Default Our latest Camaro project - 2011 SS convertible

Here are the results of 1 month of hard work! We built the car to be featured in the Magna Charger booth at all 7 cities of the Hotrod Magazine Power Tour coming up in the first week of June. Custom paint, and a lot of parts to install. This is my wife's daily driver, her favorite color is red.

100% of the modifications (other than paint) were done at my shop by me and my buddies. And beer. Good times!

Very well done Tony (as usual). Lisa should be proud.

Black out the tails to go with the flat black imo.

I like the red tails, the car is red. Didn't want the entire rear all black. On a black car I'd have done that though.

I've tried really hard to like the new Camaros... I just can't. Everything looks pretty tasteful though.
