  • [Project] Vette Progress

    Well i told you guys i would keep you updated as i do some stuff to the new ride so here it is. So far i have been having a blast with the car. I've been driving it everyday/everywhere just like i did the TA back when it was bolt ons. I LOVE the 6 speed, it is amazing and makes the car a complete blast to drive. I am getting a lot better at driving it and can even kick the car out a tad on the 2-3 Car handles amazing and the ride control features is awesome. I just love the car! Anyways, so far i had the windows tinted.... did 20% around, and installed a blackout kit (front lights, rear brake lights, 3rd brake light, and lights next to the plate) I ordered a Corsa Pace Car exhaust with the Pro 3.5 tips on Monday so that should be here soon. Today i also swung in and ordered up my new wheels. You will have to wait to see them. I will say they are 18s up front and 19s out back though! They should be on the car sometime next week as they are coming out of Cali. When those go on, it will be lowered at the same time as well. Let me know what you think! The pictures of the car bone stock when i got it are in my other thread if your curious. Thanks!

          Don't care for the black outs myself but if you like them that's all that matters.

            I'm good with everything but the tail light blackouts, but if (when) the wheels come back in black, it'll get tied all together...lol...

                  Why did the kit include something for the side markers???

                  You shouldve had that side molding shaved by now, whats the deal jonny!?

                  lol looks great dude.

                    lol thanks, side molding is going also, haven't gotten around to it yet. Blackouts are a love or hate thing.... i love em! I think it makes the rear look mean. With the Corsa tips on there it will make it look much better. Kit did not come with anything for the side markers so i guess i'm going to niteshade them.
