Thanks everyone another quick update. Got my billet grille installed and painted the area behind it gloss black, came out very nicely. Tomorrow a package arrives from ws6store with my LCA relocation brackets, Camaro letter inserts for the berger panel, and...WINDOW MOTORS! No more slow windows. On the down side, I had a bit of a brake issue today while going over a long bridge, the top caliper bracket bolt removed itself from the hub and made my caliper fall forward into my wheel while driving. Good thing my buddy had a spare bolt that happened to fit. Only damage was a few dings in the caliper and grooves where the caliper was grinding on my inner wheel.

Probably the pic, or the fact that they are set at a slight angle so they dont sit straight with each other

Update today! (Well yesterday) I filled the bottle and sprayed the car for the first time, felt good Even for a 50 shot I felt the car pick up and move faster. Although I blew a fuse which ruined my spray fun for the night. On the bright side I got a Go Pro HD Hero camera for my birthday So maybe I'll grab some video while cruising to camaro nationals/ gm nationals friday-sunday.

Just got back from GM nationals, quite an eventful weekend. Ran my car at their local 1/8th mile track for the first time on the bottle and went a second faster in the 1/8th than my baseline N/A run

Stats:
60': 2.08 (street tires)
330': 6.24
1/8th: 9.8
MPH: 70

Here's a video just testing out the Go Pro.

Secondly I bought a set of upper and lower tubular control arms from UMI. Just waiting on the Moog upper ball joints to come in at my local advance auto.

And lastly I came home with 2 awards
Award of Excellence for Modified 4th gen
