Default New Mod Pix and Poll

Hey Guys,

I finally got most of my appearance mods done to my Z28.
After a ridiculous ordeal getting the SS Spoiler I thought I would post some pics to get some feedback.

I have a set of 35th Anniversary Stripes ready to install and I'm working on a billet Grille to latch a retro z/28 badge to.
I also want to put one on the rear body panel.
Other mods are Hurst shifter, Grey Leather seats and Corvette FRC set. and magnaflow if you couldn't tell.

Let me Know what you think...

Looks good! A set of smoked corners to add to the list might be a good suggestion

Do you still have the stock Z28 badge on the rear???

I think the stripes would look good depending on the color of them.

I think it looks good, shame you have to have a front plate. I dont think it will look bad with any of the things you wanna do, as long as you dont get too carried away.

Your first priority should be an SLP grille! That front plate and shitty plastic one look like poop.

Hey Guys Thanks for all the feedback I appreciate it.
-the wheels are hyper silver c6 z06 wheels
-I'm getting on ebay now for a grille that I'm gonna set up with an
infuriatingly legal plate setup and emblems
-Nix on the Berger I think I'm making it a parts bin only car Maybe Barrett Jackson would appreciate that in 2055

and yeah its not super clean either but I roll it everyday and it was pollen season Blue Metallic is infuriating to keep clean and shows every last thing...
