I like the custom floor mats in the first pics. 
It actually isn't much different then the other custom red/black interiors I have seen here. Only the chrome accents are something different.
Go for it!
What does the outside look like? I see a big hood I think.

I think for my next interior I'll wrap everything with the "custom floor mats" except the roof liner I'll use Benjamin prints...

I can't believe all of the negative comments, but you handled all of the characters well showing your good personality. I really like the uniqueness of your car. My car is similar and I would probably be hurt to post pictures after all the time I have invested for someone to try to tear it all down. You know what you wanted to accomplish, I know what type of work it takes to think, plan, complete and PAY for the work you have done to your car, and that no matter what it looks like tells me what type of person you are.
While it is not my style or something that would have been natural for me to create, I certainly like it and would definitely be proud to drive your car.
A lot of the people on here have 97s with 175k miles with wagon wheels and are ripping on your car. Their mods are hood seal and getting rid of the run flats ; ) Again, I can't believe there was not even any positive comment on your dvd/nav system, relocating the power charger, and removing the entire interior to do this, and then we see the exterior has the same level of work and I am seeing a supercharger to back a Z06...very nice Sir!

Being in the car show scene for as long as I have, the stress and aggravation isn’t worth it over negative criticism, I shrug it off and laugh. I want to encourage others like you to dare to be different to show your hard work and say I’m proud of my accomplishments…that’s why I show my car/ post pics.

Right on brother 
How many car shows have you attended and have you had much success? Have you landed mags?
I will post a thread of my car soon, I like to keep low key, but so many people have helped me on the forum through my project that I can make the focus more of a thank you thread to all and this forum.

I've attended and won many shows through out the past 10 years, the Z06 being my 4th show car I haven’t been too completive with it but I’m very lucky to have the support of a Vender who uses the car to show case their work. So just like last year it will be in their booth at Carlisle. I’m also in touch with a photographer who wants to use it for a magazine shoot…I’d say I’m having good success

Guess you're not a fan of flared fenders/quarter panels? Maybe start a partition to have L5 stop producing them?

So if you're against the aftermarket companies and want nothing to do with them then I'm confused as to why even read or reply to forums?
