Just Like The Tiltle Says...

I Like The Appearance Of The latest Cyber Gray Mettallic ZR1 Corvette..


Even though ill never get to afford it.. I been thinking of doing something
similar like it to my camaro for the past year..!



Doing something different with my car has always been an obsession to me.. (I like being different than other f-bodies but not to an EXTREME) Having a resmblance of the zr1 corvette has been the longest and most excited one yet to get done..!!

(Still working on it)


Here are a few makeover pics. Ive done through the past years..

SORRY FOR THE BAD PICS.
DIDNT HAVE THEM STORED IN MY
COMPUTER BACK IN 06"
(didnt own a computer)

These are copies of the original with my crappy phone camera...

This was when back in 2006 (1 week after a got it)

Now.. I dont want to make a camaro(REPLICA) Of the zr1 vette.. Or "camaro edition" of it.. That would take a whole lots of $$ with the whole LS7 motor,Wide fenders,blower, ect. and soo on..

Just working with what i have.. and under a budget as well..

Just a Lil. ZR1Twist to it..TryN to keep it as clean as possible..


Heres what am Doing To it ...

Cyber Gray Metallic............PAINT
07" C6 ZO6 Polished..........WHEELS
"ZR1" Style LS1 fender.......EMBLEM
Blue painted.....................CALIPERS
Matching Blue GS fender.....STRIPES

Heres a Sneak Peak Of it.. (85% done)

Great idea. Looks pretty good so far, but I would change one thing for sure. I just can't stand when people paint the back of the brake pad!!!! It Looks like you were lazy or forgot and is tacky. I could also see possibly painting the caliper bracket a similar color to the grey paint to break it up a little bit.

This has the potential to be a really nice looking car! I'm a big fan of that Cyber Gray Metallic finish.

You changed your car more then anyone I know lol.

Good **** though, one of my favorite colors is actually Cyber Gray Metallic.

x2 on the brake pads, leave them black and paint your brackets gray; Game Over. Can't wait to see the finished work.

Interesting... Bring it on by Bob's Big Boy one of these Friday nights when you're done! A bunch of 4th gen F-bodies are there around 9:30 to 11:30.
