For the SRI, assemble the whole intake and heat shield before bolting anything to the car. Leave the nuts on the rubber studs loose for adjustment of the heat shield. Unplug your battery before you install or it will throw a code and you'll need to unplug it to reset it anyways.

Ok, I got the front & rear bowties done.

This is the Anthracite Grey Metallic, but I am debating adding a glossifier to it

 

[EcoDave]

Is that a paint chip under the rear spoiler?

You're going to want to set aside a good 5 hours for that amp and sub install, maybe 6. Just a heads up.

Is your car black granite? How does it match the paint color? I was thinking of using that color on my wheels

No, it is left over goop from the blue tape.

Yeah, I have done many many installs, so I am familiar with the times. I have used the GM PAC kits before as well.
I really appreciate the feedback!

Thanks, I usually "tinker" with all my vehicles. I miss my old Tiburon and TransAm though.

Taupe Grey Metallic actually, and it is not a perfect match, but it is kinda close. I think a gloss will help

SRI is in, and I am loving it so far. I have also seen an increase in MPG, even though I tend to be heavy footed...

The Wheel Bowties are gonna have to wait. I did one as a test and I really don't like how it comes out, as it is difficult to pull the tape and separate the parts I want to keep. I might have to go with vinyls or just leave em gold. The rest I still plan to get to this weekend.

Gotta wait on the spark plugs as well, as I cannot seem to locate my 6-point sockets, or my plug socket.

The PAC didn't arrive yet, so I won't be doing the AMP & Sub yet either.

Cruze Badge done & eco Badge removed

 

[brian v]

to the tail end of cruze on the IT because IT is special !

 

[NYCruze2012]

I want to do mine but i have the seraph orange metallic color and i can only think to do them in black or carbon fiber. i may trade mine in for a white 1.4t soon though then that will open up some options

Platidip does have an Orange Blaze. I have not seen the Seraph Orange in person, so I don't know how well it will match, but if there is a Dip installer near you,they might have an example you can check out.

thanks i'll look into it. The orange i have is more of what i consider a rust color not so much a bright orange.

Probably something close to the SOM that came on the 4th gen TransAms. The blaze is probably going to be bright and not match, but there still might be something. Ask someone who deals/installs Plastidip and they might have suggestions. You can always check out the forums at dipyourcar.com as well.
