My new look!!!-imag0294.jpg

My new look!!!-imag0297.jpg


if your painting the grills then just do 3 coats waiting 15 mins in between... but if your painting on your bumpers or anything that has to be taped off then take the tape off before it dries... do 3 even coats back to back and when you are happy, immediately take off the tape... trust me if you dont then the plasti dip will come off with the tape and you will have to cut it with a razor... if you take it off before it dries then youll have a nice clean line...

Hey atoler27, have you painted the inside of your headlights? If so, how difficult was that?

I saw your car at LS fest, it looks good. I had the silver V with black wheels. Did you put yours on the dyno?

I spent most of the time in the pits since I was mostly there just to support my buddy who you might have seen in the T/A with the crazy multi color wrap. I figured why not dyno since it was free. We're still working on the tune but it put down 392 so I was pretty happy with that. Little more tuning and I think we can pull 400 out of it. It's got TV2 cam, headers and CAI.

well let me start off by saying that the c5 z06 with lt's cold air and tune ran 391 last year... and same car same everything ran 360 on that dyno... soo right then i was a lil weary...
i went ahead and drove it up and first with cutouts closed and ran like 335 and with them open was like 336 and closed again 337... the cutouts open should have made it loose about 15 hp's... the guys that ran the dyno couldnt understand it either cause they thought that it should have dropped around 15 also... soo idk... well i have lt's, intake, w4m tune... 335 is what a stock cts-v should run.... there two people that were ahead of me were disapointed also... my air/fuel looked good also

I love the front bumper like that. You should do the rims black now.

I think it would look even better in a dark gray instead of black. Hmmmmm

I still havnt had a chance to do this! Anyone wanna do a mod party? We just need a spot big enough for everyones cars! I think we have enough peops in the area to make this happen! Simple mods like the grill,bumpers mods and even lowering I think would be cool!
