Been a member on here for awhile now but have had F-bodys mostly. But I finally got my V after 2 years of looking for the right one. Bought it banged up a lil bit. A few months of work and here it is.. Yay Still have some lil things to do. Need 2 black center caps yet. Tint the fogs and headlights. Have the windows tinted and find a nice catback. O, and some nice springs with MM spacers. But snow will be flying here soon so i might just hold off. HATE SNOW

Axles are just about it, none of the other fixes seem to do what you need them to. looks good BTW, i dont know how you dont get pulled over for those tail lights though, just dont look safe at all to me.

Ya the axles are really as good as it's gonna get for a reasonable amount. http://www.shop.gforce1320.com/product.sc?productId=53&categoryId=22 this is what I'll be getting.

Stiffer cradle bushings will help with wheel hop too. I have the BMR anti wheel hop kit and stock axles, very rarely do I get hop. I hear the Spectra works cradle bushings are good too, but i don't have first hand experience with them.

Take a look at the Houston V meet thread, on the 3rd page there is a video of me doing a burnout I have the silver V. I was on BFG drag radials at 20psi, no hop.

Congrats. Tinted windows and clear fogs will go a long way, but looks really good.
