Figured I'd post up here as well. As I do plan on doing some touches here and there even though AO or Tom Peters would slap me for touching their masterpiece but some personal touches are needed

As most know, I happened to be the 1st lucky sob to take delivery of the very first '16 Camaro. #33 off the line which is the #1 customer order vehicle off the line as the first 32 were the "pre-productions" and used for marketing purposes. You can catch the whole write up of the very first customer review of the 2016 2SS Camaro as well as the whole event HERE.

Anyhow... What I had ordered was (and sorry Sledge, I am stealing your design as I think it should be standard!):
Vehicle: 2016 Camaro 2SS M6
Color: Garnet Red Exterior, Adrenalin Red Interior
Options: NPP, MRC, Navi, 56V low gloss black wheels, Black Bowties




Now that we got the intro out the way, I can talk about the future plans of mine. Also the ENTIRE album for my vehicle can be found HERE, which I do update quite often with new pictures and what not as I do not post everything to the forum.

Reality plan(s) aka the ones that are happening ASAP:
- On Monday I am finally getting the black bowties installed at my local dealership. DONE
- Clear tint inside the glove box (to preserve Danica Patrick's signature, picture HERE)
- Tinting @ Protint in Plano, TX (clear tint on windshield and llumar atr series dark tint sides and same medium tint on back)
- Radar detector hardwired in asap for my 9500ix @ EarMark in Plano, TX
- Baseline dyno done @ Cobb Tuning in Plano, TX as well as 21st Century Muscle cars in Addison, TX as well. (Cobb has Mustang Dyno and 21st has Dynojet thus I want both baselines, STOCK)
- Borla/Flowmasters xpipe (the 2 companies I have been in contact with to secure the very first xpipe for review/testing)
- I have acquired a throttle body and an intake manifold off of a 2015 vette a couple months ago that I will be sending out to WeaponX for their amazing porting work.
- Most likely Chevrolet Performance intake the second I can order it AND/OR AFE intake (I am in contact with them as well)
- Another baseline dyno pulls @ cobb + 21st AFTER installing intake (with Chevy ecu tune that comes with the intake), ported throttle body, ported intake manifold, borla or flowmasters xpipe.

Absolutely no rush personal touches:
- Chevrolet Performance Blade spoiler painted low gloss black to be the same as the 56V wheels. If Chevy won't offer it in that color (which they most likely won't be doing it), I will just have Trade Secrets down in Dallas paint it for me.
- Chevrolet Performance New Grill fascia (from SEMA, "black concept" vehicle has them)
- Chevrolet Performance BLACK SS badges
- Chevrolet Performance BLACK NPP quad tail pipes (from SEMA, "black concept" vehicle has them)
- Exhaust manifolds ported by SoCal Porting AND ceramic coating (Cerakote Ceramic coatings)
- MRR will be sending me their ZL1 replica wheels thus I will most likely grab a new set of TPMS from Maureen @ Rodgers, and put something wider than 275s and most definitely PSS's on them that has no fitment issues at all.

Parts/stuff that is in the limbo for me to get, aka MAYBE:
- Darkened tail lights
- Chevrolet Performance Lowering Springs for MRC
- Black knight interior spectrum lighting (from SEMA, "black concept vehicle has them)
- Black rear diffuser (from SEMA, "black concept" vehicle has them)
- Garnet Red Splash Guards front and rear
- Driver and passenger carpets black with red stitching and red SS badge on them (from SEMA, "Red Accent Package concept" vehicle has them) IF they ever release them... Since the vehicle is a "concept".


All these are what I can think about for now, I may add more stuff IF I do think of anything else. I will be updating this thread with pictures and crossing out my initial plans THANK YOU FOR READING!!!!
