Default Saturday Detail Job: 1998 Camaro Z28

Well this was my one weekend off of work, and it wasn't raining for once. It wasn't as warm as I would've liked (high of 41 LOL) but the sun was peeking out, and I knew it was my only weekend to play with the car. I got it out of the garage early and detailed it front to back, and inside and out. I was hoping to put my new drilled and slotted rotors on today too, but ran out of time and decided I'd rather take it for a drive than spend the rest of the evening doing brakes, so pay no attention to the disgusting stock rusted brakes. I used a Mothers wax, back to black on some of the trim. Still have some to finish up. After the first picture, I couldn't take that stock grilled, so I pulled it out so there's no more gay license plate bracket. Going to rock the bare look until my new SLP grille shows up. I also just painted a Berger panel I bought a while back for it. I have a set of stainless steel Camaro inserts and a LS1 emblem, but the paint was only a few hours old at that point and I slapped it in there for pictures, so didn't want to attempt putting them in yet.

Not a big fan of bare Camaros, but I REALLY like what you've done to that car even the way it looks now. It'll only get better!

Figured I'd zap you here too. BTW, how the hell did you get stuck with the gay farm license plate? Thought they were getting rid of those horrible pieces of ****. You transfer it over from something else?

Just got them Friday. I asked if I had any options and they said that's the only choice at the moment.

I heard they were coming out with a new plate. They were going to try to force everyone with the "tan bottomed" plate and the red/white/blue "sunburst" plate to go to a newer plate, probably the gay farm one since this was last year when I read this news. Bullshit I say!! I like my Collectors Plate. Got a link to the new plate design?

It looks like they went with a nice simple design this time unlike the last plate.

Didn't last long...woke up to 5" of snow today. What a lovely winter we're having this spring.
