Tough decision, but if you have the stock 16's still those have to go! Id make sure you spend the extra money to get the ZO6's in chrome. My friend has the them polished and he spends a lot of time polishing them. After rims i'd go with a nice drop to get rid of the ugly fender gap. But, if your more into hooking up and good track times then get some slicks! Good luck!

what color is your car? i would go with the z06's, but it depends on what color your car is as to what finish to get.

Definetly ZO6 chromed rims. Just make sure you get 9.5's in the front and 10.5's out back. That's the only regret I have. Mine are 9.5's all the way around.

Does anyone know if the quality of the SLP Ultra Z hoods has gone back up? I remember not too long ago that it was a hit or miss whether you were gonna get a good one or a bad one. And by bad, I mean really bad! Cracking fiberglas, uneveness in the hood's finish, and overall poor body fit and finish. Do a search on this board, LS2, or CamaroZ28 if you don't beleive me. The past questionable quality of SLP hoods is leaving quite a doubt in my mind as to whether I'd buy one or not.
