Default After years of considering a Z06

After years of thinking about buying a Z06 I finally decided to keep my 2014 C7 Z51 Vert and add some mods . . . I added a Stage 3 Kit . . I think it looks really nice, the next thing i'm adding is new rims, they should be here next week but, I thought I would share my car's transformation . . .

Also, I have my Z51 spoiler that I will put on eBay but, If anyone is interested please pm me, thanks.

Nice car and all that money you saved can buy you a new or used ZR1 in the future!

Looks GREAT, but I'm partial to the Stingray body...

I've done the same thing with my Z51 and love how it transforms the car. Yours is looking great!

I know the feeling.

Similar situation with my daughter in college. Probably not the right time to spring for a Z06. Great looking Vette!!

adding the Z06 front grill will make a huge difference.
