Car looks great. Are the C5's chrome or that well polished? But for the exhaust, I'd take it to a shop and see what they can do. When I had my Corsa Clones put on, the guy had em way to low cause he thought they would melt the bumper if any closer so I took it to my guy and he fixed me right up and haven't looked back since other than there not big enough to me cause there the AfterThought's ones.

Thanks man. I actually bought new ones for the front when i bought my brakes, EBC Rotors and Hawk pads so i took everything off and just painted them with caliper paint. Was simple and i really thought it looked good all around matching the Red up. Took a few coats but was well worth the 8 dollar can of paint
Thanks for the reply and again, sick SS man.

And yeah, I forgot to mention, I think the Camaro decal on the calipers looks great! I plan to do a bright red similar to yours for sure if I can find it. Where did you get the paint from exacty if you don't mind me asking?
I would do the Camaro decal as well since you mentioned it's like a couple of bucks, but I don't know if I could justify it since my car is stock. Would be kind of overboard for my car, but damn, it's a great addition to yours!

Hey man, your not the only one that thinks that about the C5's. I just wish OE followed through and made em 17x11 DD for the rear. They would have made there money's worth if they made them.

I appreciate the compliment, my car is stone stock for now, minus window tint, but it's a work in progress. We all have to start somewhere I suppose
