Anyone else addicted to building Lego cars? Don't forget to use the link in the description to enter the giveaway As always thanks so much for the support, we are rockin' and rolling on our weekly schedule, can you guess what is next?
I’m addicted to the lego speed Champions wave so much that I have my own channel on it. Kinda my passion. But sick Camaro! I have a 21’ riverside blue 2ss
Learn from me lads. the front LED are easy. The rear ones are another story. You don't have to remove the wheel for this though. I found this out after i had already spent an hour trying to remove the second rear LED. Above each rear tire there is a t10 screw, you can take it out because of the distance between the tire and the screw. With a small t10 driver, take out the screw. you can then pull the fabric back just enough to get the top clip. To get the bottom clip, go under the car (you don't have to jack it up) and reach up to where the bottom clip is, simply pop it and you're done. Hopefully this helps anyone avoid an hour in the dark.
For badge install, do what we do at our body shop, put a piece of masking tape over the letters, then pull the backing off, easily align the badging, perfectly spaced & aligned like it comes. Super easy to do, same way we remove & reinstall badging when wrapping or repairing a door/fender.
I have that $30 side marker light kit sitting in a box. I was afraid it would make my car look cheap but you are right...the orange looks dreadful. Is there a yellow marker in the front and red in the back turn signals? Or do they both flash a yellow LED for turn signal purposes? I wish you would have finished installing it and lit it up. Lego Cars? How about a model car Camaro SS or ZL1 since you already have an X-acto knife and so do most of us. Just need glue. I think the company is called Revell.
For placing the 1LE decal you could tape over the front and carefully peel off the backing paper to keep all the letters and number spaced together or with an xacto cut out the the letters and number from the backing paper leaving you with a template.
The carbon fiber looks great. I did a couple of other carbon fiber covers throughout the interior of my Camaro too. Big difference for very little money. Great video
I love your vids dude my dad just bought the 2020 ss in shock and he loves it he already has a CAI in it and is about to buy the AWE Track exhaust axle back and he really enjoys these vids aswell
I had a really hard time getting vinyl to stick to the bowties on my first Camaro. On the second one I just taped it off and used plastidip so I had the option of removing it later. Makes a huge difference though.
Mac, Did you really go with the $30 LEDs side markers or Diode Dynamics.... What’s your recommendation for minor scratch repairs from every day driving?
You can get all the mods he showed in his video on your 1LT. You could get a cold air intake and a performance exhaust for your car. That’s what I have on my 1LT
Yeah, I believe so, my current thought is to make the jump to the C8 Z06 once it is released, for now I believe the SS1LE vs the Base C8 will be comparable enough in regards to Lap times, going to be wild though once they give it some more HP
I ordered the diode dynamics side markers and the vinyl for the badges... i saw the lin for the smoked tail lights. I noticed the smoked rear collision avoidance light in the vid... where did you get that? Thanks.
This car doesn't need any of these things you put on it, but it does need more interior storage, like a place to put your phone while driving. Any ideas on this?
Take a piece of tape, put it across the front of it so you can take the back piece off and they all stay the same place. Mark your panel where you want to put it clean your panel. Very clean and put it on. Pull the tape back slowly the letters won't move. They'll go where you want them and it'll look great. 40 years of being a body man
My some what affordable dream car is the camaro ss , so I watch alot of camaro channels on you tube and your car is my favorite SS ...besides Cj on 32s ss but his is a show car and he supercharged it and but a zl1 hood on ect ect but I will say if I ever get my hands on an ss I will be doing most of the same stuff you did to yours , except the zl1 bumper ...just cuz I'm sure it was expensive lol but anyway thanks for all the great videos , cant wait for the next 1!
They are definitely noticeable, for daily driving I actually prefer it; I am taking the car on track in two weeks, after that I am going to decide on if I want to keep them or take them off, & thanks man!
The side markers are also meant for safety, so at night when you car is parked they reflect the headlights and lets people see your car better. With your new side markers you no longer have those reflectors
Why put a fake 1 LE sticker on? I find keeping it the way it was bought instead of throwing on all this made in China crap definitely the way to go, but hey whatever makes you happy 😂
At Some point once I find the right deal, tried negotiating on a few before I bought the SS and couldn't get the price where I felt it would be a fair deal....Since that point the values have dropped exactly where I expected them too, and I am now on the hunt
I was fortunate to find a used one with 400 miles on it in the exact spec I wanted for a killer price. Now I'm going crazy waiting for the Ohio weather to come around.

I replaced the carpet floor mats for some WeatherTech mats. For $138 I think it's worth it.

I honestly never would have thought of that, genius, I will use this for the ZL1 soon!
