Thanks fellas, sweet indeed.

Moving right along, the Camaro is now back on it's own legs, and Bob took the opportunity to give it a final back rub. It looks great at this ride height but to optimize the ExtReme suspension geometry the car will drop another slightly over another 1" for a killer slammed look. Karl really digs the Black Chrome and the modern offset look on wheels so he went with these Forgeline beauties to wrap the 335s around. Also check out the LED taillights, man these things are nice!

I happen to like the ones with the back-up lens too. I don't see a lot of guys with that option.

Thanks!!

More progress on the engine bay and interior. A good portion of that wiring goes to this custom dash Jeremy did a great job with. Speedhut gauges mount along with lighting controls Vintage Air HVAC controls and some totally trick billet honeycomb vents that match that design element that's throughout the car. Lots of fluid cooling was necessary since this car is meant to maintain high speeds for long distances. That dry sump oiling looks right at home too.

Love it and it is starting to look very sinister.

Thanks! We think so too.

With the engine bay mostly complete exhaust routing was next on the check list. We always use a universal fit stainless kit and custom fab everything so it's tight to the car, looks good and maintains flow velocity better than a crimp and go muffler shop system. Kar'ls Camaro uses 3" tubing with slip fit collectors and exits right below the valance.
