Nice job on the custom parts.

"My Corvette likes my money."

LOL. That reminds me of the first race car I worked on, which was a highly modified C3 Corvette GT/Trans Am car. The semi-official "team T-shirt" had a picture of the car on it, with the motto "Turning money into noise!"

Default Wheels

The wheels are IForged 20x13.5 with Niito 345/25ZR20. Also I installed Baer 6 piston calipers and rotors. I like modifying stuff.

It’s your car - do with it as you wish. Clearly you are in for a one of a kind and you have the skills to make it happen. What does your fender badge say? May be the only thing I might object too 🙃

Wow... I think it looks great. There will always be people who will talk trash about anything other than stock/original. These are the same people who don’t mod their cars and feel if the factory didn’t add it, then you shouldn’t either.

I don’t see anything wrong with with your diffuser, I actually really like the way you have the reverse light frenched in under the fins...

as far as the wide body goes, go as wide as possible as long as you have the rubber to fit the space.

I for one don’t want the same car as everyone else. I want my car to stand out and be noticeably different. This typically requires straying from factory settings which tends to upset a great deal of people in these forums. to them I just smile, nod and ignore.

car looks great man!

SPEED SAFE, Nick

Diffuser looks good, nice job! What catches my eye is the smallish exhaust tips, needs some 4.5" tips!

Default Looks awesome

Sometimes i wonder why folks ask what others think... but I know sometimes a second opinion about proportions or aesthetics helps avoid willful blindness brought on by laboring over something. Eventually you will figure out if you like it.

Regarding "home made"... who cares? I saw a GM test C8 the other day at work. It had a 3d printed spoiler, duct tape and an engine that I couldnt identify. Still looked pretty awesome even if it wasn't "factory". Or is it factory if the duct tape and 3d printed parts are applied by GM engineers?

Personally I dont like many mods for looks, but these look good to me, mainly because they look like they "do" something.
