ill post mine in a few days when the cars back from paint. pretty much the same body kit as the guys above. I like my doors shaved tho
These doors are kinda heavy, let me know which poppers you go with... If I can get my hands on them, I'd love to swap in C6 door handles.

greenwood kit? I love it all, but I'm convinced spoilers just don't look right on C4's. Maybe a small lip spoiler would look decent... i'll have to experiment once I get to the exterior...
88yellow, i really like that hood, kind of like the big block hoods on the 69? stingray.
Same idea, the scoop is really for a 69 camaro. We chopped, cut, sliced, narrowed, cussed, and molded in. The center uf the hood was cut out for clearence, that's the reason for the scoop.
he put a L-88 hood scoop on it
I like it looks good
I've only seen one other pic of this scoop on a C4, and in both cases I think it looks awesome! Only hesitation I would have is the paint or glass slowly cracking from use. Totally worth it though .
I have not had the Vette to the dyno. It was street tuned by Greg at blower works. He also installed several upgrades to include the 42 lb injectors. He does fantastic work.
there are dozens of custom corvette's on the forum.
Mine looks like the "run of the mill c4, with zr1 wheels". Of course, it's also supercharged and running on Drag-radials .... but that's besides the point! lol...

car looks awsome! what did you do to lower it? stance is perfect. thats kind of what im going for, pretty stock looking outside with a sick engine underneath. any engine pics?

Thanks a lot! I lowered it with the traditional lowering wedges up front and the bolts in the rear (usually sold as a kit). I do feel the rear still has some room to go lower.
The front transverse leaf spring was removed (of course-per the instructions) and the existing mounts removed. the poly wedges provided with the kit adhere to the stock location of the previous rubber mounts. the trick is to trim the wedges further than the way they come in the kit. I also had the "pads" at the ends of the springs sanded down to further lower the front end.
Keep in mind I am running 255/40-17 in the front. in comparison to the standard 255/45-17. Giving me a shorter overall height at the tire diameter. I believe this also aided in the outcome and final stance of the car.
a standard 255/45-17 or even a 275 series will fill in the wheel wheel a little bit better and likely raise the front end a little bit.
check out "Z51jeff", he has a ZR1 c4 corvette that has been lowered by using the VB&P front and rear leaf spring. His car is RIDICULOUSLY low! It's tough enough at my current ride height, I have no idea how he manages to get around.
*edit*
I can take some pictures of the engine bay, but it's not detailed (i.e. show car quality). This is my daily driver, so it's not as spotless as some of the examples on this forum.
