Default 00 Formula, So what do you think?
Good or bad, I took some pictures of the bird sorry my camara is not the best. But i am taking all suggestions on apperence issues! The only other thing I am thinking of doing is adding side stripes with the flag design! so what do u think? It's dirty in the last two pictures sorry!

I don't like black wheels personally, but the color theme does go with your car, and looks good.

What about getting them powdercoated white? Or perhaps a different set of wheels in white? I generally don't like painted or powdercoated wheels, but I have always found white wheels on a white car look great. To my knowledge, I have never seen white Z06 wheels ever, so you'd be really original looking. Just a thought.

It looks great! Not bad, but a side stripe would make it worse looking IMO
Don't do it!

Agreed dont do the side stripe.. It will be too much. I think its perfect as is. Also you have to leave the black wheels. It all matches with the ceta and hood stripe

Looks great but I'm not a fan of the wheels. Don't do a side stripe and perhaps consider trading the ZO6s for some black painted TT2's. Other than that, nice ride.

Nice formula, but bad idea on the side stripe and I suggest you change the tips since the formula bumper exposes them more so.

Looks good! I'm with everyone else on not doing the stripe kit. Would be too much for the car...keep it clean. Also, like others have said, nightshade the turn signals and rear signals.

I'm not a big fan of the black wheels either, but I think some black torque thrust II's with a polished lip would look good.
