Filled up my gas tank today at $3.88/gallon. Thats the most I've paid for a full tank since I got it May of 2011. Over $70... although I'm sure some of you are paying more. I got 18.71 MPG on this last tank, not too bad for some spirited driving and 4 passes at the drag strip.
Also just installed my Evo-R Carbon Fiber Diffuser tonight. We could of had it installed in literally 10 minutes just drilling screws in the 5 pre-drilled holes that were there from the previous owner of the Diffuser but I swore you had to remove the fog light and install it back over the Diffuser..... Needless to say I couldn't have been more wrong and we put the Diffuser on just to find out when we tried to put the fog light back in it didn't fit in the diffusers cut out so we put the whole fog light assembly back together and had it back on in a matter of minutes. Reassembling the fog light was a PITA! first of all I lost one of the four pop clips cause it flew on top of the muffler when I popped it out and couldn't reach it and it didn't fall after moving the car a little in an effort to get it to slide off the muffler. Second of all those pop clips just suck. Thirdly I had no idea that one of them (the one holding the bottom of the metal plate to the bumper) was larger than the others and put one of the smaller clips in the larger ones place and then had to take it out because it wasn't in tight and was wiggling around cause it wasn't even the right size. All in all the fog light could have been avoided but I just thought you had to have it installed back over the diffuser, so, just learn from my mistakes. I'll post pictures of it tomorrow.

Also We just got our Camaro back from WhiteSide Customs! It sits much lower than before, looks AMAZING in person. Now, I know we're all Z car lovers here, but this thing is looking pretty good on these BC BR's and handles ten times better with those along with WhiteLine front and rear Sway Bars and upgraded Bushings. We also had them install the Hurst short throw shifter I got her (my GF) for christmas that we've been putting off cause we don't have a lift and they practically installed it for free with all the other work we had done.
This thing is sooo much fun I've got some catching up to do performance wise with the Z. I'm getting jealous! Vossen is even contacting her through the camaro5 forum saying it looks really good and that once we lowered it they would come out for a professional Photo/Video shoot of the car for their website! I'm super stoked, although I don't think these pictures I take and edit look too bad either lol. You tell me

lol sorry on the rear diffuser install
And the Camaro is looking pretty good! I wanted one (for a few weeks) before I decided on the Z. And I like the panning shot at the track!

I like it. Fitment is close to perfect except for a 1/4" gap on the upper right that spans about 4". I need to use some 3M tape or something. Might wait until I get my fog light though to do that.
Yeah I love driving hers around and letting her take the Z. The Camaro once getting used to it has a lot less blind spots despite the tiny windows and is a lot of fun to drive. She took that photo at Texas Motorplex over the weekend. The other car, a charger, was already out in front cause this was the run I forgot to roll my windows up until the last second. Thanks!

Haha yeah BC's on the Z as well in the near future. I'm ordering a custom plate next week, Which probably means over a month till I get it. By that time it may already be lowered.

Both cars are looking great! Camaro isn't really in a color i like, but it looks like a badass either way.

Thanks. The color of the camaro in that last pic is off by a little. I'll have to post another. But yeah it definitely gets more looks than the Z just because it's bright green and HUGE!
