Inside: the inside I have only done a few things. I put in a full alpine audio system upgrade with a Jensen headunit. Also has 2 alpine 12 inch subs with a alpine 500 watt amp. The only other thing I have done is I bought custom floor mats from afterthoughtsauto.com. They are specially made for our year of camaros. Plus I contacted the and they made mine just like the new floor mats in the 2010 camaro with the word camaro on the front and the outline of the chevy emblem on the back floor mats



Future: I wanna do an ls1 or an ls2 engine swap sometime in the future. Also I plan on purchasing a set of black 18 inch c6 corvette rims with a chrome lip.

This car is my daily driver and where I live I'm constantly getting pulled over by cops. But I love my car too much and I wouldn't have it any other way

OK seriously here dont do this unless you are willing to buy a complete (ie not yet parted out) Z28 and swap 99% of the Z over to your car. Just buy an LS1 car if you want an LS1. Go to the V6 forum and check out the swap thread. About 5 or 6 pages in I posted a quicky on how the swap happens.

How much do you think a 99% swap will cost?

the 99% swap is everything but the body, carpet, seats and headliner. Trust me here when I say it will take 100% of the cost of a wrecked and not yet parted out Z28 car to make this happen. Just buy a Z28 for the least expense. My Wife's car is not the one that got the swap done to it. But I can show you any way.

I always liked the idea of doing swaps on cars cuz I felt it will being u closer to your ride do to speak. But there are alot of problems that can arise by swapping. unless you have the time and the money it won't be worth it because of the complications

you also have to consider that your insurance will be for the V6 car and even tho having the V8 improves the value you will still only get paid out V6 rates for the car if something happens. Just think if the car is wrecked and it tanks the engine too... Oh well you still only get V6 value and you cant even use the V8 engine. Many times I have seen cars total due to broken engine blocks.
