I have the same issue with mine, but you really can't tell unless you get up close and really take a good look at it. The Cyber Gray Metallic really hides the blemishes well. I have bad paint shadowing under my side stripes, some front paint chips, and my hood has quite a few bird crap etchings into the clearcoat (wrapped now) - all due to neglect from the previous owner. Eventually I want to get a respray in the factory CGM, but I have a list of desired mods as long as my arm.

When washed and detailed it really cleans up well and looks amazing though.

Oil change. 2300 miles since this time last year. Outrageous mileage compared to my wife's car, which saw 1200. 250 of that was a Spring Break outing last month. I also did my truck, which did have 4700 since last time and it gets changed every 6 months as opposed to annually like the other two.

Synthetic across the board, ran me right at $130 including filters.

Changed my oil today (Amsoil Z-Rod 10w-30) and also emptied the catch can. Then I spent a few hours totally gutting the rear interior for my new JBL GTO690 6x9s and HiFonics 4 channel amp. I removed all the rear trim, rear seats, and front seats.

I swear, whoever designed the rear interior of this car and the way that the package tray fits is deserving of a meaty beatdown. I couldn't imagine doing this without removing the front seats for extra room. My body is killing me and I am not even halfway done with this project.

Ordered coolant and new belts since the belts on it appear to be the original ones that came on car and are GM branded . Better safe than sorry as I don't know the service history of the car .

If anyone is looking for shocks and struts I will have a set soon.

A set of Koni orange. I have 1 LE's on the way as I'm doing an upgraded FE4 conversion.

Oil change with Driven LS30 and a new tune from GPI to hit the track tomorrow if it dries out

Danial · 04-16-2021, 11:04 PM

I hit 127 mph. Passing. That's what I did today.

LCPLPunk · 04-17-2021, 08:11 AM

I've thought about my car today...

I pulled her out of the garage and gave her a quick bath then straight back in to the garage. Had to take the kids to soccer and don’t need dirty muddy cleats stains all over my rug.

romcjr · 04-17-2021, 04:43 PM

Drained and refilled radiator with new coolant . First time to have front wheels off , so cleaned up the wheel wells , cleaned crud off inside of wheels and checked brake pads .

At the risk of retaliation , can someone tell me what the round things on the rear of the caliper are for . I've never seen those before . I've also never had Brembo brakes . Thanks

“Roller skates”. They keep the noise down. Google roller skates, camaro and you’ll get plenty of info.

For reasons too long too explain my spare key is with my neighbors (who were not home today) and my wife heads out with a friend to do some shopping. Great I can spend the day with my Camaro. I went to get my keys and no can find. I cut the lawn and go back to looking for the keys. I came straight home and thought I put the keys in the usual place. Spent the next couple of hours , yes I said hours, looking. Very long story made short, wife came home I asked if she had seen the keys........sorry honey Traci (her friend) wanted to drive and I grabbed your keys by mistake.......CRAP. Hope you all had a nice day with yours
