Default Just cant wait...

I am getting impatient having to wait for some extra cash so I can buy my front AC edition front spoiler/splitter and the matching side skirts. That will complete the look that I am trying to achieve, But like most of us, Funds are a rare commodity now-a-days. So just to let you c5 owners know, I have posted for sale in the for-sale section my after market Z06 wheels and new tires for only $600. So I can get this project done already. I cant wait any longer, its driving me crazy just thinking about how its going to look when its done. I have stock non-sport seats in it for now but have already bought some black sport seats that I will need to buy new black & yellow leather covers for ,then put them in too. After that's done my non sport seats will also be for sale. Thanks to you all for reading this. This is what I have accomplished so far, Believe it or not, This used to be a completely stock triple black vert.

Looks good!!! I really like the yellow accents in the interior. I have some engine dress-up mods and interior dress mods that match my Electron Blue Z. I have been unable to find several of the pieces that you have in a painted color. Did you custom paint them yourself? Or did you purchase them? Either way it looks killer!

that to me is one of the beauties of having a great car, it never ends of the stuff you can do to the car as well as the fun of driving with your mods !!!!!

Ferg03: Everything yellow in the engine bay was painted the same time the car was painted, The under dash, center console, speedo bezel and lower door panels were also painted at the same time the car was painted, All the other yellow accessories in the interior were bought from vendors on here or ebay
