Default newly updated pics w/new mods

Recent mods: Strano Springs, Koni 4/4's & UMI Adj. PHB. Installed last week, still needs some time to settle all the way.

I gave the car a wash yesterday, weather got nice around 7pm or so. So i went out and took some pics, let me know what you guys think?

Suggestions are welcome.

EDIT: Before anyone says it, the CME will be back on soon lol Saving some money to get a GMMG system w/6LE's Monster single CME tip. Also have a new set of wheels (DD C5 Gunmetals), just waiting to get a set of tires for them.

My only suggestion is to drop the front some more... right now it looks like it's taking off in every picture. These cars look mean with the front just a little lower than the rear! Other than that the car looks good.

Nope, these lenses dont leak. I like the look of the LT1's compared to the Ls1 tails.

They should settle as time goes, another member had the same look when he 1st installed lowering springs and after time. The fronts finally lowered and settled some more. So im giving it time, its only been a few days since the install.

The car looks awesome man but you may want to adjust that rear end back over to the passenger side, its way off.

Oh and sell me your CME it makes your car look horrible...jk unless you really want to.

The LT1 tails look 10x better than the LS1 tails. I hate amber-colored lights anywhere on a car.
