Bought the Camaro Floor mats with the orange trim to match the car, and also, installed color matched molded splash guards all the way around. Next is to install the Ipod adaptor, which I guess I'll let Chevy do because the radio has to be re programmed.

Last week i replaced the rear shocks...way easier than i thought. Yesterday i replaced the rear diff gasket, checked the gears, and added new oil. Oh, also replaced the battery and trunk lock if those even count.

how hard is it to replace the rear shocks? could i do it with just a jack and two stands?

And today i re-painted my door panels (looks real sharp) and the inner door handle bezel!

Rear shocks are pretty easy,yeah a jack and even 1 stand would work fine,just take one wheel off at a time,then it's just 2 bolts at the top of the shock,and the nut on the bottom.

I had no idea what to do so i just jumped right in. yea i just jacked the car up put the jack stands on the axle, took the wheel off so i could access it easier. It is pretty straight forward. way easier than you would think. It was my first time doing anything suspension related. I watched a few youtube videos first to get an idea of what i was doing. I just got some shocks from o'reilly autoparts.

Fixed my glove box (broken handle), did a good interior clean and detail under the hood. Also looked at K&N cold air intake for when I get the money
