Its getting closer..
My recently imported C5 has been complied...
On Thursday the factory wheels are coming off....then she's getting new Bilsteins, z06 sways, drilled and slotted rotors, braided brake hoses and painted callipers.
It's also getting the Vararam fitted, the Corsa Xtreme fitted..
Rear window will be tinted..car lowered...oh and cant forget the column lock bypass..And finally those BSM's are coming off..
Has other stuff like smooth red rail covers, braided hoses, chrome oil catch can, stainless this and that...radiator screen, cool it relay, fangs etc etc
And radioflyer LED halos and clear DRL's with LEDs
Spent some time today putting Zaino on my CCWs
Will be looking somewhat different in a week or so
