One week installed and I haven't scraped the front yet. I am a bit more conscious about my driving now.

How did you attach it to the underside of the nose? Can you use stock hardware? Where the screws are for the under tray??

Are you talking about my wheels? If so yeah the paint was just too much LOL.

Nah they are TSWs in matte gun metal, the wheels are nice wheels but I might be switching to forgestar f14s maybe in bronze or matte gun metal again.

Looking at the "Parts for sale" section, I found Gregg that just happen to be selling his front lip that he bought from Pete a couple of weeks prior (Gregg decided to go the Tigershark front route). I must say that the quality of the parts are incredible. Unless you have already bought something from Pete you won't believe the quality at the cost. I installed all the parts this week and wanted to share the pics. While looking for pics prior, I could not find a red one that had both the front and sides. I found some with the front and some with the sides. So, if you have a red Vette and wondered what both look like installed... Here Ya Go.

BTW- I sure am glad that I went with this lip and not the other one. When exiting my garage there is a down grade and this lip comes within about an inch from touching the ground because I am lowered all the way on stock bolts. But it looks good. Let's see how long I can keep it from hitting the ground.






Who makes these skirts and lip kit?

If I were going to get a lip it would be that one. Looks nice flat up against the bumper.

Needs some carbon in the rear to tie it all in.

Looks great as it sits though for sure!

Apparently, no one has noticed that this is a 5 year old thread...
