he got standard car paint from the local auto parts. they were sanded, sprayed, then cleared. They've help up pretty decent over the last year. they have a few rock chips in them but easily fixable and not really seen.

Not a Z06, but these are the ones I got for my black FRC. I thought the competition gray was a nice contrast.

Haven't put them on yet, but here is a photoshopped pic of my car with them.

Thanks, ditto!

Added the pinstripe last weekend. Just bought some red vinyl pinstripe tape from Pepboys to see how it would look, will have it painted if it grows on me. I'm still undecided, I'll have to see how I like it after taking the car to a few shows when the monsoons stop.

I like your tail lights. Is that just some sort of stick on film? If so, where did you get it?

Honestly, it was on the car when I got it. It was made of the same type of material that you see a lot of these "pinstripe" kits made of.

From what I could tell, the entire light was covered in this film, then a razor or exacto knife used to cut out the pattern.

When I got the car, they were looking a little worse for wear so I had the lights cleaned and tinted, so there isn't a pattern there anymore.

Just picked this one up!! Even though you don't want to pay for CCW's at least this will give you an idea of a polished lip and a black center weave type wheel.

Just changed from black Motorsport wheels to these. From West Coast Corvettes. Standard ZO6 size 17" front 18" rear. Chrome works for me.

I don't think they make them in deep dish.
