Looking for some information on how low you can go on lowering bolts on a C6Z.

For reference, is the car pictured below possibly done on aftermarket bolts or is this for sure on coilovers?

FRChilln

Lowering bolts with cut bushings can go about 2.5".

Z2Z

Looks sick. 2nd to ask, is the rear fascia a wrap, Plsti-dip, painted? Is the roof and halo the same? Looks awesome.

When you say "how low?" are you looking for height by numbers or just photo comparisons?

I will give both...measurements to the center of the fender well.

OEM bolts lowered all the way. OEM tires
RF- 26 3/8"
LF- 26 3/8"
RR- 27 1/2"
LR- 27 1/2"





WCC aftermarket bolts, front bolts all the way down and rear with about 1/4" left. Also new Michelin Super Sport 285/345.
RF- 26"
LF- 26"
RR- 27"
LR- 27"

Stock bolts lowered all the way. I need to get a good side shot soon. But here is a rear and front side shot





Actually here. Took a pic before and after. Hopefully you can tell. These are stock bolts.

Thanks. The rear and roof of my car is 3M Vinyl. I didn't want to paint over the factory DSOM. The bolts are from west coast corvette. There's more pictures on my instagram "C_beliovsky_J" and my photo bucket or google under "C5Z51". I am currently a tad lower on pfadt feathers.
Ibleedgreen, your car looks good. My second color choice.

I didn't measure but it's pretty low. Stock bolts with bushings cut. I had the shop lift the rear a bit. Gonna go back to lift it up some more. Front is slammed and I like it like that.

Im gonna lower mine also but im going with coilovers.... I think the ride gets a little choppy in the rear when u lower all the way down in the rear... Might be a good idea to go with bilsteins or DRM shocks

ao is atomic orange , whats dsom?

FRChilln

You don't have to go back to the shop to have them lift the rear for you. You don't even have to lift the car. Get a ratchet under there and twist it clockwise from the top. Easy breezy...

Daytona Sunset only made in 06, and was replaced with AO in 07

Thanks! I may do it myself so I can play with it until I'm 100% happy.

FRChilln

Yeah that's what I did. 3 full turns from the bottom worked for me

How is that 3M Vinyl holding up?

ZSS2148

So far it's doing well. I had the roof of my SRT8 wrapped for a couple of years with no issues, and that car stayed outside all the time.

I got 3/4" from the stock bolts. Do not cut the bushings,they're there for a reason.

LFZ

That is not typical with stock bolts... You got lucky.
