The one thing I do like is the exhaust. The 4 slightly smaller, closer tips look much better than the clumsy space and slightly oversized (IMO) factory C5 tips.

There was a body kit that would make a C4 look like a C5.
And a body kit that would make a C4 look like a C3.
There is a kit to make a C7 look more Corvette like.
I'm sure all the kits add at least 25Hp. and take off .2 seconds.
I will go for the stock look and leave well enough alone.

This thread just goes to show that just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should do it.........
But on the bright side, it still looks better than those louvered C5 tail light covers. But that bar was pretty low already.

That striping is very nice.

I have to admire a guy with imagination and the stewardship skills to get good results.
I would color the top to match the stripe, I used to have a navy blue car with a tan top and have always liked the look. THe gold stripe and the pretty paint job reminded me of old times.
I probably should keep my yap shut, my car is stock triple black and is staying that way, a universe apart from yours , plus yours probably stays clean. I was once complimenting a car show participant on the little jeepster he was loading up . Being a gentleman, he returned the compliment, saying my vette was pretty nice, just needed a little clean up. We both laughed when I said I cleaned it up before coming to see the show. Again, compliments on the stewardship.

I think it turned out great, can it be ordered without the spoiler, or is it pre-drilled?

C5 to C7 Rear Bumper
I am surprised it looks as good as it does quite honestly. I wouldn't do it but, it doesn't look terribleb considering the edginess of the lights really doesn't agree with the flowing lines of a C5 but...the fitment and finish is so good, it's almost not abnormal looking. I hate the chrome stickon crap and the little slats in the front WAY more than I hate the rear bumper.
Not bad overall I guess. I hope you don't have lambo doors to go with it though...that's really put the rice in the ricecake.

C5/7 rear spoiler
You do not have to use the large spoiler at all. We did add about 1 1/4" to both ends & had to shape it to look right on the C5 for my preference. Just me being picky!
