All that and no pics.





Just kidding. Sounds great. Post up some pics when you can. And just a FYI, the only thing special about the C5 Z06 calipers is the red paint. Other than that they are the same as C5 calipers. It would be cheaper to get powedercoated calipers in any color you want. Here is where I got mine from and they do a great job.
