Default BSM's

You'd better be wearing your Nomex thong undergarments as someone will surely tell you to do a BSMectomy on those Body Side Mouldings soon! If you do, I have heard that some decent fishing line is the way to go on that!

The BSM's look just fine on the C5! By the way, your vert is VERY nice looking .

Nice looking vert. Good start to the mods too. But, IMHO, you need to change out those blue silicone pieces on the air bridge for red. The blue looks out of place with the black and red under the hood. Just my .02.