The carbon fiber looks great. I did a couple of other carbon fiber covers throughout the interior of my Camaro too. Big difference for very little money. Great video
Carbon Fiber is life! Recently got amazing Victor racing wing, top quality...
I did the black vinyl on my bowties and it looks great! Thanks for showing us that :)

Lego and then a Camaro 😍
These lego kits are so addicting hahah
@@macpettit2327 yess
Such a slept on channel. Keep it up bro!!
Ey thanks man, that means a lot! continue to push the car and the channel each week!
I might have miss something in the video. How do you have paddles if it’s a manual not being rude or anything just confused?
I just bought my 2016 Camaro 2SS and I can't remote start without the circle button on my key. How did you start it without the circle button?
Mac,
Did you really go with the $30 LEDs side markers or Diode Dynamics....
What’s your recommendation for minor scratch repairs from every day driving?
I personally went with Diode Dynamics, I like the bit cleaner look of the LED's
Ima have my lil bro build that Camaro lego since hes a pro at building legos, then i might buy it off him or let him keep it.
How did you remote start the manual? Is that the same car with the pedal shifters? Does your car have both? My manual ss doesnt have pedal shifters..
With the magic of editing haha Added the paddles as an aesthetic mod, What year is yours, should have rev matching paddles like mine
I got a 2012 2SS. Just a manual with no paddle shifters' I manually rev match
How are those led side markers ? Are they still working fine ? Brightness stayed the same also....?
I love this video but do you know of anything to get for the 1LT RS I was thinking of getting that car thanks and great video keep it up
You can get all the mods he showed in his video on your 1LT. You could get a cold air intake and a performance exhaust for your car. That’s what I have on my 1LT
I just bought one love the car just need some more sound to it
I opted to put the all-black 1LE badge on the spoiler top right and think it came out pretty slick. Just another option to consider.
I have been heel toeing all my life!it’s nice for something else to do it for me.I use it all the time!!
Fref
How do you have remote start at the beginning of the video? Isn’t it a 6 speed
Great job crashing the drone in the tree 😂
Thanks 😅 Has Battle scars now!
It would be nice to see a comparison review of the focus RS VS the SS1LE. They both seem entirely different worlds
Those anodized aluminum paddle shifters are sweet
Shift paddles
I agree, I think they really add a bit more to the interior!
Wow wow do you have remote start on a manual?
With the magic of Video Editing I do hahah Was wondering if anyone would notice!
just started the video and immediately noticed that and was hoping something new came out to make it possible!
I was automatically like wow I hope he tells us how to remote start our manual trans 😔
You had me tripping
Dope add ons I’ll actually buy the paddle shifter accessory
Same
Would you consider trading in the Camaro for a C8?
Yeah, I believe so, my current thought is to make the jump to the C8 Z06 once it is released, for now I believe the SS1LE vs the Base C8 will be comparable enough in regards to Lap times, going to be wild though once they give it some more HP
Awesome video! Never thought about the paddler shifter mod and orange lights! Thank you and subscribed! Got the same Lego Camaro on my shelf too.
Thank you, really appreciate it!
Can't find the bezel trim. I don't think they have it anymore. The link goes to the carbon fiber trim for the infotainment system
Thanks for letting me know; Once I’m able to update the link tonight I’ll let you know 👍
@@macpettit2327 thanks bro
Link is now updated!
@@macpettit2327 thanks bro
Did the Shift Paddles get in the way while turning?
We can aggree that as a much as it isn't in anyway cheap, bit Victor Racing mod is a def must have
I ordered the diode dynamics side markers and the vinyl for the badges... i saw the lin for the smoked tail lights. I noticed the smoked rear collision avoidance light in the vid... where did you get that? Thanks.
Love your content, from easy stuff to hard,........
This is American Muscle ricing. Jk😂 I wrapped my Chevy emblems too!
This car doesn't need any of these things you put on it, but it does need more interior storage, like a place to put your phone while driving. Any ideas on this?
I regret not doing the zl1 front fascia conversation, when i cracked my front bummer when i hit a construction cone.
Take a piece of tape, put it across the front of it so you can take the back piece off and they all stay the same place. Mark your panel where you want to put it clean your panel. Very clean and put it on. Pull the tape back slowly the letters won't move. They'll go where you want them and it'll look great. 40 years of being a body man

great showmanship
Wtf!!! I checked how many subs you had after I watched this vid and I thought you would have 100k plus. Btw nice drone crash at the end
Thanks a bunch man! Been trying to step up the quality lately!
@@macpettit2327 well keep it up man, I love your positive attitude and editing.
How did you do a remote start with a manual
What year is the Camaro?
