Its an 05 kit, I modified it to fit the 06, perfection is to come, but I will accomplish it. Any 06 drivers in florida, the vertex kit is the easiest to work with, that and the greddy. If you need help, I could assist, let me know.

IT is a vertex half lip, I modified it myself and painted in my home's garage, I have done 3 2006 Z's already, you can modify some of the 05 lips to fit on there, takes a bit of work, no bondo, no material to add, just cutting, and heating... Anyone in Florida, I can help.

You must buy the 05 kit, we got that one on eBay. Then modify the front to fit the 06. The sides and rear are cake.

Nice work guys.... how the heck did you manage to do all that work in your garage?? Man I gotta learn so that I can stop going to the body shop and paying an arm and a leg for paint. I paid $1300 for my last body kit install =|

Mr_Drifter - Are your front turn signal lenses just painted SS? How does this affect the light coming through? Looks sweet!

the drop on the springs in 1.0" in front and 1.2" in the rear. Do you guys think the Veilside V.1 front lip would be able to be modified the fit the '06 bumper, or should I just try the Vertex?
