I LOVE people who butcher up cars like that.

It adds value, even if it is slight, to the stock or near stock C5's!

Interesting bunch of mods he's done to the car. I would almost bet that you won't see another one like it.

Ok everything else about the car aside because man it's a handful ...



... why in the world do people put sideways jacked license plate holders on anything? This has never and will never look good. It doesn't look good on a truck, it doesn't look good on a slammed or stanced import, it's skews all symmetry, and it's one of those "lets act like we're doing something different but be like everyone else"-things.

Speechless I am.

At the very least, Curtis Radical Customs should have his business license revoked and should apologize to his country for being an imbecile.
