Thank you... It's been along time since I did any car photoshoots, so i felt very rusty, but also pretty happy with how they came out. I have some more ideas for shots and will share them when i have time.

Great shots, where did you take those pictures?

I took some here on lagoon view dr. at sunrise...


2079 Lagoon View Dr, Oceanside, CA 92054


and the others at a parking garage in san marcos...


44 Civic Center Dr, San Marcos, CA 92078


Hope this helps :)

Nice, I live in San Marcos, if you get out this way let me know and we can meet up...

Finally got mine delivered and can contribute to this thread:

Brand new….so shiny.

Congrats! She's a beauty.

Twin to mine! Enjoy!!!

Very nice. If I remember correctly you originally ordered Riverside Blue. Your new Satin Steel really pops with the black accents. Congrats!

Thanks, yes, my original order was Riverside Blue, but I was going back and forth between it and Satin Steel in my mind. There was a Satin Steel 2LT at the dealership when I ordered it, and I loved it. I really wanted Hyper Blue, Riverside is a little darker and had more purple tones to me.

A couple more shots!
 

Was sunny and over 50 degrees today, supposed to be in the 60s soon! Few shots I got today:

Is this color on restriction? Would I be able to order one now before the 3/31 cutoff?

Supposedly.

Love the color, would look great with the black gas door and maybe some black ZL1 style side skirts...

My order for Satin steel gray metallic was accepted!

For a 2022 or 2023?

Congratulations! How long did you sit at 1100 status?

It’s a 2022

Thanks! Do you mean like how long before GM accepted the order? I think it was basically immediately because my dealer had an allocation. I submitted my build and placed my deposit on 3/14, and on 3/17 my sales rep texted me and said that GM had accepted my order and that I got all the options I wanted

Here's something different for you. Although satin steel metallic was introduced in 2019, I think it looks great on the '16-18 bumpers and hood on my 2021/18 3LT RS. I took these snapshots when I was out on my first excursion with the "de-fresh" Camaro after getting it back from the shop on Monday.

Man, that looks awesome. Really turned out great.

Was it a bumper designed for a 2019+, or did the 2018 factory bumper fit nicely to start? I feel like for the guys who added ZL1 Style bumpers to their 2019+ they have to have an aftermarket piece that fits between the bumper & the headlights.

Thanks!

Those are factory 2016-2018 bumper covers. The mounting points are the same as the 2019+ bumper covers, but the newer headlights require a "bodywork solution" to fit in. I'll be posting a more detailed write-up on the project once the last couple of issues are ironed out!

looks awesome. newer is not always better. i prefer the look of the earlier models aswell.
those backlights just dont cut it imho.

Haven't posted a photo of mine yet. Just got the M017 installed

Just got my replacement diffuser installed, Ikon with smoked reflectors.

Some snapshots from today - the different faces of Satin Steel Metallic!

Traded in the ‘21 2SS. This is what I wanted all along but couldn’t find it, until I did.

Nice job on the nosejob, was it a pain to get it to fit? I don't have the RS headlights on mine, would it be easier with standard LED headlights?

Sweet! Congratulations!

Thanks! I am not sure about the non-RS lights. The shop altered the plastic trim piece that snaps into the bottom of the headlight assembly so that it "fit" with the '16-18 front bumper and narrowed upper grille. If there is a similar plastic trim piece under the 19+ non-RS headlights, the same approach may work.

When I get my hood wrapped, I am also going to have them black out the two chrome trim pieces in the upper RS grille. That's the only cosmetic issue I have so far with the swap. I am thinking the 19+ headlights actually look a bit better with this bumper cover than the original headlights did...

👍

That is my ideal ZL1 color combo. So nice.

that's what i'm talking about !

I've been seriously considering the SSM as a 2SS convertible; I usually stay away from gray/white but this color...its hard to pick between SSM & VOM.

My 2022 1LE Satin Steel:

GREAT looking car!

I was gonna say, the headlights look amazing with the OG 6th Gen look. Dang.

Looks like someone has been doing burnouts in the parking lot. :smiling1:
