I unfortunately had three curb rashes on mine but went to a local wheel repair that was actually recommended in the past on this forum. $100 a wheel and looks like new!

while the chassis is fairly rigid already, it's certainly resonant. The metal under the rear seat is much thinner and sounds like it.
I was very close to doing that with my 1LT but with my 2SS it might be a long time until I decide to go that route

Why does your car look blue? PhotoShop?

The color is shadow gray metallic, mine tends to look that color in certain lighting as well prior to my wrap.

HDR style photos tend to do this as well...

Most new cell phones can do this

Yeah, the car did look exceptionally blue in that particular light, but the HDR on the phone really brought it out, thought it was kind of a cool effect...

Thanks! I absolutely love the 1LE wheel, I've wanted them since I bought the car, finally pulled the trigger... They look great and the added width helped traction quite a bit!

Aside from the factory ZL1 wheels, the only other factory style wheel I like on the Camaro are the SS 1LE wheels...

Still partial to my MMR 28 wheel (aka Z/28 wheel), but I liked them more on my 5th gen than the 6th gen cars..

Yes, the 1LE wheels are awesome! Best looking OEM Gen6 wheels as far as I'm concerned. I like them so much I purchased a set of take off 1LE wheels and tires that I'm going be put on my ZL1.

When I was ordering my 2SS I was contemplating a ZL1, I would have done the same thing!

Yep, same here. I wanted them since I bought the car and finally added them this year. I don't know why I waited so long. Just love the look.
