Default Corvette ID???


Hello fellow Corvette enthusiasts. I am new to this forum but thought too seek advice/information here for the other posts I've read seem very knowledgeable. I recently found this picture on the internet and am interested transforming my car into something similar, however, I have no idea what they've done. So it would be much appreciated if I could get some feedback on perhaps all of the modifications pictured and even more specifically, the rims.

Thanks in advance,
Nick

Those are CCW SP500s that have been powder coated black. And the car is obviously lowered and the front lights have been blacked out.

Thanks for the quick reply. What size would these rims be and where could one get rims powder coated?

It looks like 19's all the way around most likely 19x11 rear and 19x10 in front looking at the lip width.

Mine are 18x9 front and 19x11 rear (polished)

I believe that car belongs to CF member "Foo King Z06".

You can give CCW a call, they will hook you up.

Turn signals have been blacked out or tinted anyway.
