What did you do to your 6th Gen Camaro today?! - Page 1038

Having my calipers done today on my Black ‘24. Everyone goes red so I figured I would go gloss black to match car. Also installed a new Speed Dawg shift knob on a Barton adapter a few weeks ago.

REALLY like the gloss black calipers. If I ever do mine, gloss black will be what I do also. Red, is alright, but agree with you that most do red. Like you, I don't like to do what most do. I tend to go the other way to be more unique

Yeah I really think they will look good behind the stock wheel. I like the stock wheel/color but the calipers being same color they were lost. I think with the wheels spinning seeing the gloss black with logo on black car will be a classy touch!

Took my Camaro mt biking today. I also use the hitch rack to carry track wheels/tires. It's mechanically modded a bit to compete in CAM-C class autox and HPDEs. I don't carry bikes often but it does it really well, you barely notice them.

It's a 2018 SS 1LE, Apex ZLE sized wheels w/PS4S tires, ACS sideskirts and canards, hood vinyl and flag graphic I just replaced with a satin black vinyl that can appear red or gold metallic at certain angles.

It also has an Apex forged 18x12 square setup with RE71RS tires, and the OEM setup for track.

Agree with you 100%!!

. Now, if I wasn't too chicken to try it myself, I'd probably do it soon...too nervous I'll screw something up!! What paint did you use? Did you order the stickers(ZL1 and Brembo)for the calipers?

I’m not doing them. I have a guy out here in CA doing them. 3 stage heat resistant paint and two coats of clear over the emblems. Then ceramic coating them. He prints the emblems there.

That’s awesome.. you’re really getting everything you can out of your car. From the track to the bike path. Very nice.

It's the Curt hitch GM also sells as an accessory, it's been fine.

Yeah, posting that picture should be illegal

Man, how good these pedals look.

DaveC113 · 01-03-2024, 01:10 PM

I have a set of those pedals, still need to install them. They look really nice, very high quality. A massive step beyond most pedal covers.
