Go over to the C5 Forum and ask IceBurgh to post pictures of his black
C5. He has a Stinger Hood with the stinger done in Millennium Yellow.
Nice hood, no clue who makes it!
Nice cars by the way!

Re: Got C5 for daily driver (1RED1)
Congrats! Nice choice too :D. I did the same thing last year...flew up to Newark to pick up my '99 from an individual and drove it back. Was flawless and had 4K miles on it with mods like wheels, interior, Borla exhaust, Ripper and intake already done. Now I can't stop adding stuff to this car :lol: It's a terrific car for daily use. :cheers:
