First Time Owner 07 Black MZ6 Z51
Hey guys I've been lurking around this forum for a few years now and finally purchased a vette. It's an 07 2LT Z51 with 30k and I got it for a steal because it was in a minor accident. Had it checked by my mechanic and it is perfect besides the accident. Needs a new inner fender, fender, headlight and repainted bumper. I have all the parts and will be fixing it over the Winter. I am 23 and had a ws6 before the vette. This car has been my dream for a long time and I can't wait to get to drive her when shes all fixed and the weather's nice. I already painted the calipers and began the blackout process. The vette also has an aftermarket catback and if anybody has any idea what brand/type it is, I'd love to know. Let me know what you guys think.
(I will take better pics when its actually fixed)

Congrats! It's a diamond in the rough. It looks good and I'm sure it will look great after a few repairs. Have fun fixing her up.

Pretty ambitious but a worthy project and you did have it checked out.
Good luck with it, and we won't mind "progress shots" along the way, such as during the winter. Lurking a few years on here; that's patience.....

Looks like that could have been an upstate NY deer hit! 
Other than the damage, great looking car. You really are lucky to have acquired your Vette so early. I waited 2 of your lifetimes for my first!! Hey, congrats, welcome and most of all.... enjoy!!
