Hands down from the outside,I would have to say NemesisC5's black
'99.
I've had an idea what direction I would want to go,and his car is visual proof of good taste and the direction I continue to strive for.First time I looked at it I did a double take thinking it was a C6Z,truly a tastefully
modded car.

This forum has a wealth of great ideas.
There were several C5s I picked parts from to make my own... but Alcee1 stood out the most to me.

There are a lot of cars that have given me an idea of where I want to go with my 'vette (obviously not there yet!!!), but overall it would have to probably be 02MilleniumVette and FLATOUT's rides

None.
When mods started to hit the market around 2000 or so, very few cars had them so it was really what caught your eye on the net and what you thought would look cool on your car, whether it be a functional or appearance mod.
I remember when exhausts were about the only thing out.

Nobody... doing my own thing
Was one of the first people to black out the lower rear of the car back in 2003. Only a few people have a DRM hood and only one other forum member that I know of has the DRM + tigershark nose combo. Even fewer targa Z06s and I think Im the first person to have a DIY targa vs. the Caravaggio kit
