Those are some really nice photo shots. I would say some of the best I’ve seen to bring out that color. I looked at quite a few SS all different colors when I was looking. But when I found my SLIHRM if it wasn’t for the VIN # I would have swore it was a different car from the pics and in person. And the 6MT was a great bonus too.
Thanks!

I’ve been scoping out a building next to my work to take some simple shots at and when I left work the lighting was just about perfect so I quick pulled in and snapped a few.

This was on my iPhone XS and some minor photo editing/enhancement. Plus I sealed/waxed it recently and it’s shining like a new penny.

I can't believe it's been over a year since someone has posted here in the SLIHRM photos.....to break the gap I wanted to share my new to me trade I recently picked up in February. A 2015 w/ ~21k miles.

It had been two years and a couple of other vehicles between since I had traded my 2014 SIM. My 14 was not my DD but this 2015 is and until this recent 'work from home' stint, I looked forward to driving it everyday. Now, just an essential run to store or to transport my kids with a nice getaway drive in between is current duty.

Just a few easy mods to start; blacked-out side vents and Chevrolet center-caps......as well as resonator delete. I think I had learned by some of the more wasteful vs. tasteful mods on my previous SS as to what I value and based on how I use the car.

5 out of the last 6 vehicles for me have been a silver of some type so this color is really 'wild' for me. I had honestly forgotten about the level of positive attention that this car receives....compared to my previous Camaro and CTS-V coupe which seemed to incite more vehicular rage and street challenges from other sports cars. This one as did my 14, seems to garner more appreciation, thumbs ups and gaping stares.

A handful of SSs here in Springfield MO area nowadays as opposed to just a couple back when I had my 14. I have also recently seen what looked to be my SLIRHM 2015 'twin' with holden conversion. I literally heard the car pull out from a parking lot from a distance and could tell what it was prior to catching up to it from behind. Wondering if it's someone on SSForums...

Anyway - glad to be back so to speak; even though I never left this great forum.

Got to post a few of the SLIHRM since I added a few of my APM in that thread. The Heron White is getting detailed and ceramic coated. As if a plain white car can compete against these 2 on a sunny day.:cool:

Winter returned this week for one last hurrah (we hope); 71 degrees on Monday and a couple of inches of snow on Tuesday.....in the low 30s most of the day. Classic Missouri Ozarks extremes; 81 degrees forecasted next Monday. Before the cold front I swapped on my stock wheels with A/S tires Monday. Such a different look with the polished wheels and SLIHRM in the shade.

I haven't posted mine here. Debating to completely black out the front. Not sure...I don't dislike the chrome. I've changed to the holden grill. I have the black drls (pick up this week) and just got the black grill surround today .....not sure......

Other than black or chrome any other colors rims complement this color?
Always been a fan of bronze wheels on a burgundy or similar (SLIHRM) paint color.

I really wanted Bronze wheels for mine, but there was such a price premium, I decided black was fine.

Here's a picture of the factory wheels dipped "Brass Monkey." I loved the color combo. Sorry the lighting isn't the best. It was a gray day.

And the black wheels I decided on.
