Sriyantha Weerasuria is with Ofelio Guevara.

Just a little update on my DH #15 Camaro.
I got it about a month ago but still have not driven it lol.
These cars with the widebody were hit or miss on overall paint and the inner fender lips were so big that you couldn’t lower them much.
They had to ride close to the bump stops so the tires wouldn’t hit the fenders.
I couldn’t live life like that-so I took it to my good friend Joe Berlis Bodyshop.
They are known for extremely high-quality work on Porsches Ferrari Bentley‘s, Rolls ect.
They don’t usually do any custom stuff but, since Joe and I are old friends, they said they would look at it.
These guys killed it. Big thanks to Ofeilo for painting it.
You can’t just trim/ cut fenders on these.
The tech figured out how to trim the fenders and  reinforce them make them even stronger than they were.
After that, we looked at the body and I decided to just have the car done.
They pulled it apart, blocked it and repainted it everything except the hatch.
The car turned out amazing. I got the car back Friday didn’t have much going on for the weekend so I spent three days over 30 hours. working on it myself.
I installed all the UMI suspension components coil overs, sway bars, panhard bar, lower control arms, strut tower bar, the Hawks performance kit, plugs, wires, injectors, O2’s, new ECU ( custom programmed), thermostat, fluids etc.
I can really tell I’m getting old- woke up Tuesday morning with body aches all over. Lol.
I trailered it home and it will sit there for another month to let the paint cure, one last buff before PPF and finally decals.
