Default E Brake Handle
Hey guys. I've been looking around for a while and hadn't found any billet e-brake handles out there for the Camaro. I saw where someone had put a momo handle on but I wanted a billet one. Anyway, after a few hours of work and contemplation I figured I'd show you guys the end results. Enjoy.

looks good. i think if you can figure out a way to transition it better onto the e-brake shaft or whatever it's called it, it will look even better.

a vinyl or leather boot to cover the rest of the handle would make it look nice.

As it is, it kinda looks like a c****m slipped on over a c**k. Needs to make a smoother transition.

Thanks for all the complements. Haha already got the jokes from a few buddies. I had to take the stock handle off...stupid rivet. the e brake assembly is flat and the new handle is round on the inside. So I used to pieces of fuel line and cut them in half and placed them on the top and bottom of the assembly, then wrapped them in electrical tape. Guess that is what looks like the stock handle. Fits on there pretty snug. Deff agree on the leather boot. That will be added soon and clean it up.

After dealing with replacing a powered window motor i love them too. It's well worth the occasional inconvenience IMHO compared to replacing the window motor.

Default MBA Pedals
Added MBA pedals today. These are the 3rd gen pedals so I had to do a little modification. Think they turned out alright. Now I just need an e-brake boot to prevent anymore jokes
