Very nice and tasteful modifications. I'm digging how this project is coming together!

Thank you.

I got a lot done Friday night. Finished the right bumper recess then moved onto other tasks. I cut the seams for both quarters to tail panel then hammer and dollied the area to fit better then it was. After I was happy with the fitment I welded the seams for a cleaner look.




I also filled the factory emblem holes then hammer and dollied the area and metal finished it.


Saturday I wasn't feeling like working on the car, but I got the Ring Brothers trunk hinges mounted so I could start fitting the deck lit to fix the gaps. Sorry, I forgot to get a picture. I also added some safety to the car in the form of a C6 3rd brake lamp. Lots of measuring, remeasuring, cutting, hand filing, and hand sanding. I'm pretty happy with how it came out though.

Man I really like that bumper treatment. That's very sharp. Nicely done.

Thanks, I'm pretty happy with how it came out as well.

I really like the 3rd brake light in the rear spoiler . . . nicely integrated! I almost hate to say it but kind of disappointed with all the CF on your camaro after seeing your metal working skills. Nice updates and looking forward to seeing this one in person some day as a fellow Texan.

Thank you. No worries, carbon cuts and grinds easier then metal lol. I will say though, I think I'd find it easier to cut up metal than the carbon. Easier to fix if I mess up for me. Maybe not when I learn more about working it.

I've been working on the car more than pictures show and taking care of a few non car related things along with a problem with Anvil's warped deck lid. They are gonna make it right so I'm able to cross that problem off my list.

I got the vintage air mock up case mounted. It fit better with the modified firewall than I thought it would.


I've sanded about 90% of the EDP coating off the car.


I also picked up Marquez Design door panels from a fellow Lat-g member. They for sure need some work to fit right.


Hopefully I'll get more done this week. I feel like I'm stalled and not getting anything done.
