What are some must have 6th gen Camaro accessories?

What accessories can I buy from Amazon, Autozone, the dealer, etc, that are not too expensive, but really come in handy, make life easier, or even just look cool, for the Camaro?

Blackout LED markers/signals, or be a cheapskate like me and do the film

I got it on my fronts, rear, tail lamps and third brake lights... that and some black license plates to complete the look... maybe totally of $50/60

Looks great on redhot but I suspect it would look good on any color

LED bulbs for the license plate and reverse lights.

It is overpriced and extremely small but it holds a couple bottles of detail spray and microfiber towels which I like to carry with me at all times without them rolling around the trunk. I would NEVER have purchased it but it was included in the window sticker of the car I bought. Turns out I have made good use of it. I do agree it is pretty useless for most Camaro owners.

Mine came with the net, too. I keep my NoviStretch in there. Which gets to my contribution to this list. If you do much highway driving and you don't plan to spend the money on an invisible bra treatment or ceramic, get the NoviStretch bra. Looks good and protects from bugs and small rocks / gravel. Here's a link to the site. You can get from Amazon, but when I ordered mine directly from NoviStretch, they included mirror covers for the same price as buying just the bra from Amazon. They're currently on backorder, though.

Also suggest a ProClips cell phone holder, especially if you use CarPlay / Android Auto a lot. Provides a nice place to put your phone.

The cargo net is worthless for sure. I am gonna say the ZL1 rock guards, the bolt on jack points as well.

Is it a nice solid mount? Hard to tell from the pic of the camaro on their site. I'd be interested in this as the in-cabin storage is terrible on our cars.

I've only had my car for 3 weeks but so far, courtesy of the forum, I've found these (lack of interior storage):

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I drilled out the driver's side, ran my iPhone cable from the center console in attached a PopSocket clip on the inside to mate with the PopSockit on my iPhone case. Holds it nice and secure right up against the side of the pocket.

I also have on order the ZL1Addons Deluxe rock guards and the jack pads:

Jack pads

Last for me so far was my BlendMount Valentine One mirror mounting bracket.

Maybe, if they'd make a set for the ZL1 that doesn't look like the cut them out of old truck flaps... rock chips look nicer.

Agree with the cell phone mount.
A must-have for me.
