I do miss the old paint scheme though....
ive taken the pinstriping and SS badges away, my buddy is making me some ZL1 emblems and i picked up some C5 Z06s (real ones) and im slapping Hoosier 315son the rear and probably Kumo 315s in the front.

Plastic Dipping **** black has just become a fng scourge....... As have black rims in general. Especially faded looking dull ones. Take those wheels off and stop the madness. Why are there dominoes (or are they bandaids?) on your fender. Stop sticking cheap **** on your car dude. And "making" some ZL-1 emblems? What is going on, head going to explode. I'm sorry man, trying not to be D but.... OMG, at least armor all your tires. Your whole wheel setup looks like it was in a forest fire 2 years ago and you just pulled burnt **** out and slapped it on your car.

So you took off your SS badges and are putting on ZL1 emblems on the car? Why? It's not a ZL1. Just so many things wrong with that car appearance wise. Why do you want 315's in the front? Paint your hood and take off those stripes and band aid stickers.

The only reason to run 315s in the front is for hardcore road racing... And this guy doesn't even do amateur road racing... Also, I totally agree with your view on the ZL1 badges. Pretty dumb.

Also, use real tire dressing and not armor all. Once it dries it makes your tires dry out and look worse. Plus it damages sidewalls.

For the sake of not looking like a trailer park prom ride, please swap back your old wheels/tires or factory ss wheels. Salad shooters look good one type of car and one type of car only, one that is in the junkyard.

I agree for the most part but I did plasti-dip my True Forged wheels since they were all polished and looked like *** within a day of cleaning and driving. Plus it allowed me to see how they will look when I get them powdercoated.

Thanks guys. Actually i do participate in Auto cross and Roadcourse racing. VIR and Moyock are where i roadrace Pungo and, ACU-4 is where i auto cross, and Richmond/ Northeastern drag way is where i used to drag race.
My c5 z06s with 315s are for my road racing days, the reason the car is stock height is because i live in a rural area and allot of driveways arent accessible with a lowered car.
That is also why my wheels are dirty...85% of the places i go are dry and covered in loose dirt. there are no car washs and im not one to waste money on appearances when the cars not being shown off.
My car is not a show car, its a DD and racecar, it is not rare and it is not valuable. its only worth 3,100 bucks. sorry its not "perfect" for you guys.
I did end up putting BMRs and bilsteins on the car though.
The headlights were damaged, i needed to buy new ones, didnt know it was a big deal to the rest of the world.
If you would like me to build my car to your specs send me money and ill get to work on it.
Zl1 emblems because eventually im getting a ls6 and the other items needed to make it a phase 1 Zl1 tribute car.
Maybe i should do what everyone else does and just throw the SS emblems or Z28 emblems on it.you know all cookie cutter and ****.
The plasti dip was used for various reasons, back when the hood was all black it was for a CHKD show and we all needed black hoods, but i guess next time i just wont give charity my money if thats how you guys feel about it.
The stripes were for GS styled stripes i was getting made, but my friend got deployed so i wont buy them till he gets back.
Lets see....i think i covered it all...hmm, oh yeah the band-aid sticker, that was a prank. One of my friends put it up there and i just never scraped it.
Not sure why you all decided to jump on me, but its not really gonna change anything.
Zex i dont believe ive ever seen you jump on someone before, maybe this sites going down hill.
Its just pictures of my car, its not like im posting in your threads with my pictures telling you guys what to do.
this is a typical yard near where i live just to show you why my car isnt
slammed and my nice wheels arent on except for shows and racedays
my road racing buddy who can vouch for me
oh...and he has 315s on all corners....on the same rims....i wonder where i got the idea.....
