My first C5 ---[custom]---
I just finished painting and re-assembling my first C5. It is a customized 2001, paint code 23. I have John Greenwood ground effects all around, C6 wheels, a custom hood and a hand built rear spoiler. I can't post pics but I can send some to anyone wishing to post them for me.

I always felt GM mounted the tail lights a bit too high. I built this one-of rear spoiler to add some body above the lights, thereby making the lights appear lower.

Looks very nice. You might want to lower the back end a bit though !
