i've seen several cars in all flat black, and with the silver, it really sets off the black giving it a very euro/racing look.

Atleast black the halo out and get the windows tinted.

Looks good. I assume there's no clear coat or protective coating. How do you maintain it?

I think they're doing something similar on the GTR's.

Overall, I like it!

I like it Chris - I think it could go even further in a gloss black...

Have we seen you at the GTG's or runs??

I think its one of the nicest C6s that I've seen here. Great stance, love the wheels (impressed you got that kinda lip in the rear of a C6), and the custom paint looks very cool. You have created the complete package.

One note: You gotta fill that emply pod hole.

Really can't stand the look, I think it breaks up the flow of the car's lines.

Looks like the kind of vette a hitman would drive (in a good way in case you are)

Thanx again for the kudos and opinions.
Tinting the windows....good idea.
Gloss black....don't think so......the flat actually compliments the pillars, trim, and interior (think it's "ebony?' dash & panels with silver seats). Not real big on shine myself....like the subdued nature of flat black for my car. With 3 coats of clear the flat black keeps surprisingly clean easy....still dusts up and shows it quickly after the cleaning.
Need a quality A/F gage to fill the other pod hole....soon.
Not sure what GTG's are or the RUNs....but am interested.
And yes, the car has *****. Good thing the car has *****....my wife has mine after spending the motherlode on the vette this year.

cheers
chris