Hey Mac, great video! Did the shifter paddle extensions get in the way when driving as you were concerned about?
They are definitely noticeable, for daily driving I actually prefer it; I am taking the car on track in two weeks, after that I am going to decide on if I want to keep them or take them off, & thanks man!
Did you auto-start it in the beginning with a manual????? How????
Great video brother, awesome 1LE.
Thanks man! Really appreciate it, been a blast, and this is only the beginning
what tail lights do you have?
Looking forward to see how you put the ZL1 1LE wing in the SS 1LE.
Wait so paddle shifters on a manual? I’m confused
The paddles are for turning rev matching on and off
Can you drive the car with strictly only paddle shifting ?
I did my side markers with headlight tint for real cheap as well. Another good mod for this video is the 2nd gear skip delete kit for manual cars
Thanks for the items links bro
Anytime!
Where did you bought the bumper?
How did you add remote start on a manual car?
With the Magic of video editing hahah whoops
Love the small mods and they all look great
Great video! Awesome ideas at great prices!
That link for the paddle shifters is for a 2010-2015 camaro bro we need it for the 6th gen😡
Hey Mac, I just moved to the area from Orlando and was wondering if you know of any good groups and events out here.
Hey brother, sorry for late reply, there are no 'groups per say' but the closest I found is the 6th gen 1le owners group on FB
Looks Awesome.
great vid really nice editing
Thanks man, it's really appricaited! Really trying to push the videos to get better week by week
Really good video!
is the remote start aftermarket??
It is with the magic of video editing! lol
Is that center piece real carbon fiber?
It seems to be, with a composite as the base layer, to me it looks really damn close
Another under $50 bucks mod is G2 caliper paint 🎨.
I Hit the 400 likes 👍 nice video bro I have some of those mods already
Ey thanks man I appreciate it!!
Whats the sound track??
Where did u get the zl1 bumper?
Very informative
I use rav match i own a 2021 zl11le
Mac u have a camaro 1LE love it
Thanks man! It's such a blast to drive! And better yet, its the daily hahah
Nice . Looks great 👍 add some to my camaro. Tks
The lego car is the best mod under 50$
Can confirm haha Built one of these and a Lego GT3, so simple yet so much fun
Excellent!
Looking forward to seeing more content 💯
Great content; recent subscriber! I have a 2017 Fifty Camaro SS!
Hell yeah! These 6th gens are so awesome, came over to the SS from a Focus RS, was a welcome change for sure
@@macpettit2327 whats wrong with the focus rs?
I love ur channle bc we have the same car, and its awesome content .
Thanks man I really appreciate it!
Awesome video
Woaaaaa! Majic valve caps for 5$
What kinda rims he got?
Mac what mods can I get for my camaro ss
I personally always like to start out with Wheels and Tires then move on to Aero, Spoilers, Lips, & Sideskirts!
Lol did you free fall your drone at the end?
What is the song
Could have done a $6 can of plasti dip for both emblems and anything else you wanted to black out such as mirrors and antenna fin
I've always had a little trouble using plasti-dip (often my own errors) haha Maybe I will try it on the Antenna and see how it turns out
@@macpettit2327 Super easy, just make sure you mask around it very well, the overspray sucks. Also many light coats is the way to go
I did it but it takes a LOT of coats.
@@gtrance3567 Yes, it should take about 5 or 6 really light ones
I was not aware that you could remote start a manual transmission car...
I mean, with the power of video editing anything is possible haha It's just a audio cut, I wish I could add it!
I would never flex a sticker saying i had something i didnt havd
Can you please fix your sweatshirt strings 😂
😬😬😬
Nice nice
I LOVE LEGO
Did you just fake badge your maro?
The $30 amazon side markers will burn out quick.
LEGO cars are the shit
Xiu BMI
I want the legos
I am Japanese
Where do you get that funding?
The side markers are also meant for safety, so at night when you car is parked they reflect the headlights and lets people see your car better. With your new side markers you no longer have those reflectors
😍👍🏼
🏎💨
Why put a fake 1 LE sticker on?
I find keeping it the way it was bought instead of throwing on all this made in China crap definitely the way to go, but hey whatever makes you happy 😂
get rid of the paddles lol
Just buy a ZL1 1LE
At Some point once I find the right deal, tried negotiating on a few before I bought the SS and couldn't get the price where I felt it would be a fair deal....Since that point the values have dropped exactly where I expected them too, and I am now on the hunt
I was fortunate to find a used one with 400 miles on it in the exact spec I wanted for a killer price. Now I'm going crazy waiting for the Ohio weather to come around.
$20k more is a lot, but if you can afford it, more power to you.
