Sorry for the crappy pix guys.

Next is some carbon side skirts.






Those combination of mods, keep the car looking fresh, but not like some bolt on mods, the kids want, and are over the top. The car's original design is timeless, but these mods really compliment the original C5 design... the flairs are nice, the splitter is nice but the lines of the MCM hood is nothing short of Sexy. Considering this car came into concept back in 1995, that's 20 years ago... I can remember it like it was yesterday.

Like every other day I take my car out, I am constantly bombarded with kudos from all types of people.. there is not One day that I take my car out that I don't get atleast one positive comment. MY MCM hood, the flairs, those fat tires, the Zaino, the stance,, all make turning the key and having someone say something nice, keeps many of us C5er from having to spend 70 grand to get anywhere near the type of attention I receive daily..
Good luck with the new look, and the attention it will give you and your car.

not too shabby man

just quick suggestion

get some proper size tires on that rear wheels, or proper size rear wheels for that tires, its looking like show car import stretching the tires,

then maybe lower the front more, from the picture it looks reverse raked

put back the c5 "z06" logo

I got the 335's at a steal. So they'll stay for now. It's stretched but nothing like what you're referring to imo...I personally really like the look.

I like the C6 badge a tad more. Most don't even notice
If I went any lower, I wouldn't be able to get into my driveway and into my garage....

How could they, I don't even know myself...

You may have a much nicer car than Mine... but at least I have a screen holder on my MCM hood.
