Camaro Christmas Gift Ideas

Hey guys, my brother and I both own Camaro's. His is spec'd out, the exterior is silver with black accents and carbon fiber everywhere (diffuser, skirts, carbon addons etc.) The interior also has carbon tastefully applied, I am trying to start a forum where some christmas ideas come up because I have no idea what to get him. I was thinking the "fifty" dash overlay because his car has orange accents and it is also a fifty, and some carbon bits that he doesn't have. Any other good ideas?

A quality radar detector or dash cam. Sport pedal covers. Black heritage badge. Or, if you're looking for something even more affordable, a cell phone mount, or velcro attached phone storage nets (I love mine).

On the interior side I've done stupid little things like radio bezel plaque, steering wheel emblem, visor overlay, nicer floor mats, cupholder inserts, aluminum pedal overlays, etc...It all adds up to create a noticeable different look

I would agree with the radar detector idea if the budget allows, preferably with the Gen5DIY radar detector harness to make the wiring clean.

I am personally hesitant on the sport pedal covers. They are cool, except they don't include the dead pedal and that's a bit of a turnoff for me. Not sure how big of a deal it is to others.

The fender badges are also a great idea. They are available in black or chrome for different tastes. I used the black ones to match the other 1LE elements.

Great ideas. Which cell phone net is that?

This one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GXL2KZT, $10 for a pair.

The included double sided tape is garbage. Instead, I peeled them off and bought some velcro that I needed for other projects anyway, and that holds the net perfectly in place, it won't budge even when I dump the phone into it.

Thank you. How big is your phone, will it hold bigger phones? I want to do the same. I have an iPhone 7+.

The opening is about 7" wide, and my phone is 5.75" tall. I'd say about a quarter, maybe half an inch longer is still okay, beyond that you'll have a hard time removing the phone from the net when you exit the car. If you have a thick case for your iPhone 7+, it's a no go, but the phone itself will fit.

(Most negative reviews criticize the tape, which is a fair point, it's weak even for plastic surfaces let alone the carpeting where I attached the net, but I knew I was gonna use velcro anyway.)
