Minor Mod Monday!

Smoked LED side markers and catch can. Bonus pic of the Course Motorsports Magsafe charger/mount I did earlier.

Need it to get warmer so I can do the ZL1 side skirts and put my stock wheels back on!

Easier than differential bushings. Fairly straight forward video on their website. Two things that made it easy was that once the rear of the exhaust was disconnected, including the four hangers, tunnel brace, and exhaust loosened at the clamp and two bolts, I could push the exhaust towards the passenger side which created just enough room to access the stock part (red box). I also didn't see the need to remove the heat shield so I left it on.

You have to cut the old bushing out but thankfully a Sawzall and bi-metal blade made quick work of that. You definitely need a sharp utility knife to cut around the rubber. Overall, start to finish, including getting the vehicle in the air, and down again... about two hours.

Love the smoked markers, if you want to complete the smoked out look, get a set of these smoked rear reflectors...

2SSCapt,
I smoked mine out too, but instead of getting the reflectors, I got the tinted overlays from Screaming Chicken. As you can tell from the dealer plates still on the car, it was one of the first things I did when I got the car.

How did you run the wiring for the phone mount?

Pulled the console out to wire a fast charge USB-C port under the 12V outlet. With the console and screen both out it wasn't too hard to find a way to snake the wire from the edge of the screen opening into the console area.

Looks great, especially on a black car!

Did you take the reflectors off to install the film or do everything on the car?

Just did them on the car. They are cut to fit and putting them on was pretty easy. Here is a pic of how they came.

SORRY for the sideways picture!

I don't know why the forum rotates pictures sometimes, it's kinda irritating.

Thanks for the info, I think I'm going to go that route too!

Yes, it is irritating for sure, and I'm too dumb to figure out how to NOT make them post sideways...

You're welcome!
