It looks good ...can anyone comment on the absolute need to re-align a C5/Z06 with just 1/2" and 3/4" lowering on stock bolts w/o cutting the bushings? Would the alignment still be within spec or would an alignment be a necessity?
I need to seriously ask why? I have enough troubles with bad roads, rotten steep drive way entries etc. I had to put FattMammas on the front braces just to save the braces and my facia from any more damage. How in the heck do you expect to be able to drive it anywhere without tearing up the underside of your car? God forbid the speed bumps!

I suggest getting it aligned. You will have greater tire wear on the insides of the tires if you don't.

I dropped mine all the way on stock bolts 5k ago and my tires are wearing just fine.

I think some of your concern might be triggered by the road surface/condition that we experiance here in the North East. Notice Acerider is in Florida, you're in Baltimore Maryland. When I was in Florida I was impressed with how "new" everything looked and thought well of the road system. Not the case up here in Jersey, Maryland, etc. I'm lowered and have to show a bit of common sense with the car. But after awhile it becomes second nature to know in what instances caution must be taken.
