No 50th paint colors though

Found these on River City's site:
http://rivercitycreation.com/2016-17...er-RCC-331.htm

I called and asked about getting the rears only. He said he would call the company to find out and call me back. I asked about the color shown on the first set of covers on that page and he said it is Inferno Orange. No one seems to have an actual color code for the red-orange accent color used on the 50th (stripes, calipers, stitching, etc). I'm not sure if it's the picture or the shadow, but it looks pretty close to the orange calipers on the 50th. If I was able to get a rear-only set in Inferno Orange, I don't think the difference (if any) would be noticeable. First pic is from RCC, second is stock photo from 50th site:

didn't see anything in the manual and I went and took a pic of the top of the trunk area. Is it supposed to go where the rectangle is near the bottom right?:

That's odd. I didn't think a trunk light was an "option".

It's dinky anyway, just one of the same bulbs you'll find above the license plate.

Switching it over to led is definitely a good improvement. Though i guess you'd actually have to have one to start with.

I did nothing with my Camaro today. Unfortunately in Upstate NY it was snowy and slushy and I won't be driving my Camaro in those condition. I was bummed because I love driving my Camaro. I had to settle for driving my 2009 Pontiac Vibe which currently has an error lights on( anybody know if it could be two days of constant rain that caused the lights to come on?) . This happened a few weeks ago after a lot of rain. 3 lights come on check engine, stability control and brake light. I took it to a Toyota place and the guy said it showed no error or problem. It was a bit off putting driving without all the bells and whistles I have on the Camaro. By the way I think the visibility in the Vibe is worse than the Camaro. The Vibe believe it or not is fun to drive with the 2.4 liter engine. I am driving the Vibe until it dies. Best second car I ever had despite the lights on situation. Nothing though is going to be nicer and more fun to drive than my Camaro!!!!!

Wow that sucks. Talk to your dealer maybe they can help you if not you can make a connection yourself.

Keeping having to tighten the fittings on the Mishimoto catch can. Anyone else having that issue? Wish those fittings were metal instead of plastic...

In other news, bought some ramps so I can install some goodies.

I put it away for the winter this morning. We got 6" of snow this afternoon. I cried like my kids first day of kindergarten, maybe more.

GroundhogSS · 10-28-2016, 01:07 AM

I put the black Glo-Tie on the front. I'll get the black one on the trunk tomorrow. Also installed my eyebrow harness. The eyebrows and the DRLs are always on bright, and don't go off when the turn signal is on. I have some amber LEDs for the front turn signals but ran out of time today. Maybe this weekend.

Which fittings? Catch can or engine? How are they coming loose?

Mr. Grumpy · 10-28-2016, 10:57 PM

I believe he's referring to the plastic fittings that connects the hoses to the catch can.

1BlueSS · 10-29-2016, 12:18 PM

Yes, the plastic fittings that go into the catch can. They keep coming loose. Read about a few people having issues like that, but after a few heat cycles theirs were fine. I have to check mine after the last drive.
