Went car shopping!

Once I saw the blue Camaro I fell in love with it....so today I decided to pull the trigger and bought it. This car is just awesome. I have the weekend to enjoy it. Here is a quick pic, I will put more once I take better pictures. First mod will be lowering springs...what options do we have for springs?

1SS, M6, NPP, black wheels

Congrats. Nice color choice. Maybe a splitter added to the mod list too?

You can't go wrong with hyper blue. That's for sure. I love mine. Ride looks sweet!

Awesome choice! But then again I think any Camaro is an awesome choice! You get to enjoy your NOW, I still have to wait a couple of months...

Have fun!

Absolutely love the blue myself, congrats. As far as your options for springs goes, I'm not up to date on all the offering but I do know that Chevrolet Performance designed some spring for these cars right out of the gate. I'm sure they're more expensive than aftermarket offering, but I personally like parts that were designed right from the O.E. engineers specifically for my car more than aftermarket parts. More than likely, they probably won't hurt your warranty as well, if you care about that?

Eibach has a spring kit as well, look like it says their springs lower about 28mm, where the Chevrolet Performance parts spring/shock kit lowers 20mm.

Couldn't find anything available from Bilstein, H&R, Phastek or Hotchkis for a 2016+ Camaro. BMR 's website wouldn't load for me to check there....

Very nice! I'm in Fresno working for the moment. If you see another Hyper Blue rolling around town on Arizona plates it's probably me. Any good Camaro meets around here?

Enjoy the car!

How long are you going to be in town? Maybe I can set something up before you leave.

Congrats!
