Ok this is not my car but I had to share as this is a beautiful Vette. Every thing about it is perfect, the stance, the rear wide body, wheels, side skirts etc. Too bad it doesn't show the front but I hope it has the C5R splitter and kept the pop up lights.

This is exactly what I would do to my car money permitting except my car is Mag Red and my wheels would be polished or chrome.

(I can't post a direct link to the picture as I'm on my iPad so if some one could fix that it would be awesome).

Very nice! Beautiful car!

I'm fond of the pop up lights so I'd have to keep them and I'd get the C5R front splitter.

Amazing car

Thanks "Brother T" and Thanks to everyone for their generous compliments!!

My goal was to model after the C5R hence the non-popups. I could not resist the Tigershark front fascia because it offers additional airflow to my intercooler & radiator and also it's origin was from a genuine GM Corvette concept car.

Moving forward I'm weighing my options to sell the car to help fund a C6Z or convert to N/A to participate in HPDE events. I've put a lot of time, detail and $ into the car so I'm hesitant to use as a street/track car that will undoubtedly get scuffed up. Another option would be to trade for a C5Z modded for street/track duty.

Additional pictures in the link in my sig below.

Thanks Again Everybody!!
