WELCOME TO THE FORUM! Best corvette site on the net!
How did you get it so low? Are you on coilovers or did you only cut the bushings?

Aloha Slammed,

I just moved from Hawaii in August...miss the weather over there! Car looks good...I would paint the fender covers under the hood to match the FRC's...never seen your color combo under the hood, so I think it would look great with more white.

If you want some good vette info or need any help with mods, wheels, tuning, etc, look up EFI 1 on this site. Dave is a great guy and President of EFI there on Oahu.

Welcome. I didn't know there was 4" of space to lower a Vette--I'm still new to the mod thing. The car looks great.
