I carbon fiber wrapped the roof, mirrors, rear fascia, and added a couple carbon fiber hash marks. I also put a clear bra on. Still not sure about the hash marks, but I can always remove them. Wheels next, then interior. And can't leave out Tweety!!

Only a cell phone pic handy, and it was taken directly following an unfortunate downpour that lasted all of 2 minutes, but long enough to get everything dirty dirty...

Frank! I remember back in 2006/7 pulling my Z around into my back yard armed with Goof Off, mechanics gloves and fishing line to remove the BSM’s... I distinctly remember when the first BSM came loose. I inspected the door of my car, then the bsm and immediately thought of you and gave a chuckle as I looked north... “Made in Canada”. I don’t know if I ever delivered that funny to you on the forum but it was an ironic and very funny moment early in my C5Z/forum experience Hope you’re great buddy!

Sharp! OP, this is pretty much what I'd want a MY C5 to look like. And I generally don't like 19/20 wheels.

Hey Taryn, how’s it going, EH?

No, don’t recall that you mentioned that BSM funny, but good that you did get rid of them to really clean up the car.

I am‘still alive, , hope you stay that way too, in your ‘firey, hot, risky buisiness’!

I voted for you bud!

That was my immediate thought.
I sure wouldn't want people thinking that is what I am into.
One might ask how I know about Grindr.
One of my tenants belongs to that site.

Bob.
Really? That's the only thing you thought of when you looked at that car? You are far nicer than I would have been.......

Love the Avanti, is it an original production (if so R1, R2 or R3?) or a continuation model? The C3 is pretty tricked out too!

Though not a MY owner, I really enjoyed seeing everyone's cars here. Some very nice details, but my favorite has to be Tweety Bird!
Thanks to all of you (or y'all as we say here), for taking the time to post!
