpensive mod I toyed with, is using red reflective trailer tape to make my own "Red-Line" stripes for my OEM wheels.

Every good pilot needs a good wingman, am I right? :noidea:

My next purchase of course was the GM Darkened Tail Lights. Still, in my opinion, the best looking OEM tails ever created. And followed this up with the ZL1 1LE third brake light...but do I really need to post a pic? We have all seen them at this point.

And then it begins. I begin my SS to ZL1 conversion using American Authority products. In addition, I also opt for their 1/4 window cover/scoops and Fuel Lid. All items pictured here as they arrive, only unboxed for photo op.
