Crazy. My friend just got this kit put on in Lemans. Definitely too bold for me, but I gotta say it looks unique!

Looks like you went to the right place to get the kit installed. Install looks like it was done pretty well.

Not my style... but looks unique. The more I look at it... it grows on me.

Main thing is you like it... and you had you car modded by a good shop.

It's startin' to look kinda cool... yah.

Thanks!
Yeah, Sixteen Customs did take alot of care with the paint/install - but I also spent some $$ on a good kit-didn't buy a cheap one (as was recommended by EVERYONE on this forum!)

I really like it. It really doesn't matter if some of the guys on here who are all about simplicity, and maintaining the stock look because you did not ask what they would do you just wanted to show it off, and you should. Keep the wheels Eff these guys.

Let's see a pic of the vette!!!

Looks nice but I think the wheels and ride height are really hurting the look.

I kinda like this kit on your car. Definately different. Couple of things I would suggest. I'd do maybe '06 LED tail lights and maybe something like Fikse wheels.



Still has the same style as your current wheels, somewhat.

Then I'd do an aggressive drop to round the aggressive looks of the kit. Either way, great start.

Looks good, I would change the wheels, but if you really don't want to I would put a spacer on the rear wheel and put some lower springs on the rear. The 06 LED taillight might took better too.

I like the kit. paint looks good. fitment looks good. I understand the wheels are you're taste not mine. however consider putting you're stock hood back on..it doesn't go well with you're bumper.
I think the reason everyone doesn't like you're wheels are because you'e got too much going on and the wheels add to that. simplify a few things and i think you'll have one bad a$$ Z. not that its not bad as is. I can't hate on you're Z cuz its way more modded than mine. lol.

What tire sizes are you using? Maybe a different profile would help.
