Default Hello (and a pic)

Hello! I've been lurking on this forum for almost a year and finally bought my first vette a bit over a month ago. It is an 08 3LT, M6, Z51 w/ quite a few bolt ons. I am really loving the car. Anyways, here's a couple pics.

Thanks guys! I did take the pics myself. I just got a Canon T3i on "cyber monday" and snapped these pics last Tuesday. I think they came out pretty great. And the license plate, ha, I have some fun with that.

I'd guess the LED taillights but that's all I can see that's different. What else Steven? Car looks great!
