Freaking awesome!!! I made it just like I wanted it!! Extreme C6 Transformation.
Okay y'all!!! Just like the title says!! Extreme C6 Transformation. I purposely bought a used C6 Base model because I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. Here is a photo of how it looked the day I bought it in March 2018.
I knew I wanted a wide body kit, upgrade Grand Sport brakes, always wanted lambo doors, so that was a must, Big wheels and meaty tires, and a bold color change!!! Well Fast forward to now......What do y'all think? (Photos Below)
It took me a couple weeks to get my parts wish list together. Then get parts ordered and then waited. Once everything started arriving about 8-9 weeks later. The install and build happened. This past Friday it was finally road ready!!
I am so excited!!
Oh my Instagram is QUICKSILVERSS in-case anyone uses IG and wants to check out my other posts.

It's yours! You gotta be the one to like it. We don't count. But, I will say, I like it.
PS kinda like the year or so when Corvettes didn't have yellow in the lineup. People wrote in and complained---most said they might not buy it but they kinda liked seeing it on the road from others who did buy them! Sounds a bit strange, but then again, I've had Corvettes that were green (not a fave color of those who buy), yellow and orange.

I know the photos do not do the color very much justice. The wheels are orange. The Body is Blue and the color Scheme is based on Houston Astros colors!!!

I feel bad for all the necks I broke this weekend driving it around town in Galveston, TX. I know how they feel.....because my wallet is broken as well.

Nice job. Looks like excellent craftsmanship and I am amazed at how much work you did in just few weeks. Fantastic transformation.

well I can tell you it was not an easy 3 weeks. The shop who did the work here in Houston did have a head start on tear down waiting for the body kit to arrive. They got started on adding the Grand Sport break kit I bought and doing the lambo doors. Then waiting for wheels which took I think 9-10 weeks. When body kit they got to it doing the install and color change. Then I decided on doing Ridetech HQ coil overs because the stock shocks were wore out! Everything came together in the end just right! I love it.

I like the car better than the pictures of the car. Seems the camera is set wrong or something...Look forward to some better pics of the car as I believe it probably looks really good. Congrats on the Car!
