I like it, you may also want to install a black full width spoiler and maybe side skirts.

OK, don't worry "lynnb" ... these guys would probably never buy a yellow car in the first place

I have a yellow Z and I like it! Also, like "CENT Z06" said you may want to consider the spoiler and side skirts in the future. How about some more pix too?

Sorry, I have to say it: If you think that's a "facelift", I don't think I want to meet you in person.

Nice car though and I agree on the blackout headlights.

Wheels I like...rear I dont. Just me though. If you like it, thats all that matters. My car has been undergoing a true facelift for the past 8 weeks..my guess is some will like and some will.hate. we'll see.

I wonder if some stripes would help...


I like how the C6R looks:

Also, add some yellow pin stripe tape on the wheel lip (you can get it at autozone, ect.)

I think those 2 updates would make it pop

Yellow Pinstripes on the wheels would tie it all together.

Not feeling a good vibe with the back end... love the rims.. My 07 LMB.. just got a Facelift.. a very good wet sand.

With a good polish.. Better than when I got her.. the color is now so deeeeeeep... with C/F front and rear spoiler.. just looks so much better.

I like the black spiders from 09 up Z's

the black rear is plastidip from a rattle can? if so, you can return to stock easily

You modded the car, it's unique, I see it as a tribute to the C5/6R racing program, I like it.
