It’s been a while since we last saw a Chevrolet Camaro get the aftermarket treatment. But like rain on a hot summer day, German tuner DD Customs dropped the details of its special tuning conversion for the American muscle car->ke507. Just like that, our thirsts were quenched.

The Hamburg-based aftermarket company received a special request from a customer; take his 2010 Camaro SS and give it a complete makeover. DD Customs accepted the challenge and went to work, giving the Camaro a comprehensive enhancement that should make its owner proud.

It's admittedly not the most impressive Camaro program we've seen. But DD Customs did itself some good publicity with this program by showcasing its capabilities and producing an impressive piece of work.

Not too bad for a German-based tuner who has presumably worked on more German sports cars than American pony cars. If I owned this Camaro->ke248 and this is how it turned out, I'd consider it money well-spent.

Chevrolet Camaro SS By DD Customs in detail

The first order of business was to dress it up to look more the part of an all-conquering American muscle car. Some aerodynamic components were also added, including a carbon-fiber front lip spoiler and an in-house carbon rear diffuser that creates a nice frame for the four massive exhaust outlets.

DD Customs also went to work on the Camaro's wheels, quickly swapping the stock versions for a rare and customized set of 22-inch, black-and-red Drewske STC-10 wheels.

22-inch wheels on a Camaro are massive additions, both in aesthetic and performance terms. From there, the tuner worked on improving the Camaro’s suspension setup, giving it a KW Version 1 undercarriage to help stabilize the car and improve its handling.

The Camaro’s massive 6.2-liter V-8 engine wasn’t spared from getting its own upgrade. DD Customs added a handful of new performance-spec components into the engine, including a K&N air filter system, a two-inch fan manifold, and two 200-cell race catalysers. With all those in place, the tuner accomplished its goal of increasing the Camaro’s output from the standard 426 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque numbers to 467 horsepower and 449 pound-feet of torque.

DD Customs concluded its work on this Camaro by installing a special, flap-controlled exhaust system that lets out a blood-curdling scream when those flaps open up to let the engine’s throaty roar out.
