John, your Z06 is one of my favorite cars on here.. I love that Millenium Yellow exterior. What many folks don't realize, that Z06 has 325/30/19 rear tires on 19x11.5 CCW's and there's hardly any poke, at all. Just goes to show you how much rubber you can stuff under the fenders of these cars.

Nicely done
Great looking Z06 and the Caravaggio spoiler looks great on the Z06 body.
Nice wheels, look like CCW. Is it an MCM hood?

Looks great...as I've said before. Amazing what wheels do to a car. I really like the chin spoilers too.
