Well thanks to swollix and my roomie Erik We slammed the vette yesterday. Im going to raise the rear up a smidge to match the gap in the front. There is a lot more sidewall in the rear being that they are 305's, so id like to try and get them as close as possible. And yes i know its dirty (see can picture).

Enjoy

Looks good, but you have it wrong. You need to lower the front to match the rear gap :)

Lol, that is what I called it at a stop-light when we finished lowering it. Although these cars are not really a "rich man's car".


Josh it looks like your front settled nicely, we are starting to look like twins...

thanks bro HAHA, I like it a little bit


i didnt think you could lower them anymore! thats crazy low!

ya too lol thats why the back is gonna come back up slightly


fix wheel gap up front

no shit, read like the 2nd sentence LOL!


Get rid of the GTO or whatever you had? If so nice upgrade.

yup sure did :) picked up this 03 C5Z had only 10k miles on it


rich mans type r/

You are a fucking moron for even comparing to two cars... not shitting on the type but not even in the same class. and if you consider 25k a rich mans car then get a new job...


lol your wheels gap is fucked homie. lol just raise the rear to match the front big boy, and tell eric that he is a sorry ass, weak ass bitch

hey dickcheese why dont you try re-reading the first couple sentences too :2up: HAHA and Erik said you lame! LOL


are the wheels 18s and 19s? is that why the rear looks lower

Nah both are 18x10.5 but the rears are 305/35/18s and the fronts are 265/35/18's and that difference in width also makes for more sidewall, but the rear does need to come up a little to match the fronts, we just kinda ran outta time before the ran came through. The rears are also nitto 555R DR's and the fronts are Nitto NT555 extremes, so i dunno if that makes a difference.


damn that shit look good, very nice car!!!

Preciate it bro!

I always thought of getting a C5Z but it's cheaper on insurance for a LS3 Corvette. I love how they are coupes though.

07-14-2009, 08:19 AM
^ that and the LS3 is a monster... now if you had kept that LS2 vette id have said get the C5Z, now get to modding that LS3 and wake it up.

I have an exhaust And saving up for some custom ccw classics (about 5k) due to me wanting to keep 19"s in the rear and they only make 19"s upon request

Looks like dat muh fuka needs to be buffed, badly!

Looks clean and smooth. Remove the side molding and a small front lip (if even an option) would look very nice.

^ nah nikguh that thing gets buffed on the regular lol, its just dirty as a mug... I have thought about removing that front plastic piece but it sends air up and helps cool the radiator. As far as the body side moldings go I used to want to take them off, but now think they look kinda plain without them.

yea dont mess with air dams,lol.....i lowered my camaro little over 1 1/2 in the front,so that thing was almost on the ground. so i took it off,then instantly started wanting to run hot on the hwy...so i cut it down and put it back on there,runs perfect again.
