Default Cyber Gray Z06

Prelim Pics.

Car needs wheels, CCW C-10s are coming in Competition gray.

Car Needs Fit and Finish so don't comment on that!

TPE Flares 25 minutes of prep each side and that is counting the cutting of the slots! Flares are 10x better looking then the L5's and I have a FRC in the driveway with them so I can honestly say that!

I had Line X do the rear brake scoops cost was $50 with the UV protectant.

Here is a Iphone pic just to get this going!




The color is amazing in person with no orange peel and a lot of depth. I am very happy!

And the wheels that are going to go on these are just the wrong ones!

Hot, hot, HOT!!! Love the color! Putting some TPEs on my whip over the winter. I agree on how much better they look than the L5s.

Looks great. Cyber gray is so much darker than spiral, but I like it, too. I don't understand your comment about your new wheels being "just wrong".

The wrong wheel offsets where sent to me.

I am getting the same wheels in the correct offset but now in Competition Gray!

Wow! Exactly the #1 color on my wish list if I had a big $$$ budget. Can't wait to see the pics with the "right wheels". Great job.

Man, when they came out with that color for the C6 I thought it was awesome. Fact is though, I never have come to grips with the C6 body style. Something about the FRC that turns heads. Now you have a car that in my eyes is the best combo of both generations. NICE!!!

Would've looked pretty slick with some comp grey C6Z Spiders. I'm sure some OE take offs could be had for a decent price. Either way, I like the color...my favorite for the C6Z.
