Default C8.R street version render

Hi All,

Had some fun at work today making a C8.R Street Version. Thought I would share!

*(Updated post to include front 3/4 render!)

I think I would tone down the rear diffuser a bit to give it more balance.

It will never look even close to that, you left on the diffuser and the front fenders. It will never have a rear wing like that either....

The 458 Slayer. Can't believe this may be an attainable reality - Diffuser and front fenders included (aftermarket). Just need airbags and factory widebody.

How is saying this will "slay" a car that came out over a decade ago and has been replaced by 2 generations since then some kind of achievement?

Thanks, it's lovely, but it doesn't have nearly enough ground clearance to be a usable street car.

See what you can do with it raised about four inches, while still keeping it looking as good.

4 inches?!?! My C5 has just over 3 inches of ground clearance... I'd rather err on the low side
