PICS: Ta lowered and new console installed Just thought I would post up a few new pics of the car. Finally got it lowered (specs are in sig) and got the new center console Iv been working on over the winter in (looks amazing in person). The pics are kinda crappy but you get the point. Let me know what you think.
STOCK CONSOLE
AFTER FLIPPING THE SWITCH BEZEL AND GAUGE INSTALL
THE FINISHED PRODUCT
two toggles switches: one for the fan switch the other is nothing right now...soon to be cutout hopfully.
NEXT UP...NEW WHEELS AND HOOD

NICE work on the consol man, looks great/clean/factory with a hint of custom, just what I like 
The drop is perfect, not slammed, but not a 4x4, exactly what I am looking for. Would you mind pming me some details on the springs and where you got them? Hows the ride? I know you said amazing, but is it harsher?

I know you said amazing, but is it harsher? Is the first pic before the springs? The rear on your car did not drop much if it is after the install? Mine dropped more than that with Hotchkis. Might be the 16" wheels or the angle throwing it off. Nice work on the console. Suggestion for the other switch....NO2

Nice job!

thanks for the comments guys....and heres some more info.
The hotchkis springs did lower the car 1 inch all the way around...in the first pic i think the angle makes it look a lot less (plus the stock craptacular wheels dont help). The second pic def shows its been lowered.
Got the springs at sfxperfomance...was the cheapest place i found them at...got them 4 days later. Got the Koni SA shocks from where else...strano. It rides much stiffer but not to were the interior is falling apart...just very firm and precise.
As for the mystery of the disappearing pontiac logo...well that was easy. I accually bought a replacement bezel from gmparts direct which was perfect because the replacments dont come with logos on them. Cost like 10$.The only problem was that the new bezel mounting for the TC switch didnt work with my old one. A little grinding and some really small screws and there ya have it. Just Used the original as a templete. Let me tell you...its a tight fit behind that switch bezel.
As for the camaro shifter. I shortened the shifter shaft about and inch and just removed the leather of the camaro shifter and popped it on. Needs new paint to match better but its ok for now.
