Painting calipers G2 red and then getting rims powder coated gloss black though I may wait for spring, not sure...

Also need to do something about front plate bracket. My state mandates it, car did came with that LPO bracket but dealer left it in the trunk.

I'm in love with your car haha. Red hot is definitely the best way to go. It took me four months to find exactly what I wanted that matched my price range. It was the greatest feeling when it all finally came together :p

I hear ya, I also waited and looked all over the place to get the color and options I wanted - compromise on other things in life but not on a Camaro

Yea, do the G2. I did, it was easy. 3 coats covered it well with some left over. Buy disposable application brushes at the box store as the one's that come in the kit are crap. I bought the Brembo hi-temp stickers on amazon.

I also had to do something for the front plate, so I bought the Sto n Sho. Works well & easy to install. I also live in a state that requires it, but bought out of state, so it didn't come with anything. I mounted a curb alert sensor on the flat metal bracket underneath where it attached to the car.

Yes, got the G2 from amazon and a few extra brushes. I'll look into Sto n Sho.

I just wanted to leave a positive feedback for trunkmonkeyparts.com, they are one of the sponsors here. I bought GFX, stripes, black bowties and knee pads and couldn't be more satisfied in my interaction with them

Wait they wouldn't let you have your plate on with a sto-n-sho? WHAT?!?!?!?!

Also yes.. the rear diffuser for the body kit was a PITA, have any wrap around pics of what it looks like up close?

If you have the sto n show & you have the plate mounted, wouldn't they just tick off the box on their check sheet saying you had the front plate mounted? Here in Oregon, all they care is that I had it visible & mounted.

Good to hear the shot out for Trunk Monkey parts. They are close to where I live. It's part of Suburban Chevy in Sandy OR.

I had the plate mounted on the bracket and bracket zip tied to the grill. He insisted that bracket need to be 'securely mounted' on the bumper. I wanted to pull the car out from his bay but he won't allow that without putting R(restricted) sticker on my windshield

Beautiful Camaro, glad you are doing all the gfx etc yourself. Something satisfying about it all your own. I'm a fan of red hot, new ZL1 coming soon. Keep up the great work!

I re-looked at the bracket and its not screwed to the bumper but the black top outline on the grill. I'll certainly be removing that and installing the sto n sho.

I also want to get the silver rims powder coated to gloss black, not sure if wants to get that done now or wait for spring time. Forecast for Boston area is cold from this Sunday and may have to winterize the Camaro...had a good 50's run for last two weeks.
