Looks good JJ!

Are the rims the OEM sizes and offsets, or fitted for a C5?

Did you notice much of a difference in the ride after lowering it?

Thats a fine looking car. I like that low angle shot in the second picture. I'll try to stop by and say hey one of these days and check out your new Z.
Congratulations.

That is a gorgeous C5 !!!

I've seen a couple of similar cars (yellow), with red letters in the C O R V E TT E spaces of the rear bumper, which I thought looked nice as well.

I'm thinking of putting red letters on mine.

Nice looking car.
