C7 progress pics
 
Dont think ive posted any pictures of my car on here yet, learned alot from lurking so figured id post some pics.. got the car about 3-4 months ago (i think) completely stock and had plans on leaving it that way but we all know how that goes. First thing i did was tint the windows and lowered it on stock bolts to eliminate some of the wheel gap but keep it high enough so i dont ruin the front bumper or dont have to worry to much, then got the wheels painted black, did a double helix corsa xpipe and corsa extreme axle back.....future plans hopefully for next summer is adding a d1 pro-charger once the dollar gets better for us here in Canada.

Stock when i first got it

Very nice ! ...glad to see you bought the fastest color

Thanks guys, my only requirements when buying one was white and manual lol I got this one with 3,800km (2,800miles ish) I could have got a z51 for the same price but they all had 25,000+ km on them so I passed and went with the lower km. Only thing I dislike is not having mag ride as last summer I used to drive my buddy's dad's around that was a z51. Some coilovers should stiffen it up a bit :D

Nice car. I liked the chrome better, not a black wheel fan as most minivans have black front wheels which reminds me.

Love the new look with black wheels and tinted windows. If you are in Ontario, where did you get the windows tinted?

psd_24s 07-17-2017 03:43 PM

I'm located in the Vancouver bc area.. The sides are 25 and the back window and the small ones are 15.....i kinda wanna wrap the top half black like that Cletus guy from 1320video lol might be a bit much though

Gkabc7 07-17-2017 03:50 PM

Any trouble seeing out the back at night with 15

psd_24s 07-17-2017 04:01 PM

all my previous vehicles have had dark tint so I'm kind of used to it but it is pretty hard as these cars don't have much visibility from the back to begin with

Gkabc7 07-17-2017 04:17 PM

35 is legal in Illinois I'm on the fence on the 25 mines white likes yours black wheels too like your new look on yours tho.

psd_24s 07-18-2017 11:25 AM

All window tint on driver and passenger windows is not legal here which sucks because u can drive 15min into Washington where I believe it's legal. If I ever have to re do them I'll get them slightly darker

Very cool, congrats

right decision on the wheels
 
came from a '12 GS with chrome everywhere (it seemed) and when I was given the green light to buy my last Vette (retiring next year) I still kept (my favorite for a Vette) the torch red but was really smitten by the black wheels (and black calipers)....great decision!

brooklync5 07-18-2017 03:43 PM

Very nice funny how wheels can change the entire look of the car. Well done!

Z06NJ 07-19-2017 10:56 AM

Looks good! Keep going.
