Finally took some nice pics
I've had this '04 coupe since Sept 2012. Not sure what was wrong with me, but this is the first time I've set out to take pictures of the car somewhere other than my driveway. 
Lowered on stock bolts, VetteStripes.com 2-tone RF fender stripes, Blackwing, GHL Bullets, slotted rotors, painted calipers, clear corners with switchbacks, HID head/fog bulbs. New wheels are supposed to deliver tomorrow, but for now enjoy!

Thanks for the compliments guys. 
The first pic and last one are quickly becoming two of my favorites.
Weather was finally nice, car was mostly clean, and had some downtime between kids sporting activities. Not too often the stars align like this on a weekend.

Not too much more really. Thinking of a very light tint, maybe the lower rear fascia section wrapped, headers, and LED halo taillights. Also just got my Redline Goods console lid cover. will try to get that installed this weekend.

I love the quality of these stripes, but $135 for a pair of these is just on the edge of being very hard to justify...
