keep the sleak beak cause mostly everyone looses them. VHT for rear and side markers, lower it and some black wheels. That would look oh so sexy. and maybe some different tips if your bored with those.

Here's what I have to say, Jonas.

Can't lower it??? Bullsh1t! I'm slammed with the same exhaust as you and I'm fine. Although my mufflers are by the tips.

Yes, get rid of the bird.

Black out the filler panel....looks much cleaner. Do the Ceta mod too if you haven't already.

*whoring out picture*


I dunno what theme you want color wise, but the Pontiac fill-ins too.

Nice license plate frame

Wheels for sure, I guess you want the C6 ones with some fatties in the back.

Paint the calipers, probably red since your car is too.

Here's my suggestion:

-Gloss Black A Pillar
-Gloss Black CETA
-Get some nice dummy tips hung (open holes look incomplete to me)
-C6 wheels don't flow with these cars at all IMO, so TTII's 17x9.5's/17x11's or Chrome ZR1's. (I think black centers would be too much)
-DragonZ28's machined inserts and 'Ram Air' badges for the new hood.
-A good detail

I'd call it a day after that.
