Chevy Introduces Camaro Accessories, Performance Parts
Broad range of components designed to enhance personalization and driving fun
DETROIT – As the all-new Gen Six Camaro rolls into showrooms this fall, Chevrolet
is matching its introduction with accessories and performance parts that enable
greater personalization and driving fun.
From performance air intake and exhaust systems, to lowering kits, ground-effects
packages, spoilers and even performance Brembo®
brake systems, the lineup is
designed to offer customers choices for distinguishing their new Camaros on the
street and making the most of the cars’ performance capabilities.
“These accessories and parts were designed, engineered and tested by our Camaro
team, assuring proper fit and integration - and they are backed by Chevrolet,” said
Jim Campbell, GM U.S. vice president of Performance Vehicles and Motorsports.
The roster of 2016 Camaro performance parts includes:
 Performance exhaust – Kits will be available late this year for Camaro SS
with the LT1 V-8 and Camaro LT with the 3.6L V-6. These axle-back systems
enhance the performance sound of the Camaro and offer a premium
appearance. Each is a direct replacement for the factory system and
maintains the vehicle’s factory warranty. The kits are not compatible with the
available dual-mode exhaust system.
 Suspension lowering kits – Incorporating higher-rate front and rear coil
springs, along with specifically tuned struts and shocks, theses kits are
designed to provide an integrated package that provides an aggressive
stance by lowering the vehicle up to 0.8-inch (20mm), while optimizing ride
quality and vehicle performance. They also deliver a lower center of gravity
that enhances the feeling of responsiveness. Four kits are tailored for LT and
SS coupe and convertible models. The SS kits are not compatible with
vehicles equipped with the available Magnetic Ride Control. They will be
available in early 2016.
 Brembo®
performance front brake package (four-piston calipers) –
Developed as an upgrade for Camaro LT models with the 2.0L Turbo and
3.6L V-6 engines, this kit features Brembo®
four-piston aluminum calipers in
red with performance brake pads and 13.6-in. x 1.2-in. (345mm x 30mm)
vented and slotted Duralife™ rotors – the same size as the Camaro SS. The
kit is a direct replacement for the original front brakes and includes low-
expansion front brake hoses and all necessary hardware.
 Brembo®
performance front brake package (six-piston calipers) –
Developed for the enthusiast looking for ultimate braking performance while
maintaining street drivability. This Brembo®
front brake system features six-
piston monoblock aluminum calipers in red with performance brake pads and
two-piece, 14.6-in. x 1.3-in. (370mm x 34mm) vented and slotted Duralife™

2. rotors (cast-iron braking rings with aluminum hats). This kit is available for
all Gen Six Camaro models and includes low-expansion front brake hoses and
all necessary hardware.
 Performance air intake – This kit, available in early 2016, helps reduce air
restriction and includes a reusable open-element air filter, a sealed
compartment with all the necessary installation hardware for the Camaro SS
with the LT1 V-8.
 Engine covers – These stylish, easily installed covers give the Camaro
engine a show-quality appearance. They will be available by the end of the
year in red, blue or black for the V-8 and V-6 engines and a cover for the
2.0L Turbo engine is planned as well.
These performance parts complement a full line of Camaro accessories including
wheels, exterior and interior enhancements and graphics packages.
Highlights include:
 Three aluminum wheel designs, in multiple finishes
 Grille kits with six body-color inserts for LT and SS models; inserts are also
available in chrome-appearance or primed versions for custom painting
 A blade-style rear spoiler and ground effects kit, each offered in 10 colors
 Four exterior graphics packages, offered in multiple colors, including,” rally
stripe,” front-fender “hash mark,” racing stripe designs and a body-side
“spear” graphic
 Interior trim kits, offered in multiple colors.
Customers can also select alternate-finish versions of existing features such as
smoked taillamp lenses and blacked-out or LED-illuminated bowtie emblems.
Customers can view many of the accessories on the new Camaro using the online
Camaro Visualizer.
“There’s almost no limit to the performance and personalization possibilities with
the 2016 Camaro,” said Campbell.
