Default 2011 Black Diamon CTS-V , 1 week and 5k-10k project

SOOOOOO.....

My good buddy, cough cough Corvette Moderator's little brother flew in town this past week and had a new Black Diamond V delivered at the airport.

Long story short, he left it with me for MODS and "Break in" procedure... I HAVE 1 WEEK FOR MODIFYING

I just dropped it off to have the emblems and chrome painted black, see pic attach for example.

LIST:
Black out
Suede Roof
Power Mods
Passport Qi45

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I DO? HELP ME MOD THIS BAD BOY...

No, those yellow calipers are money!

And darken the fender vent too.

Any performance mods? Headers, catback, cutouts maybe?

How about a smaller pully and a new tune?

And FUZZY DICE!



To match the calipers!
