I am for the matte interior look as well.
The shine to me just makes the interior look greasy/plastic/cheap.
Everyone has their own taste

I like what you have going on with the exterior! Whistler looks good on black cars, black out turn signals, chrome c5 z06s are a nice touch and that car is slammmmmed.

I can't wait for the cme either. I've been wanting to do this forever haha
yeahh I'm not really a fan of billet grills either until I saw the one I have for a killer deal and it was powder coated black with SS in the center. Got it to tide me over for the SLP and ended up liking it better.

The CME will probably be your top 2 favorite visual mods it looks awesome I couldn't stop staring at my car after I did it.

Thanks, all those little touches are finally done. haha. Ive never gotten that slammed comment before but my car is lower then most. funny thing is, is that i have hotchkis springs which advertise a 1" drop.

thanks buddy.

the barn i believe is a 20x20 with a little deck on the outside (my dad wishes he went bigger). the lift im not sure on the brand, ill have to go look at it haha. but yes i would recommend it to anybody. we have had it going on about 5 years now and its the best tool we have. we have built 2 camaro's on it and done all my mods on it. it REALLY comes in handy.

Damn, you beat me to it. haha im still waiting for my body guy to finish the valance before i have it welded up. im going to go home install it and drive straight to my exhaust guy to have it welded up. haha. he painted it and cleared it, he just wants to sand and clear one more time.

but i ended up ordering a cam so im going to start to tear down the motor on sunday so i may not be able to have the exhaust welded up till i finish the cam the middle of next week

did you get lucky and find one with the red ss badges?

yeah im interested to see how much it changes the sound going though the magnaflow compared to before.

i went with a 228r 112 LSA, didnt want anything too radical. something that didnt require revving the motor too high and made plenty torque everywhere.

sounds good. im sure the badges are the exact same as the ones on the body of the car. or so it seemed when i installed them on the grill.

you will notice a difference in sound you will see. you will be happy aswell trust me.

nice man that sounds like a good cam.

yea the badges are the same ones as the ones we have in our cars on the sides and rear. i was thinking of ordering a set with the silver outline but i was like nah ill just leave the stock red ones. ill have pics of the grill next week and possibly this weekend ill have pics of the cme valance hopefully it doesnt rain much tomorrow
