Default thoughts on c6 zr6x widebody kit..

I've been looking at these cars from SuperVettes for last few days..Its about convinced me To Get a base C6 and do the 1.5 Inch kit..I know it different strokes for different folks just wanted to hear some feedback from the C5 community..

Personally i think its the sickest thing you can possibly do to make a C6 look killler.
Just my opinion.

It's sexy as hell, and if I had a C6 I'd go for it in a second, but I wouldn't trade my C5 for one.

The only C6 that I would want to own would be a wide body.

The only C6 i would like to own would be a Z06 or ZR1 centennial edition. Other than that i'll stay with my C5Z.

Still, if you like the look of the C6Z06, its a much cheaper way as some C6's are getting cheap. But as a purist, I wouldnt want a wide body C6 unless it was a Z.

Do you not like any of the nice body pieces offered for a C5?

I do..I plan on getting a bunch of carbon parts from corvette creationz..I'm just really intrigued by the zr6x c6..I just bought some nice 360 wheels with c6 zr1 fitment so I gotta do widebody fenders on c5..I am just thinking I got wheels for it already and they would look sweet on the c6..

Nice, well there's tons of options you can do to a C5 to look just as good.
I'm a personal fan of the caravaggio body kit on the C5 Z06's. Either that or 2 inch fender flares with a nice aftermarket hood. I have some nice plans for mine in the future.

The Centennial Edition is sexy as hell.

But I still wouldn't trade my C5 for one.
