Corvettes are designed and built to be ran hard at the track and road (on road in traffic is not for me, track only) then drive home. Bling, stickers and most spoilers do nothing to augment what the car was built for. If you want shiny toys buy a Sky or Eclipse...
Why do i not see more corvettes done with the steel louvers and chrome plates? why is yours not done?
And why do so many people insist on plastering Corvette emblems on every available square inch of their cars? Do you think no one's going to recognize what it is? I'm sure you're proud of your ride, but seeing how many emblems you can fit on it only detracts from the overall beauty of the C5.
The above picture shows 7 references to the Corvette, 8 if you count the trunk emblem. And this is just a rear shot. I'll bet there's another dozen lurking about.
But as the Others have already said a thousand times before, "It's your car. Do what you want."
You asked....looks like SHI%. ITS A SPORTS CAR not a damn Thunderbird mush mobile! KEEP THE CHROME OFF.
"Import Killer" ?? Please tell me your "LS1" isn't stock...because if it is, wake up! Its 2009! 350hp is pocket change these days...hardly an import killer as you imply

You don't see more Corvettes like that for good reason. I see that and think the equivalent of Altezzas, massive wings and 6inch mufflers on otherwise stock 1985 Civics.

Yea,,,,, not so much
First, you should know better than to ask us our opinions.
Personally I choose my mods with the intent of making people notice the CAR and not the mods. This one is too much for me. It's the same reason I don't have a chrome fuel door.
