<Car image to come>

Vehicle: 2016 Camaro 2SS
Color: Summit White Exterior & Jet Black Interior
Transmission: A8 Auto
Options: NPP, MRC, Black Bow Ties, 5 Split-Spoke black rims.

Upgrades Ordered:
- GM 2016 Front Splitter Black
- Bulb replacement with LED's (Reverse lights, license plate lights)

Near Future Upgrades:
- GM 2016 Rear Diffuser Black
- GM 2016 Side Skirts Black (not 100% sure if I will install these right away)
- Carbon Fiber Wrapped Splitter
- Carbon Fiber Wrapped Diffuser (might do a 1/2 and 1/2 look, as I am not sure how the CF will look around the full rear)
- Carbon Fiber Wrapped Spoiler (for now, until I get a new spoiler)
- Carbon Fiber Wrapped Hood Inserts
- Spoiler (Aftermarket or Z* variant once available)
- Black Wrapped Side Mirrors or I will be buying new side mirror shells in black
- Tinted Windows
- Paint the clear plastic holding pink liquids black
- Pilot Super Sport Tires for my non LPO rims


Future Upgrade Ambitions:
- BBK Headers (Most likely Longtube)
- GM 2016 Camaro Intake (OR 3rd party that is better)
- GM Lowering Springs (MRC compatible offering once available)
- Engine bay upgrades (Polished Aluminum & Carbon Fiber)
- Slotted & Drilled Rotors
- Cam, Rod, and Pistons Upgrades (Once she is beyond warranty)
- MSD AirForce Intake (or similar)
- Ported Throttle Body (Potentially a bigger throttle body as well)


I was checking your vin, mines 117295 and I'm still waiting as well. On a train due at the rail yard on the 24th and delivery the week of the 28th. GM really screwed over the pre-order buyers this time.

Nice. Are you planning on doing a little write up of the install?

I will be doing a wrap on my mirrors as well. Probably the spoiler too.
Still have to think about the hood, I ordered the black hash marks.

One wrap I have seen is white carbon fibre. I will research that more, it might look unique.

Its gonna look awsome. I will be following your build for sure.
Congratulations.

I might reconsider the carbon fiber at this point and just do gloss black... now that I have the car, I have to see. Going to the wrap place tomorrow.

A satin or semi gloss could look good too. Glad you got your car!

The car still has a messed up clear coat, so I haven't taken really good images. I did get the windows tinted today.

My car has some scuffing in the clear as well , my dealer is having it professionally buffed out for me at no charge was disappointed with the overall finish when my car was delivered to the dealer . I seen my car about a hour after delivery and couldn't believe they got the car the way it was . They did a great job cleaning and preparing the paint, but the sales manager insisted he send my car to a professional to buff the paint . Everyone at the dealership was amazed with the color and was proud to see me get my car , I had a very bad experience with my 2015 high country duramax that I traded for my camaro.

Just got done watching your tutorial on YouTube. I was on the fence about doing this mod but now that I watched you do it and how easy it was, I might pull the trigger. Great job! I see that you're in SoCal also. Congrats on finally getting your ride. Your build is coming along nicely.

Slowly but surely and thanks. Just have to wait for the clear coat to get fixed by the dealer before I can do my wraps etc... the wait is good, forcing me to enjoy the stock look a bit longer.
