Ok so have completed the HP increase on the vette....now wanting to increase the looks....color Atomic Orange...C6..2007...Black rims...huge Rear spoiler Atomic orange color with black brackets.
My guess would be decals...but have looked on line and have not found Decals wicked enough for this vehicle...would be good if someone could suggest a web site that I have missed....

Post a picture of your car so we have an idea what you're working with.

What type of decals are you looking for?
Racing Decals? Parts Manufacturer Decals? No Fat Chicks Decals? etc.

I'd check the Honda forums. I understand they have stickers that add horsepower too

Stickers add weight, so if you put them on, you will need to add more horsepower. Its a never ending cycle. Stickers, hp, stickers, hp. Geeze!!!

Get a "CORVETTE" decal for the windshield in matching color and be done with it.

What type of decals are you referring to? Need to be a little more specific. Are you looking to add race type decals like on the C7-R or what. If you are looking to make the car look like a track car, then you will want to think about adding a front splitter and the side rails.

That's no wing you got there. Now this is a wing.

Seriously please tell me the car came with the wing or something plausible.

You should spend the money to make the car nicer not ricer. Lower it a little bit, put a lip and a nice ZR1 Extended spoiler and that thing will look great!
