looks ok but not leaps and bounds better than stock.

not a fan of the factory paint matched headlights either.

exhaust probably sounds sick.

needs a drap badly.

Nice wheels! They look similar to stock though. I also dislike the colomatched headlights. They make the car look cheap.

didn't want to look leaps and bounds better than stock cause i love the look of the c6 stock.to me it doesn't need a kit or anything. i just wanted some wheels similar to stock but in chrome and with a slightly aggressive offset.I had the polished 5 spoke and they are hard to keep clean and shiny. I love the painted light housings..one of my favorites about the car. I didn't want to drop it since i already scrape the front air black spoiler as it is all the time on driveways and stuff.

I love people that get butt hurt when they don't hear sugarcoated things.

I like the C6 a lot and I think your's looks OK. I am not a fan of the headlights you paint matched, and the wheels look like stock if not a little better. its your car and it sounds like you accomplished what you wanted to accomplish.

I bet that exhaust sounds killer. Funny, how people trash magnaflow as a 'budget shitty' exhaust for the Z, but it's respected on domestics. I love my magnaflow setup.

all c6's come with painted headlights to match the car..it's stock..i love how my magnaflow sounds..it's not loud at all but gives it a nice really low mellow tone and it doesn't burble.

Cambo............your car looks great. I love the chrome wheels. It is fairly obvious some people on here don't have a clue about Corvettes. I couldn't believe the comment about the color matched headlights. Stock is stock and they look great. Beautiful car.........................

I think your car looks awesome! Yeah chrome wheels are going out of style but they always look great on a vette, not a Z.
