If you had both ZL1 Add-ons front rock guards fly off, I am curious - what speed did that happen at?

Obviously the LT1s don’t get a rear bumper badge. Changed that on mine today. Now not sure if it like it.

You didn't ask me, but I have a data point, too, I lost one of these at the drag strip at 125 mph, it simply tore out from behind the front wheel...

It's quite possible that I hit something in the lane that I didn't notice, but after this I purchased the Rokblokz guards that don't have metal-to-paint contact and touched up the paint behind the wheel well liner.

I'm loving that color matched spoiler!! I have the same but it's the flat black on a gloss black car. Gonna need to find a body shop now.

Looks awesome to me. Love that color also. Have a feeling I wouldn't have to wash mine as much if I didn't choose black. Such a PITA. But at least my car looks good for about a week or so after washing, if I'm lucky.

I can't put my finger on it after a few beers and Jack, but possibly the front splitter and lowered an inch or so? Curious. And hope the MRI shows good news. Been down that route before with a meniscus tear. Knocked me out of work for almost two months.

Whatever you did, it looks damn good. After my extended warranty is over the mods are coming on mine as well. First a mild cam, tune, and at least a 1 inch drop in the front. And if you don't mind sharing what you did to get that look, and don't mind me copying it, holler. If not, totally understand. : )
Hey, thanks very much. Feel free to copy anything you see on my car.

I spent a lot of time looking at all of the factory options and ended up configuring it as you see it, and then added the 1LE wheels. I optioned the ZL1 spoiler, the ground effects kit, and the 1LE performance suspension. I don't think the 1LE kit lowers the car at all, but the side skirts and splitter definitely make it look like it is.

I watched your video, nice car man. Some of the other differences between mine and yours, is in the model year changes that happened a few years ago.

Two thumbs up for me, looks good!


I've been debating changing some of the SS badging to more of the classic look, and swapping out the fender badges for the classic Camaro script as well.

That's another reason I prefer the ACS Composite molded rock guards. I've had them on both my 1LE and now my ZL1. Not sure about the Rockblokz on a ZL1.
