The wheels and tinted lights look great.
Brutally honest, I think I would get rid of the rear flaps unless you just have to have them, or - go with something a little more factory looking. I think there is someone here who has grafted the flares off of a c6 Z onto the back of his. Looks really good too.
Your flaps stand out big time

I have the same mud flaps and I rather have the protection then get rid of them. What I did was take them off and cut about 1 to 2 inches off the bottom of them. Believe me, it now looks much better and they still protect. You will not be disappointed.....

Car looks good. I ran a set of the same (or at least similar) mudflaps on mine for years - didn't bother me what others thought of them on the car - they did help keep chips and junk off the sides of the vehicle.

thanx guys for all the compliments. i think some of the older guys might think the wheels are a bit ghetto which is understandable but i personally love the machined and black look.
