Help with various upgrades to a ZL1
My 2018 ZL1 is in the first stages of being built....I am looking for various additions to upgrade looks and minimal performance upgrades that will not effect warrenty.
My dealership is good with exhaust, CAI, and anything not needing a tune. I am looking for a strut tower brace (looks) and rock guards...and ideas for engine dress up. It is a CGN that will only see car gatherings and sunshine. It will be for my son (almost 16) and I to cruise, work on, and enjoy. |

Enjoy the car as is before modding... it's pretty darn awesome stock...
Tony Maimo Throttle Body is all you need... and letting it break in, it wakes up after 1500 miles |

I did have the Tony Maimo on my list and just read the thread about it...still studying and researching the whole CAI debate. Will probably wait and see what is available in a month from now. Saw some prototypes at the Good Guys show in Columbus that LOOKED nice.
My son loves carbon fiber...looking for anything in C.F. to dress up the engine compartment. Ordered the ZL1 with exposed CF hood, gas cap, and dash...mainly for him. He's going for the Transformers look! |

I would verify compatibility on the strut tower brace before purchasing. The convertible ZL1 on display at Camaro Fest didn't have one so there might be a clearance problem between the brace, the LT4, and the ZL1 hood.

My son is my life...period!
He has been through too much at an early age. Still, he has persevered and flourished. He is an honor roll student, plays and loves football, loves cars and fishing and causes me Zero Problems. He has a hate of drugs and alcohol due to his Mother and relatives, and his best friend dying at 13 after being hit by a drunk driver, while walking home from practice. His goal is playing football in College and going into Automotive Photography and Drone Photography. He has goals at 15 that even I never had! He helps me at home, and asks for nothing, most polite and down to earth kid you ever met. I have the financial means, so anything that I can do to nurture his love of cars and his enjoyment of them, just benefits our relationship even more. So I need Carbon fiber! lol I do have emblems being made for Camaro ZL1, 376 c.i., and 850 HP in Autobots Alphabet. Maybe tacky to some, but I explained my reasons! |
