I would do the halo too if I had a C5, looks great, but you need too tint the glass, especially the back glass to really get 'the look'!

The big issue cops have with tint is the side glass, not the back.

I'd like to see a CF front lip spoiler and CF ACI style side skirts on that. I'm sure they would tie it all together.

Honestly, both setups look good. Usually with a before & after one clearly stands out over the other....in this case I can't pick - they both are winners to me!

Thanks for the coments guys, I'm going to leave in black the mirrors for now, and later repaint them in white.

Not all Mexico, just some States like my State Colima, and this Law have like 1 year since the big violence we live this days.

Yeah It looks good, I'm going to Tint the rear first, and maybe tint with 50% the sides.

I like the all white look better. The only way the black halo works for me is if it's gloss black and the windows are tinted dark to match.

As already said, the black mirrors remind me of those leather covers.

Gotta say Sergio, looks great. Only thing I liked better about the before pic is the mirrors. Other than that, it's all good. Take care

Not really a fan, myself. The Z28 Camaros had black halos and black mirrors... I personally wouldn't want my Vette looking like an F-body. But it's your car.
