Thanks! And it's really ironic to me that this will be my 5th winter here and the first time it's snowed in December, let alone been this cold this early... And of course it's when I have a sports car as my only car (I've had C5s and C6s before with a DD of some sort previously, or last winter I just had my truck because of a back injury).

However since my new job pays for bus commute to work, and it takes me the same amount of time to commute on the bus as to drive... it'll sit in the garage for now (with my Yamaha FZ10 - another warm weather toy) and be driven sparingly til it's consistently over 40 degrees. Ordered some visual mods for now, which I'll update the first post with (and overall plans too)

Do you still have that Colorado? I have thought about getting one of those also.

Traded it in - But I will completely admit that if I had the money, I'd have kept it. WONDERFUL truck!

In 2-3 years after I've paid down the Camaro a good bit, I would consider buying the ZR2 they just announced a couple weeks ago - maybe as a 1-2 year old used model. Looks rad

Mojave 12-09-2016 09:02 PM

Yeah, I would love the grab a ZR2 diesel some day. I am now busy modding my Camaro too much to divert money to that idea yet, lol

I feel the same haha.

Got the taillights today and the blackout film for the lights.
Tint goes on tomorrow :)
Pics to follow!

RideZX6R 12-14-2016 08:20 PM

50% tint on windshield (for heat and dash protection)
5% all other glass
Phastek tint strips for reflectors on rear bumper, and all side markers - crap camera phone pic at dusk makes it look like the rear 1/4 windows are darker than the doors but both are 5%

(not pictured) Black out 3rd brake light that says "CAMARO" on it.

Got my OEM GM Dark tail lights in the mail, waiting on the black badges. Will install those and remove the fender badges and then appearance mods are done until a 1LE wickerbill comes out.

OMG those tail lights are so SICK ! I have to do that soon(ish)

F1FTY 12-22-2016 01:59 PM

Damn, that looks good!!!

RideZX6R 12-22-2016 05:42 PM

Thanks guys!

Black bow ties came in the mail today (along with the microsuede knee pads), but I'm visiting family out of town... so the install will have to wait.
