Where did you get the holders in between the seats and the center console?

From Amazon. They are very handy since the Camaro has basically zero storage,

Cool. Does it fit in between tight enough to not slip out?

Mods

Sport pedals, blackout vinyl on side markers, replace red ss with dark gray, remove front fender badge, lloyds floor mats, switched star shaped center cap for round one on wheels...now, what's next? Carbon fiber splitter and side skirts !!! Anyone put the front fender emblem in another spot? I liked it on my silver car, but sticks out too much on this one.

Yes, though I did add a couple of these Velcro strips to each one to secure them better in fast cornering !

Nice, tasteful mods. Good looking car!

Why not swap out the tail lights and 3rd brake light with the smoked OEM ones to complete your blackout look ?

Ownership ritual completed

Finally, after a month (darn landscaping projects) I have completed my ownership ritual of:
  • Fresh oil and filter
  • Drain and fill of transmission fluid
  • Drain and fill of differential fluid
  • Fresh street brake pads (Powerstop Z26 to cut down on dust and save stock pads for track)
  • Fresh brake/clutch fluid

Sidenote: second picture shows just how stiff this chassis is and how uneven my garage floor is. With all jackstands at the same height only 3 are in contact with the jack pads. I've lifted quite a few cars in this garage and this is the first time I have seen this. Quite a testament to the stiffness of the Alpha chassis.

I have a question...How do I lift the car with a jack at the jack point and then place a jack stand at the same jack point?

There are two at the front. Jack on one, then stand on the other.

I did have a look at those. They aren't really a dark smoke so there's a lighter greyish tint to them which introduces another color. I do like the red/black combo which is why I didn't black out the rear side markers.

Makes sense. Looks great.
