Very rarely does an extreme custom C5 look better than how it came from the factory.

I'm betting it's not a forum member. Or, at the very least, not one that will admit to it...

I’m all for customizing a car, for any reason, tho’ most of the time the owner is expressing their artististry. However, there’s extreme and extreme-plus-every stick on embellishment possible. Believe it or not, there was a worse on on the C5 Facebook group a couple of weeks ago.

Other than the color, I'm digging everything from the headlights forward......very Tokyo Drift-ish!!

Love that functional looking front end.

Like many Corvettes with extensive body modifications I suspect this one was wrecked and put back together to be different and special. I doubt anyone would take a healthy proper C5 and make it look like this one but …….. maybe the owner likes it. Oh wait, maybe not, it's for sale?
